I doubt that 2 people would make them bring it back, though.

well, that's great, then. i was afraid i was going to be the only sod left without their stuff. i think we'll be better off just sending them emails, making sure they
know they're losing business over something this stupid. and they are losing it over nothing.

I'd also like them to make it so that you can actually search on the site. If you search something that has a keyword that results in more than one page of results, if you go to the next page it just takes you all the way back to "page 2" of ALL the videos. Also this is minor, but they could fix some spelling errors. "Guilhotine"? Not a big deal, BUT I feel like they need better servers. After 100 videos their site is starting to go way slower. At least it seems that way.

yeah, there are some bugs. haven't felt it
that problematic because i check it out daily and watch every video hours after it's been uploaded, so i rarely search. but i can see how that can be annoying.

Their content is 100% what keeps me on there. It's like the best pizza place in town that has 90 minute delivery speeds, but you get it because it's so good. The HD too is beautiful and the audio is great. Navigating MGinaction is 200% easier.

exactly!! everything about the actual content is splendid. the quality of both audio and video is great and rafa's instruction is
brilliant. almost every single video i've watched has given me at least one "a-ha!" moment. i know people say you can't compensate actual mat time, but i'm telling you. some of the details i've seen him show have really helped me out in the last month, especially with passing.

EDIT: Not trying to seem overly critical. But MGinaction set the bar very high and in this economy, if you're asking people to pay that kind of money and you have a corporation like RVCA helping run things, I would think some of these problems should be non-issues. I work for a web design company and lots of this stuff is actually very simple.

what drives me
mad about this situation is that i know how these things are setup. i'm a webdeveloper, i've done my fair share of paypal integrations into websites. you need a form and a landing page. the landing page is where paypal lets your servers know someone paid for their shit so you can extend their subscription.
for them to say "we don't accept paypal anymore because now we have credit cards" means that someone developed a new landing page for the call-backs of whatever service is handling their credit card payments and
removed their paypal landing page. and this is all invisible to customers, this is just code running on the server, somewhere in the back. instead of
extending it to include credit cards as well, someone actually took enough time to
disable paypal. the blame either lies on the developer (which i doubt), or whoever is managing them and is clueless about how internet trade works. i'm actually thinking of offering my help to develop a system that can handle both, free of charge. i'll even keep paying for the damn content, as long as they let me do it, the bastards.
it is kind of like a clerk at a convenience store telling you they don't handle cash anymore because before, some people wanted to pay with credit cards. so now it's credit card only. you're literally begging the man to take your money for their great stuff and they refuse to, for no conceivable reason. it pisses me off.
