netty Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 for the information of our friend asking about the audios.. the record company used to pay for those to be hosted but that was removed for some reason. I dont think Staff has access to the original recordings so cant put them back on line for people. the matter has been discussed and if it were possible they would be back on line. I think this was possibly one of the issue he was due to discuss at their last meeting but I dont have any info about what was or wasnt discussed. and as for the band charging membership fees, they`ve had a fan club for a while now where people had to pay. its just gained more promenance since international fans have been able to join. and yes, the band are part of the whole decision making process for the club. as for non-members being considered not to be "real fans" thats the biggest load of tosh going! it doesnt matter when you got into the band, how many gigs you have seen, how much crappy merch you own or whether or not your are a member of the fan club... a fan is a fan. the only people who have problems with this kind of thing is those who consider themselves to be better fans than others. rather than accepting the differences between fans.

Michelle7107 Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 they need to be able to read the questions before they start filming. they might not look so daft then. Haha but it's funnier that way. Them not knowing what the questions are. I mean if they practiced before hand the answer would probably be boring. Billie needs to learn how to read or something 'cause he messed up a lot. Hah gotta love em. The chat is really stupid. I've only been on it like twice and both times there were 4 members or less.And the first time I went on someone sent me their picture and asked me to "go out with them over the internet" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalkingContradiction118 Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 I wanted to join the Idiot Club but after a while I decided not to because I didn't think it was that great. Glad I didn't - doesn't sound so special.And most forums I've checked out are overrun by teenies, so I basically just stay here. Well, this and addictinggames.com.

Michelle7107 Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 No matter how stupid I say it is, I still reccomend it. The Q&A's and videos alone are worth 20 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziplin Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Why the Idiot Club isnt worth twenty dollars:-At most, they answer the Q&A about every other month. Sometimes every 3 months.-The forums suck-Hardly any updates in the "Exclusive" area. There hasn't been a video update there in months.-The store has like 2 things in it and nothing new is ever added-Its just plain boring cause theres never updates or anything unless their on tour or something. But right now their on break so its lame around the idiot club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spark in the night Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 ^ I concurim trying to give the forum a chanceI only have 15 posts so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netty Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 I think you might find things improving on the idiot club in the future. (crosses fingers) and as for the forums, like I`ve said before, if you want them to improve, you have to help the process along by being part of it. start discussions or whatever you think it needs.

iTS BRiT SO STFU Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Finally.I hate the Idoit Club.I wasted $20 dollars for absolutely nothing.They don't have anything different then they do here.Most of the kids are like 13, you're so right everyone.Everyone is complaining how the site sucks.Some of the stuff is okay.But the questions that are asked not worth it. We need more practical questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need more practical questions.I quite like the idiot club. some of the members suck though. I get what I can from the idiot club so its not money wasted.yes they do have different things, they have exclusives that members rip and share else where. bastards!not all of them are 13 year old kids, probably about the same proportion as on any other forum, including this one. not everybody is complaining. some are but not all. some are quite happy thank you very much!yes, some of it is okay, some of it is pretty damn good! the questions answered are the ones asked. just because you dont need to know the answers, obviously some fans do otherwise they wouldnt be asked. if you want more practical questions answered..... ask them for fluffs sake then!

Chrismond Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I'm considering joining the Idiot Club but i dunno what 2 do with the mixed reviews. I will probably join once the relase of a new album is confirmed or heavily rumoured. Quick q tho...will Idiot Club members be able 2 pre-book concert tickets before any1 else (a lot of bands e,g the foo's have a presale and its for everybody, but RHCP allow paying members 2 get ticks in a pre-sale). So i was wondering if Idiot Club members will be able 2 get ticks in pre-sale coz it will be hard 2 get tickets just like last time when they toured since it will sell-out real fast due to their popularity!Thanks!
