    I don't think you've ever been able to see the rep button on your own posts, because you can't give yourself rep. I think. If I'm understanding what you asked correctly. :)

    D'oh. Left my puter sitting and didn't refresh and read before replying so I missed Nestle's post saying the same thing

    I do believe Bean got her answer so said someone could lock the thread Olivia.

    moddies can just zap this pointless post now if they feel the need. But i actually still want to know why the price went up. Bean

    Typically it ties in with oil prices so when there is conflict in the middle east, and at the sametime domestic natural gas prices declining do to over drilling, you'll see a bump in the MDS price. Even though the housing market is making gains I'm pretty sure the fact that unemployment is still too high has Mike hedging his bet. You might see a drop in price after Labor Day.

    This is so stupid. Pay the 3 damn dollars or shut up.

    If you had any sense you would have went preemie a long tune ago when it was cheaper and lifetime.

    Gah, so retarded.

    Let me add some detail:

    MDS Membership prices have soared nearly 8% in the last week alone, touching $15 a membership in overnight trading -- their highest level in over two years.

    The fear is that Western intervention in Syria over that country's suspected use of chemical weapons could engulf MDS in articles coming from the region.

    But membership has been gaining for weeks as a labor strike in Libya, widespread theft in Nigeria and ongoing problems in Iraq have driven new members to MDS.

    Gasoline prices, however, have been holding around $3.50 a gallon which has the greatest impact on the six month price point.

    While they may tick higher in response to rising oil -- AAA's national average price rose 1.8 cents Thursday to $3.56 -- gas prices are on a longer-term, cyclical path down. The end of summer vacations means fewer MDS'ers will be on the forum, cutting demand. And as cooler temperatures mean less pollution risk, Mike and the MODS can switch to "winter blends" of articles, which are cheaper to produce.
    "If this were April, we'd be going ballistic," said J, chief MDS analyst and field expert. "But there are a lot of things beyond the Middle East that should act to keep membership prices temperate."

    Bean is correct about the sheriff's badge, though. We used to have one on our posts and when we hovered over it, you could see if you'd gotten reps on that post. They are gone now.

    ETA We can report ourselves though.

    As for the price going up, I'm sure it has to do with what it costs to maintain the site. More server space needs to be purchased so the site runs smoother, there's yearly domain fees, etc.

    Running a site like this doesn't come cheap.

    Meh, i see nothing wrong with the thread. It's a legit question. I can't understand why everytime i make a thread someone has a problem with it. As i said before, i hardly ever make threads. So with that being said olivia, do you know why the price went up? Thank you in advance.
