+--- Thread: Paid Whitelisting? (/showthread.php?tid=5366920)

Besides, my VPN's dedicated IP changes from time to time. It would be useless for me or anyone else with the same setup to purchase a white list for one IP when it would just change in time anyway.

I might be intrested on it for sure !
Great idea omni,.

In theory, it's a good idea for some users on restrictive networks, or who want to access at workplaces. But the suggestion of allowing a VPN (if public) would lead to larger chances of Multi-accounters getting away with it, and maybe negative concequences for accounts associated with that IP address? - or is this something likely to have alternate changes implemented?
Just my opinion on this topic.

This is quite the neat feature but should only be done if you can do the whitelisting with ease. Something like integrating it into your ACP and such where you wouldn't have to spend 5-10 minutes logging in each time to add it in. If it takes a lot of your time, don't bother to be honest. You'd be better off putting the time into other features that would be a lot more beneficial to the community.

This would be interesting feature :) Yes.

I'm assuming Something like this would be managed somewhat like the UB3R application system - which gives Omni the power to vet all of the IPs before someone can pay to get the whitelist processed automatically.

I wouldn't have no use for this, but in text it seems like a good concept that could be added.

Hell yeah, I'd love some of that whitelisting magic!

So who would actually benefit from this? Just curious.

Members that have difficulty in connecting to HF.

I think that feature would be easily abused, also I personally woudn't use it because I have dynamic IP but I could see potential.
* - Viral Dragon - Aug 8, 2016
Nah. I don't need it. I don't spam or what not, and I don't plan on using a VPN.
-Viral.

Same, I wouldn't be interested. Unless NY becomes blacklisted lol.

I think I would be interested in this service!
* - Mons - Aug 8, 2016
I think this would be a very welcome feature.
Would we be able to have more IPs whitelisted?
For instance if the IP of my VPN changes...
