What is a VIP member?

VIP members are allowed access to R&D. Any other features I am unaware of. You get it after being a member for some period of time, i believe. Could be wrong.

Petition to remove VIP usergroup? What does it do other than allow access to R&D?

Those who had VIP back when the old requirements were in place (which I believe were something as ridiculously low as just 30+ rep, nothing else) were allowed to retain their VIP status once the new requirements were put in place.

Here's the thread that oops made when he first made the VIP rank:

EDIT:

Nevermind, I did more research and it looks like 100+ rep isn't actually a requirement. Just 500+ post count and been a member for 6+ months, according to this thread:

That is correct glip.
100 rep was found to be too easy to obtain.

How easy it is to obtain shouldn't matter if its an additional requirement. They would still have to have been here for 6 months and have 500+ post count (which are just as easy to obtain if not easier, it just takes longer), just the 100 rep would show that atleast someone likes them. I say the 100+ rep req should be added.


I don't have 500+ posts.

*cough*

You are post farming and double posting. I request all of my posts in this thread are deleted with the previous two ones Brendan posted when the mods lock this.
