    Haylo, Mid here. Today, I would like to ask why isn't blogs for everyone? OK sure, you guys are saying that some people might misuse it & blah, blah, blah....... But what if you put limits like only members with (insert a number above 300 here) post get access to blogs?

    Sometimes, I just have some juicy things I wanna share or either express my feelings, I can't due to no access to blogs. If you say I can use VM, that's more inconvenient & public (Yes, blogs are public too but less people notice).

    Please give answers & feedback.

    It's just because of a supporter perk. There is a post minimum for it, but it's 5,000 so most people who reach that point are already a supporter for various other reasons (donated themselves, a friend donated for them, won a contest).

    No one abuses the larger avatars that are available to supporters either, it's just a perk that they get for donating money to PC.

    Edit: To add to this, think of it this way: if there were no perks, chances are next to no one would donate to PC. Obviously, this perk is very appealing to you. Makes you want to donate, yeah? In that sense, the perk is doing its job as an incentive to donate money to PC.
     
    Blogs are only available to members with 5000+ post count and Supporters of Tier 3+.

    If everyone had blogs, it wouldn't be as special and there would be so much clutter, it would lose the appeal.​
     
    Oh, thnx for sharing with me guys. I guess I have to wait till I can donate or if someone donates for me.
     
    I realize this thread is pretty much done and dusted, but may I suggest getting a Tumblr? I don't know just what you want to share to PC, but it's at least worth looking into.
     
    OK, I shall consider since my parents are quite wary of what sites I surf.
