Wow! I got a DU Mail saying my Star Membership had expired.

[MineralMan]

I didn't feel like sending a donation right that moment, and I used DU for a day without a star. Then, I got out my Kindle Fire and logged in. What a mess! The mobile version of DU I was forced to use was, well, unusable. The Fire has an HD display, and the regular desktop version looks just fine on it.

So, this morning, I re-upped on PayPal.

For those people who have not used it as a Star member, I really, really recommend getting that Star. DU's much better that way. Really!

1. Funny. I also use the desktop version everywhere.

Glad we have the choice

[MineralMan]

3. I didn't know there wasn't a choice for some.

I found the mobile version to be useless. I didn't even bother checking My Posts.

Sign up, folks. Make a donation of any size, and actually make DU usable.

7. Funny you should ask, u-pants;

I have a knot in a back muscle, and a back rub is JUST what I need!

Not for nothing, but the Jury Hot Tub is full of piss...

14. Good times, good times

6. I use the mobile version.

My phone is the only device I have.

It works ok. Hard to type though.

I have a Star Membership so that may make a difference.

8. I access DU all the time on my Kindle Fire. No issues

[ProudMNDemocrat]

9. My Star membership comes out of my PayPal account each month....

I believe making a monthly donation is worth it.

This is a great place to be.

10. Worst thing in the world

The ads, the ads - disgusting

[MineralMan]

12. Ah, back on my Kindle Fire.

Looks great again!

[SCantiGOP]

13. Ditto

Let's keep this bastion of reason and pissed-off activism going. Throw them a few bucks at least once a year.

[Wounded Bear]

15. Thanks for the reminder...

just checked my status.

[Blue_true]

16. I make a block payment and DU is good about crediting each month.

My guess is that mine should expire soon and I will re-up.

17. While we are on the subject of Star Memberships.

How do I change the amount I donate? My Star Membership never seems to expire so I can change it.

[MineralMan]

18. I don't have the answer to that question.

I donate once a year in whatever amount I can afford at the time. The complication for me is remembering my PayPal password, since that's the only time I use the account these days. I used to accept PayPal payment for eBay items, etc., but I stopped selling stuff.

20. You should be able to change it

by going to "My Account" and then selecting the "Star Membership" tab, and then the "Renew Now" link, which should bring up the 4 options for renewing including the "Recurring" payments (monthly or yearly) or "One-time" or "Check". I believe that may reset your term depending on which one you choose.

[Delmette2.0]

21. Thanks, I'll try that.

[BumRushDaShow]

22. Hope it works okay!!

19. I have not reupped my star. I have no problems with the site on my phone or iPad.
