I upgraded your account. Can you send me a PM with your real name so I can check up on things?

Thanks for your donation! Sorry for the delay!

So what's the real process? I upgraded this evening, and since I had paypal funds in the account just went with that. I got a reciept email from paypal, but there was nothing from BF even asking me to confirm my user ID? Is there something I'm missing?

Send me a PM with the confirmation from paypal. I've got to get offline in the next few min, but once I've confirmed things, I'll upgrade within the next 24 hours.

Paypal should kick you back to a "thank you" page on the forums, once you hit that page, your red star should appear. 99.5% of the time it works fine... your one of the lucky ones i guess. I have upgraded your acct manualy.

Me too. What is the expected latency between PayPal and a red star?

Usualy none.

Did you pay by check, credit card or have funds in your PayPal acct?

Looks like the upgrade worked, not sure why the delay. I'll check the code ASAP.

I have never sold a boat in my life, but I would love to buy one some day. :)

Got it.

Boat selling is sorta idyllic, but can be darn thin in the $$ dept. Thx.

I paid yesterday and was not re-directed to the thank you screen. I PM'ed Joe with no response. Anybody out there? :-)

did you get a PayPal email saying you paid? It took me a day or two for my red star. I feel very commie now.

Can you send me a copy of the confirmation from paypal? Once you do that, I'll forward it on to Joe and we'll upgrade your account for you.

I sent that confirmation to Joe two days ago :) I'll send it to you again if you'd like.
