New membership clarification.

Post by Mark07 »

Evening all,

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask!

I've been a registered guest on the forums for a while now but have recently become a paying member which I paid for through Paypal on the site. Just for confirmation, do I receive my members information via post? I've not had any confirmation email from the BCSS or anything just the Paypal confirmation of payment which was paid on Tuesday. I'm just wondering if it all went through ok :smile:

Thanks in advance.

Mark.

Welcome. I found the same thing when I joined before Christmas but I have to say the welcome pack is good so worth the wait.

Welcome.
It may take a while for your pack to arrive in these somewhat difficult times ..... but it's worth waiting for.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Thanks for the replies all. Fully understand and expect a delay with postage given the current circumstances I just wanted to check there wasn’t anything I’d missed. All good.

Thanks,
Mark.

Hi Mark did you get your pack?

I have been wondering what is a Registered Guest anyway?, is it a manual moderator action to turn it so it says BCSS Member in ones profile? something to do with joining a usergroup once paid up?.
I have noticed that i can't reply to some posts and the only ones who do reply say BCSS Member in their profile.

There is a space in the profile where you can type your BCSS membership number.

To change from Registered Guest to BCSS Member you also need to go to your User Control Panel, Usergroups and select BCSS Members group.

You will eventually gain access then to more sub-forums.
