[UPDATED] BHW Member Levels

[nextime]

That actually explains a lot

You need to be a paid up member (Jr VIP/Premium Member or Market Place Seller) to respond to people that have posted in that section.

The only exception is if you have started a thread there as you're looking to hire someone or buy something.

Guys I probably used wrong words, main idea that registered member have lack of permission to reply in thread, but at the same time have enough permissions to write direct message through private conversation. I see that nothing said about private message, just about reply in thread only. I want get official position of administration about this issue.

 

[proxygo]

if your trying to reply to users seeking people to work on a task.
only payed members/sellers can do that on bhw.
un paid members can only list a job that needs doing

That was already addressed by a staff member in the HAF rules thread:
https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/rules-posting-in-hire-a-freelancer.951769/page-2#post-10910409

This is just a reminder that yellow members are not allowed to circumvent the rules highlighted in this thread by selling via PM.

Anyone caught selling via PM will receive an infraction.

Another staff member clarified that the restriction extends to communication outside the forum as well:
https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/f...past-years-around-here.1004839/#post-10771131

Unless you are a paid member you cannot respond to any requests in the HAF or WTB sections in any form which includes in the thread, via PM, Skype, Email etc.

Thanks a lot, now cleared at 100%, it should be better to put this information into this thread too: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/updated-bhw-member-levels.889577/
This moment wasn't enough obvious for me and I think for others too.

Awesome reference to know where you stand (or how far you need to go to access certain abilities).

Is it possible to switch from premium member to Jr VIP,
Say now I have donated $97 and become Premium Member, After the criteria is met, Can I change from Premium member to Jr VIP?
Or again I need to pay if I want to upgrade?

You won't be able to switch from Premium to Jr VIP, you would have to pay another $97 to upgrade to Jr VIP once you met the eligibility criteria.

i got it.

i want PM somebody , so i must post more before.

"I believe you need 50 posts to start conversations."

"I believe you need 50 posts to start conversations."

You need 15 posts, not 50.

 

[ljbawss]

If I want to open 1 sales thread for selling IG accounts I need:
100 posts, pay 97 for Jr. VIp, pay 30 for a sales thread, or
100 posts, pay 97 for Premium, pay 97 for Jr. Vip, pay 30 for sales thread?

I always thought the first option but then I don't see the reason someone would pay to be Premium instead of Jr. Vip for the same price

Guys, may I ask if I can order the Jr.VIP membership while paying monthly fees instead of locking myself down to the annual tier? Furthermore, does the Jr. VIP membership allows for new marketplace threads (I guess it does, but need to double check, as I want to start providing some cool services here). Thanks!

You must've gotten that from an old thread.

When the forum was upgraded to Xenforo, it was bumped up to 50 briefly before being brought back down to 15 posts like it used to be.

 

[rafark]

I'm blue!!

Yes, I'd like a cookie.

 

[hem98]

Even I am waiting for upgrading by membership hope I will reach the 100 mark soon.

 

[TigerShadow]

so if I get the premium member will I then have to pay again to get the Jr. Vip once I'm capable or will it just roll into that? I deff wanna support BHW!

 

[Th3_MAD_HATTER]

so i have to pay 500$ to sell on the marketplace?

 

[Sephrata]

so i have to pay 500$ to sell on the marketplace?

If you have Jr VIP (100 posts/60 days membership), it's $30 I believe.

If you don't have Jr VIP, you need to buy the Market Place Seller membership for $500.

If you don't have Jr VIP, you need to buy the Market Place Seller membership for $500.

Actually you need to pay to upgrade to either Jr. VIP ($97) or Marketplace Seller ($497) depending on what you are able to upgrade to in addition to the $30 listing fee upon approval.
