I know some members may not agree but I believe that being a Jr. VIP and paying the money validates that you actually can make money online and afford the service. Actually, it should be an unwritten rule(highly suggested) that if you dont make money from online activities then you shouldn't pay for Jr. VIP. In other words, if you pay for Jr. VIP by way of a regular 9-5 job, then, you should be considered a low life piece of shit, a cheat, and, not recognized as a true member of the vip section.
As for the mini vip etc...what purpose does it serve? I understand that $97 is alot in some countries, but, for real if you search hard enough in this forum you can formulate enough ideas in the regular forum to create something. Hell get a job and do IM on the side. C'mon
