Not all Plats will be able to renew , that is the sad news. Most will but not all.
Some Gold will have a chance to renew to Platinum , most wont.
A few new members WILL get the chance to jump right onboard as a Platinum member.
I will say this , the way our Admins think , the more activity you bring to the Forum (being active) WILL make a significant impact on the next cycle. So everyone will have a chance to
get a Platinum , it is up to you AND of course some luck goes with that as well.
UPDATE on this new renewal cycle :
ALL invites have been sent out to the Platinum Members who are going to be invited this cycle.
YOU dont have to really worry about you maybe not getting an Email or that it ends up somewhere in a different Folder because all you have to do is either be logged in already or log in and you will see the notification there where Notifications are kept.
Ive added a few screenshots to help.
1. Look up towards the right part of the screen , you will see the BELL icon , that is where your Notifications that you receive from the System are kept.
2. Once you find it and hoover over it, it will show you what the symbol is for .....
3. Click on it and it will show you the Notifications you have , after that just click on it and it will take you to where you need to go ... just like magic ...
So GOLD members will be invited tomorrow (my time) , i dont know the exact time so YES you will have to check in every now and then . We will let you know when the invites have been sent , you will need to act realively fast but it should be enough time so no need to get all stressed out over it.
Take care
