VMP Roll Call
65There was some talk about how many old school VMPs are still left on one of the multiple threads from $4.99 members wondering why they couldn’t buy VMP deals.
If you’re still a VMP, reply here.
If we don’t chit chat, it will be really easy to look at the reply count. I bet we can’t pull that one off.
If you have a heart badge and reply here, you will have the difference explained to you, probably be mercilessly mocked, we will have chit chatted, and the count will be thrown off. Then we’ll have to increase the count carl669 maintains.

@Nate311 OK, I’m really slow, but I just connected that with this:
Here!
Hey!
Hello.
Hi!
pretty sure I am…
I will have to look at the symbol after this post. lol
i was a kickstarter at casemates… wonder if my symbol is different there??
i don’t post that much and never really pay much attention to the symbols.
edit…just looked i am!!!
Hmm
Is this gonna end up putting us on some kinda hit list? Someone just tracking vmps and they’re gonna steal our accounts
I THINK I’m an OG VMP… I have never let it lapse and got it immediately.
I’m just here to chit chat. What’s everyone up to?
@warpedrotors every time I scroll thru this post l, this comment makes me laugh out loud.
@warpedrotors did you say kit kat?
Shibbity schibbity schwah.
Hey hoo! Count me in.
I don’t have a heart. Does that mean I’m a VMP?
@mehcuda67 I think that makes you the Tin Man.
VMP present. You’re welcome for making you rich.
@Michaelforman You may want to get your eyes checked.
@Michaelforman OH EM GEE

@Michaelforman No, no you aren’t. Go back in time and sign up.

What do I win for participating in this thread?
I think I got some free VMP time clicking on Christmas day of 2014. Apparently nearly 6 years later I’m still here.
@jchizmar I’m pretty sure I got here the same way. VMP since December 2014.
Hi people
@rollingupbynow Sorry, heart members are NOT VMP. VMP is an old membership program that was discontinued years ago, the people with V emblems are the VMPs and have paid for it continuously since then. We can’t drop out, you can drop yours and come back anytime.
/giphy you get nothing you lose good day sir
And the count is off by two now. Edit: I called it, we didn’t make sunrise.
Giphy has failed me and the edit window expired. I should have left one of the more interesting results up.
@rollingupbynow
@djslack what’s the count at?
@moonhat idk, I was asking for some friends (@Barney @chienfou @KNmeh7 @RiotDemon @Wookee) in another thread.
My rough guesstimate puts us just north of 300, maybe 302 so far. Someone not lazy has been doing the math, I’m sure. It would be close to take the post count and subtract the number of French kniggits on the page. But it’s likely just the tip of the VMP iceberg, there are bound to be many that never come to the forums.
The neat thing is how many people I’ve seen post that we don’t see posting around here much. Hello, quiet VMPs!
@Barney @chienfou @djslack @KNmeh7 @RiotDemon @Wookee I agree! Hello quiet ones!!
/giphy shhh
Hi
/giphy hello there
Hiya
We should get that volmod that likes deleting posts to erase the heart members posts.
@therealjrn oof.
Maybe if the comments are left, we can educate the unwise.
@RiotDemon There’s no educating them. The best we can hope for is to keep them out of our thread and in their place.
@RiotDemon
@therealjrn segregation isn’t necessary. We can coexist.
@RiotDemon @therealjrn
It’s not segregation. It’s gentrification of the populi mediocritus.
Kind of like that movie Platform. We’re still all in the same hole.

There are still more VMPs than I think most people would expect.
The potential prospect of another pair of socks is apparently irresistible for $5/month.
Yo!
Is this where we sign up for the next batch of socks?
Hey - August 2015!
@lmw516 Actually… November 2014!
been wasting my precious time and money since 2016… A credit card lapse reset my VMP start date to Oct 2017.
I’m a just-after-Kickstarter VMP.
So, who’s gonna count how many of us there are?
@grobbins
That’s on you! No fancy K by my name!
Ding
I exist.
Since kickstart
@Quantumcat But you don’t have a K badge (unless it’s on another account). Also, the earliest you could get VMP was Day 0.
@msklzannie I can assure you I was a backer on Kickstarter, (#1116) I guess I am not special like you for having the “K”
@msklzannie @Quantumcat That 1116 number that you are flashing around is your lab rat number and not a Kickstarter number. The lab rats came before the Kickstarter. Since you don’t have a K, it looks like for some reason or another, you missed the boat. Lots of people did – they ignored the email.
@barnabee @msklzannie Not sure what your issue is, but I can assure you that I was a Kickstarter supporter, and that #1116 was DIRECTLY from my pledge page on Kickstarter. I do not know what I did to offend you, but I do NOT like to to be accused of lying. Drop it now or be reported.
@barnabee @msklzannie @Quantumcat
Weeeoooo weeeeeeooooo
Forum police here, what seems to be the problem?
@Quantumcat Is that the Casemates KIckstart number? That might be the misunderstanding here.
@Quantumcat @speediedelivery @msklzannie @RiotDemon
Damn that @barnabee, I can’t leave her alone for a minute and she gets in trouble.
@barnabee @msklzannie @Quantumcat Pics or it didn’t happen.
@barnabee @msklzannie @Quantumcat @sammydog01 Just add fuel to the fire, why don’t you?
@Barney I was bored.
@barnabee @msklzannie @Quantumcat @RiotDemon RD/Forum Police, you are adorable. I totally laughed out loud
Kickstarter and then VMP since Day 0.

In the beginning, there were VMPs.
August 2015, with no socks, no t-shirts, no free stuff
@dolphinone
Ditto for all 3
@dolphinone Free stuff is a lie.
Still a vmp!
Since July 2014, with my sword and magic helmet, a Kickstarter K, and my Mediocre V!
@LaVikinga Aw, shucks. I miss you.
You know, the ONLY reason I have VMP is for shipping on wine. It’s saved me a bunch of money, over time. Casemates owns my soul, such as it is.
@Shrdlu You had a soul?!?! Who knew!
@Shrdlu Woman! I was thinking about you yesterday and wondering how you’re getting along. The day went sideways and I didn’t get back here to whisper in your direction.
My wine consumption has dropped tremendously. I’m still working my way through a case I bought from Meh a few months ago.
@LaVikinga I still have it set up that when someone replies to me, it sends me an email. It took a while to track down your response, but here I am.
I’m fine, mostly, although the years have caught up with me, a bit. I miss the old days; I really really do. Then again, everyone does, sooner or later.
I drink a glass of wine almost every day, either with dinner, or after it. I was astonished to be chosen as a lab rat over on Casemates (by someone newish, and I chastised her in public, poor thing), and it was a white wine on top of it. I did end up drinking it, and it was okay, but nothing to write home about. Too bad it wasn’t a Cabernet Sauvignon, but that’s the way it goes. If you’re going to annoy me, go all out.
I hope that life is treating you and yours well. XXOO

Don’t forget me.
Sorry, but that’s privileged information, and I try to avoid answering surveys that are designed to invade my privacy, glom my password reset secret questions, and eventually steal my identity.
Next, you’ll ask for my mother’s maiden name, but you’ll have to find out on your own that it’s Smithe, with an “e”.
Nice try; better luck next time.
Day 1 still here. Had a 1 week lapse due to my CC getting stolen, but yeah.
My VMP should be from 2014 but it lapsed due to a compromised credit card in 2016. Before I got a chance to update it I crashed my bicycle and forgot.
@yakkoTDI You should’na done that.
@yakkoTDI
Ow! yeah, I can see why… That’s an unusual break. Did you have to have fixators/pins?
@yakkoTDI ouch!!
@cranky1950 Probably not but at least the bicycle was ok. The funny thing is that we had done all the hard trails. We were heading back to the car riding on double track. I was riding a Salsa Bucksaw which has 3.8" wide tyres but I managed to get enough speed to lose traction in a curve.
@chienfou Not that unusual due to the way I crashed. I was leaning into a turn and lost traction. When I hit the ground and started to roll the leg was trapped and snapped when it could no longer resist. Titanium rod up the tibia and 5 bolts. Normally it would be 4 bolts (2 at top and 2 at bottom from the sides) but what you can’t see in this X-ray is that the spiral fracture also has a vertical fracture. I got a 5th bolt in the ankle to make sure it didn’t twist before healing. It is the only bolt that causes me any discomfort/pain.
The ankle bolt.
@yakkoTDI That looks like it hurt! I crashed my bike in 2018 and broke three ribs.
![Rib xray][1]
[1]:
@BadTouchRobot Actually all the pain has been since the recovery. I did no muscle, tendon or nerve damage in the crash. The ankle bolt is the worst because there is no padding between it and the tendons.
I crashed in 2018 as well but I only lightly bruised my ribs in that crash. That hurt like hell so I am sure yours was much worse.
@yakkoTDI Every yawn, sneeze, hiccup, burp, etc felt like being stabbed in the side. Sometimes, just sitting there, the muscles would spasm for seemingly no reason. Damn, that would hurt. Now, when I see someone in a movie or TV show getting kicked in the ribs, I’m like “Don’t do that! You don’t realize how bad that hurts!”

¡HOLA!
Can someone please tell me what the hell is with heart? I jumped into VMP as soon it was offered. Unfortunately my CC got comprised and I forgot to update my VMP. However, for the sake of being a snooty show off I am one of the original Mediocre lab rats, number 219. And that predates Meh.
@Teripie heart means regular membership. It’s like VMP light.
@Teripie I think the count started about VMP hour at mehrathons and how many people are competing for irks. That’s a vmp benefit not a Kickstarter benefit. Although being a Kickstarter is cooler.

Doesn’t look like the reply count plan is entirely working. Anyhow I’m the most mediocre person I know.
@Qylvaran well, it’s actually not that bad. You have comments and replies. Comments are the main one, like what you just said. Replies are like my comment. There has only been a handful of comments that are not VMP. Easy to get an idea from looking at the numbers at the top of the thread.
But I don’t know why.
(I have been very curious about this, thanks for asking).
VMP since week 1, missed less than one day due to cc renewal and it reset to 2017.
I’ll always look back fondly on that partial day of minimal mediocrehood. It was glorious, and will fill a whole chapter in my memoirs.

@lonnyzone
What is the heart ones?
@darkzrobe not an og vmp.
@lisaviolet is it a newer one? Or one of their shipping deals?
@darkzrobe They had discontinued the original (with the V), then started another one (with the heart), which is actually a penny less a month than the original.
Have you seen the poop badges? Those are folks who let their VMP lapse. lol
But the OVMP still have a couple of perks, like during the mehrathons and I believe products that don’t sell out during the initial 24 hour period, but I could be wrong on that. Someone here will set me straight, you can count on that.
@darkzrobe @lisaviolet indeed… As an ex vmp and an ex and future poop, I can confirm you become a poop if your membership expires and when you rejoin you can’t rejoin as a VMP only as a regular member.
I cancel when going on barren streak with no purchases and pick it back up when I want to buy.
Probably doesn’t save me much money cancelling and rejoining… And for 2020 since I missed out on the free pasta drop for VMPs it probably set me behind… I had to pay for my first pasta like a barbarian.
@OnionSoup but only the first 100 who bought in each drop got the free pasta and as we can tell from here way more than 100 VMP’s.
@Kidsandliz @OnionSoup yeah I missed it

@oppodude @The_Tim y’all made me curious about mine…
@earlyre @oppodude @The_Tim so what did everyone get for their kickstarter? I was a little late to the party
@oppodude @The_Tim @tinamarie1974 not sure about the $5 level for the other 2, but I got Day Zero access to the site, and a Fuko…
@earlyre @The_Tim @tinamarie1974 yup. Same deal. Just got in early.
@The_Tim Apparently I was backer 871. Where was I?!
So say we all.
This is starting to feel like a very expensive endeavor. Alas, here I am.
Outing myself as a long term sucker! Hi everyone!
I was one for a long time, then my payment lapsed, then I bought my way back into the program through the Kickstarter! Someday I hope they follow up on the ancient promise of sending free stuff that isn’t a coupon!
@paulg1982 the pastadrop coupon ended up getting me 100lbs of pasta.
Really thought I would have made it to MMP (Most Mediocre Person) by now.
Since October 2014… I slacked a bit in buying it. My guess is 1-5k of us left
Oh good- I thought I was going to be really late to this thread, but I’m only fashionably late. Original VMP here.
Hello.
at this point I’m pot committed.
@abmille Right? I barely use my mehmbership, but I feel like somehow I’ll regret canceling it. Uggghh.
I was a woot refugee.
Gotta keep that VMP to have a better chance at an IRK.
@billlbo don’t count on it…doesn’t work that way usually for me

Even if I don’t buy that much from here, that $5 I spend is worth it just for the laughs.

@Zelucifer Thank you. This makes me feel a little better about my unwillingness to cancel my unused mehmbership.

@Tankshock free upvotes for every single VMP in the thread, but only the VMPs. took way longer than i expected it to lol
@Tankshock Certain badges “outrank” the VMP shield in the in the hierarchy of badges: octupus, flask, 1st aid kit, goat, dead goat, and Kickstarter. I’m not saying they’re “better” than the VMP badge, just that an individual could have one of the other badges showing and also be VMP. As long as someone doesn’t have their profile hidden, you can see all the badges they have by clicking on their name.
@moonhat is why there are no summer holidays in June.

Original VMP date was 2014, last re-upped in 2016. In addition to ‘free’ shipping on several great deals and many seriously mediocre ones, I’ve enjoyed free stuff like socks, Irk phone stand, USB charger adapter, a mercy fuko, and most recently…200 lbs. of pastadrop linguini.
I was a VMP from nearly the beginning (Meh Socks giveaway era) became inadvertently lapsed due to a re-issued credit card and re-established via the Casemates Kickstarter.

VMP since July 2015. Most mediocre club I’ve ever joined (or let me join…)
@uncrph90 I wouldn’t belong to any club that would have me as a member.
Still onboard here!
Present!
Long time VMP here. I had a small issue, and now my account reflects an impossible January 2020 date.
VMP here. Been a member since August of 2015

Still here. Just not as often.

Ich bin ein VMP.
I’m late, but I’m here
Yo
Definitely not a VMP. Too late to the party [sniff].
First time ever replying, just to say still here even after a few years now.
Awesome
VAN GOGH! MANGO! TANGO! AWESOME!
VMP member present
Keeping a credit card active $5/month.

Howdy!
Aye, VMP here.
Yes
Me!
'sup?
Joined in Aug 2014, but didn’t VMP up until Feb 15. My $325 spent on VMP over the years has been … okay.
I’m very mediocre.
Still here
OG VMP, y’all.
Sup.
Dodedoo
I’ve been a Very Mediocre Person since July 2015
Hi
Yep. VMP all the way
Super Meh since Feb 2017
Literally my first comment. It’s a very mediocre comment, for a VMP’s first comment.
yep
Lot more of us than I realized. Too busy to watch for the IRKs today and I will admit I have considered letting VMP go a lot lately. My last couple IRKs were incredibly regretful I must say. Curious to see what today’s round brings.
I too am a VMP
Yo!
What up?
VMP since July 10th 2014
Do i get a cookie?
What’s the count up to now?
@username at least 340.
VMP Kickstarter, checking-in.

Hello,here since August 2014
Me
Hi!
I am a robot. A robot who misses speaker docks.
Hi, I’m a VMP since the beginning, or November 2014, whichever is more meh. I also did the Kickstarter thing.
What does all of this mean? I don’t know, but maybe someone here does.
/giphy happy birthday meh
VMP since April 2015.
/giphy very mediocre person
Kickstarter and VMP since Nov 2014
VMP for life
Where is King Chit of Chatterland? VMP here.
June 2016. Such a baby.
Here. Or there. Maybe somewhere else.
Just curious…am I the only VMP that’s NEVER been able to get in on an IRK? Perhaps they could someday offer 1 guaranteed one to each VMP???
@pictureone
/giphy my sympathies
@RiotDemon …that giphy might be better than any IRK I might have received…
Just saw this. Kickstarter and VMP August 2014
I’d reply in here, but can’t be arsed to.
I joined meh with the Kickstarter 2467 days ago on October 8th, 2013.
I’ve been a VMP member since May 2016 contributing much to the meh coffers.
Present.
+1
I’m a VMP!
Me!
@EwingKlipspring sorry, you are not VMP, just a member.
@RiotDemon Thank you. I stand corrected. I had been, but now that I think about it, it lapsed somehow. When I rejoined, I guess it was different.
I am ashamed.
@EwingKlipspring vmp was discontinued years ago. Sometimes support will reinstate you if you didn’t lapse for very long.
Add me to the list.
VMP member since June 2015
I don’t know how I missed this thread… Maybe because I hate roll calls… I guess. I had never thought about it before, but it stands to reason that my absence from this thread to date indicates a deep hatred of roll calls. But I do love me my refrigerated extra fresh batteries. Those make up for roll calls.
VMP since September 3rd, 2014. Dead goat badge notwithstanding…
That’s @OnionSoup’s fault.
me!
VMP since June 2015
I have the VMP but I think it’s on my husband’s account, but I’m the one that tells him to buy stuff.
Who among us
I got your fucking VMP right here fucker.
Present!
Here. How am I finding out about this thread now?
Joined in August 2014. My first purchase was a Powernow 10,000 mAh powerbank.
I still use it to this day.
@JT954 I have this in purple still
@JT954 @tightwad I have a purple one too.
VMP since 2015, checking in!. Some of my most treasured purchases are actually Meh shirts. My wife steals them all the time.
April, 2016
Love the Meh-offs and the two-for-Tuesdays!
And here I thought a was a special kind of mediocre.
sup
still wondering if vmp is worth it
I am VMP. Hard to let go, but I don’t really buy enough anymore. It probably evens out. Try to average about 1 item per month…
Nobody here but us chickens!
Hey everyone

Thanks for this. Me. Since forever. And it’s been great therapy of late.

oh my
here we go again
Anseo
Still in.
I’d love to see a bar graph of how many still-current VMPs are from each month and year. I’m guessing most are from early 2017, with smaller spikes in the beginning and for the Casemates Kickstarter.
Still here!! 2016
@DTominator Oops, just noticed that this thread was started last year and responded then, too. Thought it was a new count. Sorry.
@DTominator Not your fault. @Jayman007 started this necro-clusterfuck yesterday.
https://meh.com/forum/topics/vmp-roll-call#60bae31a27dd84001b200d86
Still holding on. Keep small business alive!
Ohai
Ok, well now I’ve lost count
Still here.
I didn’t see this thread the first time around apparently… but present.
Also, if you have been paying VMP since the beginning, you’ve donated about $400 to the cause. You’re welcome.
@ongware Minus shipping for the second orders of each month that you bought multiple things…
@Kyeh @ongware
on here, morningsave/sidedeal and casemates. one casemates order can equal 2 months worth depending.
@Kyeh Nope, I’m going with the theory of VMP, or not part of this site at all. Nothing in-between.
maybe this needs a new thread? teehee

Aw, hell no!

I’m still here . Got a vmp challenge coin on the last IRK, along more pasta than one eaten in the last 5 years
@TheGreatNico what vmp challenge coin?
@Noddy93 This
@TheGreatNico ah… that’s not a VMP thing. that coin was for being in the Schrödinger’s Tootbrush Club. Had to do with the Quip Toofbrush sale/lawsuit/nonsense.
i was afraid I’d missed out on an old VMP perk.
Still alive. Haven’t bought anything in a long time so thinking of dropping VMP just to get the Poo Badge.
@mfladd we’ve descended into chitchat already, so let me take this opportunity to say howdy, familiar person!
/giphy howdy
@mfladd yeahhhhhhh so glad you are alive… how are the kiddos doing? My elder child graduated from high school last week!!!
@djslack Well, Howdy back!
@mikibell Hiya!! They are well. My daughter just picked out her high school classes for next year!!!
Congrats to your graduate!!! We are getting old.
Hope you are doing well!!!
I think
I just signed up for VMP last month, how’s it going guys
Actually was sometime in 2016… And really since the site started, but I’d cancel whenever I wasn’t using it for a while, back when you could.
Almost lost it because my credit card company changed my billing address without asking and meh’s emails saying as much got sent to spam. Now it’s not as cool because it says 2021. But I’m not bitter or anything, idiots at Chase.
Curious, anyone else get a shipping notification for something from Mercatalyst (not any of the specific sites)? As far as I can tell, something is coming that isn’t related to an order (though it may be related to a recent mehrathon purchase).
@lehigh no?
@lehigh yep, just received the khaki colored irk bag that was missing from my irk
@jaybird me too! Thanks to @kidsandliz for the tip
I was a VMP back in the day and am now just a mehmber
I am a person. Maybe mediocre even
Present. VMP since Dec. 2014.
I’ve paid my dues
Time after time
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I’ve made a few
I’ve had my share of sand
Kicked in my face
But I’ve come through
…or something like that, but more mehdiocre.
Still kicking
Missed the Kickstarter. But I’ve been a VMP since fairly shortly after.
facepalm.

Still here, 2015. I had a 4+ year button streak until a few months ago when I guess I forgot ONE TIME
I think I am. Lets see. I’m paying $5 a month? I didn’t know that. You guys owe me.
Ping!
I scrolled all the way down for this?
Member, but not VMP. Since 2019
July 2014…VMP…probably for as long as it’ll be around. Or until i stop buying stuff.
@iamdmann credit card number stolen and lapsed for a week but support were kind enough to restore me, but now it says 2019. When did vmp become available for non kickstarters?
Also long time VMP here.
August 2016 here. Almost 5 years.
Vee - Em - Pee
Present! Here since 2016
August 2016 here!
Still going!
VMP gang unite!
So who is going to add up how much money Meh is making just from the VMP’s who insist on continuing to let them take $60 a year from each of us? We are the reason they can list garbage and still stay viable. Genius!
VMP since December, 2014. Shit, that means I’ve paid $395 for this.
Oh well, cheers to the next 7 years of mediocrity!
I’m still VMP…
@mike808 Do we have an updated VMP total?
@Ignorant
Surely a moderator, in the context of their elevated relationship with the managment of this fine establishment, could make an inquiry for a teensy tiny data point of summary non-personally identifiable information?
Or, since I am all out of crayons:
@mike808 you’d think, but no.
August 2014 here…
Yeppp
Here!
(Edit: oh, but that other badge shows)
Since the start. Mostly I keep it for casemates free shipping at this point.
Been VMP since the kickstarter, date had to reset due to payment issue.

Sorry im late

Buying stupid stuff since July 2014 and loving it
Still here. Still VMP.
Still here, since November 2015.
I can never seem to snag an IRK, though.

Still MEH crazy after all these years.
Howdy!
Welp, here I am.
Still a VMP - not sure why.
kickstarter vmp here
Every month I wonder if it’s worth it, and every month I let them take my money again!
VMP here! Not sure why …
Meh
eYup, VMP here too. Got in on the formation of Casemates, which on the whole has been worth it for moi. Mind you I’m not whining, I’m wining.
On the other had, I’m too dumb to quit paying to have the flogging stop.
I’m a proud member of the The Meh Mushroom Club TMMC, where we’re kept in the dark and offered a daily ration of shit, for which we have to pay. But hey, the shipping is free. Whadda deal?
@Jackinga Wow Casemates, I forgot about that site. I signed up and paid my fee. I never heard from them again. Guess I have a lot of money and hangovers.

I’m always late to this party
i lost my vmp during covid because my pay was cut and I turned off every recurring charge until i could rebudget
VMP since 2016
So I was a VMP until my debit card was compromised. It happened the day before my membership was to be taken out, and so my membership didn’t go through, so I lost my status. Meh said tough luck, kid
Hope you stars all feel sorry for me, I was once cool like you, I swear!
%$$%$
Greetings and salutations!
Yo
Just had my 5yr mehniversary in June! The free shipping for all sites keeps me here.
VMP since 2015 until whenever my debit card expires after I die.
Still here and biding my time for a new Meh shirt – the one with the slightly glittery letters would be good (haven’t seen that one for awhile). Or a good cheap bundle of “Meh” without a face.
It shows the K but I swear I’m a V too!

Since May 2016…
Since June 2015.
since August 2014.
@robteaboy = seems to be a Very fine month as it I have been a member since then as well
I was original VMP member but each time I have to update an expired CC, I become a “new” member.
Since Sept 2015…
Since January 2016
Since the beginning.
Well I was just charged my monthly VMP fee, so I guess Im still here
@aaee nope, just charged your monthly Membership fee not VMP. Sorry.
Ugh
So much chit chat, but I am here. Not sure why, haven’t bought anything in about a year.
I was a VMP, then let my sub lapse for a bit, and came back. I have no idea what my icon is now.
Edit - It’s the heart.
@RavenSan Pile on, everybody!!!
Signed up for VMP way back when, occasionally buy something. Inertia has kept me around this long.
Also, I’ve only ever posted images when I’ve lucked out and gotten an IRK.
Present! I haven’t quit yet.
Since Dec. 2014, baby! Do I win?
Still paying my five bucks every month.
/giphy I am a VMP
Still here from day 1.
throwing my money in a hole every month, right on time!
Since July of 2014.
@pooflady How about seeing how many kickstarters are still here.
/giphy Why?
I think I keep paying because I like dumb shirts.
EDIT: AAANNNDDD I just bought an apron I definitely didn’t need. Actually 2…
Yep, I’m here.
I’m breaking my vow of silence for this. I hope it’s worth it.
I don’t know why I keep paying for this, but hello.
Nope. Wait… Yup. Lapsed in 2016, but I keep throwing money away.
I enjoy the free shipping on my junk.
Yo
I remain here for the mostly positive community and occasional boxes of absolute random crap.
Still on a long streak, so I guess I keep VMP
Pretty Sure I’m still in it.

Was crushed to find out meh.com existed after being a woot (but not woot plus) regular, so late to the VMP party. Meh has made $5 a month off me since December 2014.

/giphy hi
STILL HERE.
VMP for 6 years, but bailing to give my $5 to a patreon or something.
VMP, but considering bailing. What does VMP get me over joining the “Membership” in a month where I purchase something? I haven’t been able to score an IRK in I don’t know how long, what with the bots or other scammy ways all 38 of them get sucked up instantaneously. I realize that probably saves me from what has become an even more regrettable purchase as time has progressed. So, back to: What does being a VMP really get me over and above what I could get by being a regular member when I do actually purchase something?
