Posting MOP's should be no biggee....a price is a price....though being able to post NMP's would be nice too.

No reason was given and yeah we thought it was rather strict. I totally agree there should be a way to mark a Members Only station in the MSL so it shows on every post. I did suggest this to the moderators awhile ago and they did like the idea. It could be coming with the other MSL changes they are working on.

"to date GB has shot down every idea we have come up with..."
I can't understand why. Did they give a reason ?
"We did that GGG and the moderator CC removed it and took away our MSL rights for a period of time."
Wow, unnecessarily strict, considering your length of membership.
"it still wouldn't provide a way for a user to view all stations not having such a tag"
The only way to do that will be some programming changes.
I don't see why a membership-only station can't be labeled as such in the MSL. It's as misleading not to as it is to post the gas price "with a car wash" instead of the gas-only price.

Even if that were permissible, it still wouldn't provide a way for a user to view all stations not having such a tag.

How about adding "-members only" to the end of the station name in the MSL ?
Then for example, a Costco would show up as "Costco-members only" in the search results.

We have been trying to get GB to have "Members Only" show up for these posts regardless who posts them or how they are posted and to date GB has shot down every idea we have come up with. Good luck with your idea WR.
