So I just became a Premium Member...
posted Saturday, March 05, 2005 - 10:57 PM (#25751)
And I paid my money partly because I'd read the first chapter of Patnet Pending and wanted to read more. Also because I think that Goats rocks and wanted to support Jon and Phillip. But Patent Penidng was a significant part of the decision.

So it was pretty dang disappointing to see that there was only one other chapter. Which ends in a cliff-hanger. But which hasn't been continued in over two years.

Jon, is there ANY chance of ever continuing it? If not, what about identifying it as a project which started and didn't get resolved, so that suckers like me won't find themselves saying "So that's it??" to their screens?

Hey, $20 for a year and then I can post pictures? That might be worth it for a good Picture Association Thread. (Or maybe a Dis-Association Thread...)

Sorry, I just looked at the list of stuff Premium members get in response to Llamarama's question. I'm a bit random-access sometimes.

By definition, the Face of Poop has less right than a registered member to decide what's acceptable here. Please register (it's fun and free!), and then you can toss in your $0.02; until then, we'll just make fun of you for poor spelling and speaking out of turn.

Llamarama, Patent Pending hasn't been worked on since 2002; it says Nov 2002 right on the Premium homepage. We weren't hiding it from you.

I may get back to it eventually, but not likely anytime soon. There are other priorities.

That said, if you want a refund, email me and I can arrange for that.

You should have just gone for the Super-Premium, because then you wouldn't be here bitching. I did the same thing as yourself; however; I don't think that I really whinged about it. If I'm wrong please feel free to point this out. I vaguely remember being dissappointed; but I don't think that I went so far as to make a thread purely for complaining that Jon might have better things to do than entertain me while I'm at work.

I actually joined for the Members-only Forum, and that hasn't been worked on (properly) since about September last year.

How ripped off do you reckon I feel?

What's wrong with the Members-Only forum?

None of those members appreciate when i slather them with Crisco and attempt to make them vanish.
