That's pretty much how the premium membership panned out.

...and today my countdown is gone!

That's just wrong. Wasn't your limit increased because you mentioned the various games that you run?

I guess my hat wearing days are gone too. PM limit is 150. Is that the new normal or the increased version?

/\ New normal, apparently. I have never had Premium, and my limit is also 150.

Members, please see this post in the Premium forum:

If you have recently lost your hat and *still do not see it right now*, please PM me.

Thank you,

Paul

I thought The PM limit for Premium members was 400 and I now have that back Along with my hat.

Yesterday I had 159 total in my in and out boxes and deleted some to get below 150. I still have a lot of messages from last fall's Survivor, Amazing Race and sheep games.

I can get by for now, but I will be deleting a lot of my old messages when the new survivor and TAR games start.

I seem to have lost my premium member status. I thought I had read a post stating all memberships were extended but I cant find that post now. What do I need to get added again?

See the post made by IBobi 2 posts above yours. You should send him a PM.

I thought that the countdown was a premium feature, but I couldn't remember. Mine is still showing up and I can't remove it because I didn't renew the premium membership. It would be nice to have it gone from my profile/signature.

Done.

Thanks!

Can I have my countdown removed or able to use again also

Looks to be done.
