+emurock Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 My Premium Membership expired about a month ago, but I can still go to the off-topic and in the groups part of my avatar it stills says Premium Member. But all my other Premium Membership benefits went away when my membership expired, so can someone get this fix?
Keystone Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 The Groundspeak Forums run on a separate server from the Geocaching.com website. You have to go to the "Entering the Forums" page to update your account information so that it carries over from the website to the forums. This is true regardless of whether you've changed from regular to premium or premium to regular, if you've just modified your signature line, or if you've chosen a new avatar.

Well, I have done that already and I have log out and then back on. But that still does not work, so I'm all out of ideas on what to do.

+Lil Devil Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Huh. Your premium membership expired, yet you're still getting some of the benefits. And you're complaining I don't get it

Perhaps you should just continue to make use of your Premium Member status in the forums for a while longer.

I had this little "problem" as well when I let my membership lapse during a slow caching season in my life, but I don't remember it being a big deal.
