Dear members!
1) Certainly many of you have seen already, that the new subscription periods (6 and 12 months) are as well online, as the new IMA prices for the club subscriptions. As soon as we have checked the operational capability completely – particularly with regard to credit card payments – we will give the formal go-ahead for your renewals or subscriptions.
2) We are very pleased, that our efforts to reactivate "Explore" were a complete success. Furthermore we are doing well with deleting the accumulated spam . But since the actual sign up for Ipernity doesn’t need any authentication concerning the registration of new accounts yet, this website will fall victim to spammers or robots again and again. Therefore we ask you to remain attentive and report inappropriate content . We suggest you to report it using the "Report as inappropriate" link, which is situated at the bottom right of a photo or article.
3) Last but not least we are pleased with all offers to help us on the website. Thanks a lot! As soon as we are familiar enough ourselves we will move to the next needs and help
Have a nice weekend!
On behalf of IMA,

Chers membres !
1) Beaucoup d'entre vous ont déjà constaté que les nouvelles périodes d'abonnement (6 et 12 mois) sont déjà en ligne, ainsi que les nouveaux tarifs IMA pour les abonnements au Club. Dès que nous aurons terminé de régler la procédure de leur encaissement, en particulier pour ce qui concerne les paiements par carte de crédit, nous vous donnerons le délai officiel pour vos renouvellements ou vos abonnements.
2) Nous sommes très heureux, que nos efforts pour réactiver "Explore" aient été couronnés de succès. En outre, nous avons supprimé tout le Spam accumulé depuis longtemps. Mais tant que la version actuelle d'Ipernity ne gère pas l'authentification lors de l'enregistrement de nouveaux comptes, ce site Web sera victime de spammeurs ou de robots. Par conséquent, nous vous demandons d'être plus attentifs. Si vous remarquez un contenu inapproprié, nous vous demandons de nous le signaler en utilisant le lien "Signaler comme indésirable" qui se trouve en bas à droite de chaque photo ou article.
3) Last but not least, nous sommes très reconnaissant à ceux qui nous ont proposé leur aide pour la modération du site. Merci beaucoup ! Dès que nous seront devenus suffisamment familiers avec les différents outils de modération, nous prendrons en compte ces propositions.
Bon week-end à vous !
Au nom de l'IMA,

Liebe Mitglieder!
1) Wie einige von euch inzwischen bemerkt haben, sind die neuen Zeiträume (6 und 12 Monate), sowie die neuen IMA-Preise für die Club-Abonnements bereits online. Sobald wir die volle Funktionsfähigkeit – vor allem auch im Hinblick auf Kreditkartenzahlungen – getestet haben, werden wir das offizielle Startsignal für die Abo-Verlängerungen geben.
2) Zu unserer großen Freude konnten wir die EXPLORE-Funktion inzwischen vollständig reaktivieren. Des Weiteren haben wir die Webseite inzwischen auch weitgehend von altem Spam befreit. Da das aktuelle Release von Ipernity bei Account-Neuanmeldungen jedoch keinerlei Authentizitätsprüfung durchführt, wird die Webseite in dieser Version immer wieder von Spammern und Robots heimgesucht werden. Wir bitten euch deshalb weiterhin um eure Aufmerksamkeit und Mitarbeit. Solltet ihr auf Inhalte stoßen, die ihr bedenklich findet, meldet dies bitte über den Link "Als unangebracht markieren" am unteren rechten Rand des jeweiligen Fotos oder Beitrags.
3) Last but not least freuen wir uns über diverse Hilfsangebote, die uns im Hinblick auf die Moderation der Website gemacht wurden. Dafür zunächst einmal unseren herzlichsten Dank! Sobald wir uns mit den Moderationstools ausreichend vertraut gemacht haben, werden wir diese Angebote fallweise gern in Anspruch nehmen.
Wir wünschen euch ein schönes Wochenende!

Thank you!
Danke auch hier wieder...es geht Stück für Stück und deswegen sollten alle auch ein wenig Geduld und vor allem Verständnis aufbringen....wie verzweifelt waren wir noch vor 9 Monaten? ;)
(meine Verlängerung des Abo-clubs mit Kreditkarte funktionierte ausgezeichnet :-)
Bergfex club has replied to (*NIKonGT*)Bergfex club has replied to franco benf clubM♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to Bergfex clubAlso is it all done & dusted now & IMA have control of this site .......I'm reading between the lines here ............??
I have just looked at renewing my subscription, but it's not telling me much as to whom the money goes to !!!
Pam J club has replied to M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… clubSee Bernhard's reply above (and I have put underneath
"......You can use it at your own risk. Paypal works well in most cases, creditcards still make problems in several cases. But the prices and periods are ok now !...."
Please also re-read point 1) in the news post
Yes the IMA has control of almost all.. still some technicalities to be sorted out

M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to Treasa Ui CionaodhaPam J club has replied to M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… clubAs to a further announcement... again.. see post above 1)
As soon as we have checked the operational capability completely – particularly with regard to credit card payments – we will give the formal go-ahead for your renewals or subscriptions...
M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to Pam J clubautofantasia club has replied to M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… clubRepeatedly telling people who bring it up that the problem lies with the individual and not the IMA isn't, in my opinion at least, very helpful. Nor does it do much to keep people on side at a time when we all need to be pulling together.
I hear (again) what the IMA are saying about the difficulties of mass email campaigns, but is it really that much of an issue? Personally, I always thought it might have been a made up excuse by Team Ipernity to keep discussions and awareness of their difficulties to a minimum.
I subscribe to many online forums and magazine websites etc., nearly all of which issue regular updates and/or newsletters (sometimes monthly, sometimes weekly) to users. Even ipernity does that: on the 1st of each month I, and presumably every other user of the site that hasn't opted out of such mailing, gets a news report sent through to them and the world doesn't seem to stop turning.
So, proof that it can be done, ipernity itself even does it, so why are we still having this debate? If a specific single one-off message is to difficult to produce and issue then why not look at modifying the news reports?
These obviously work to a template whereby specific code customises the content to capture activity relevant to each individual user. However, there are obviously other bits of text/data that are standardised across each and every report that goes out so why not just 'tweak' that so that you can insert some sort of IMA statement?
Sorry, I appreciate you guys are struggling with the technical side of things, but just because you're not quite sure how to do something doesn't mean it can't be done. And in the interests of transparency, clarity and good old-fashioned 'customer service' I'd say it's time you guys looked again at this.
Treasa Ui Cionaodha has replied to M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… clubTreasa Ui Cionaodha has replied to M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… clubBergfex club has replied to autofantasia club1) arbeiten wir in der IMA als Team rund um den Globus und stimmen uns per Mail untereinander ab. Außer uns sechs ehrenamtlichen Leutchen gibt es niemanden. Kein Büro, keine Mitarbeiter. Wir können also nicht einfach jemanden intern damit beauftragen, sich um irgendwelche Angelegenheiten zu kümmern und umgehende Erledigung einfordern, wie man es in einem kommerziellen Betrieb machen würde, sondern müssen immer zusehen, wer gerade (neben seinem Job, seiner Familie und seinem Alltag) Ressourcen frei hat.
2) Arbeiten wir intern selbstverständlich eine Prioritätenliste ab und haben für die einzelnen topics auch Zuständigkeiten. Aber weil wir auch noch ein Leben außerhalb der IMA haben (s.o.) können wir nicht jeden Tag viele Stunden darauf verwenden. Es können auch mal Tage vergehen, an denen wir uns nicht um die Angelegenheiten kümmern können, selbst wenn sie dringend sind.
3) Benötigt IMA für alle Angelegenheiten, die über das Moderationstool hinausgehen, also den Quellcode betreffen, die Hilfe von Christophe Ruelle. Die hat er zwar versprochen, aber er ist manchmal auch 10 Tage lang nicht zu erreichen. In der Hinsicht sind wir (bis auf Weiteres) noch ausgeliefert.
4) Zur Sache selbst: Die Zahlungsströme sind bereits sämtlich umgeleitet. Alle erfolgreich abgewickelten Zahlungen landen auch bei IMA. Aus unerfindlichen technischen Gründen gibt es jedoch unverändert bei einigen Kreditkartentypen Zurückweisungen durch die zentrale Kreditkartenorganisation SKRILL. Wir sind gerade dabei, für diese Kreditkartentypen neue Accounts einzurichten. Aber auch das muss codiert werden. Denn leider wurden die Accounts nicht einfach in einer Tabelle hinterlegt, die einfach modifiziert werden könnte, sondern sind in den Quellcode eingebunden. Dazu braucht es also wieder die Hilfe von Christophe . . ., und das dauert wieder.
Summa summarum: Es hilft gar nichts, zu quengeln oder Druck zu machen. Wir arbeiten an dem Thema, so schnell wir können, aber kommen um die genannten Nadelöhre leider nicht drum herum.
M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to autofantasia clubI have Messaged all my contacts with a short note that IP is open for business, but it would be better if I had an official letter to send from someone in the IMA.....Also I have noticed that a lot of people are still without subscription for whatever reason ...... that is money waiting to keep us alive ....... It has been said that people should look to this group for updates, people should do a lot of things but they don't & as they say ...you can lead a horse to water !!!
Treasa Ui Cionaodha has replied to autofantasia clubTreasa Ui Cionaodha has replied to M♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… clubM♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to Treasa Ui CionaodhaPam J club has replied to Rrrolf clubPam J club has replied to Esther clubPayPal... some credit cards are being declined (for no good reason).... it happened to me and one or two others. But not to others...
And that is why... as we have said .... (see post)
"........As soon as we have checked the operational capability completely – particularly with regard to credit card payments – we will give the formal go-ahead for your renewals or subscriptions..."
William Sutherland club has replied to Pam J clubI recommend people hold off renewing if it will be done with a credit card. Paypal has no issues.
IMA now controls the website. This can clearly be seen by the renewals made by Rrrolf and Happy Snapper. The money goes to IMA not IPSA since IMA is paying all operational costs to keep the site running.
Rrrolf club has replied to William Sutherland clubNo risk, no problems for me, paid with PayPal to “Association des membres ipernity“ (not to IP/SA!).
Marta Wojtkowska club has replied to William Sutherland clubI remember some Ipernity Club members starting to be very annoyed with the problem a couple (or more) years ago. The Ipernity team then could not deal with the problem, sent evasive messages, and eventually stopped responding to any request from the interested parties. Some people left IP because of it.
Marta Wojtkowska club has replied to Rrrolf clubHappySnapper has replied to Rrrolf clubCeropegia club has replied to William Sutherland clubraingirl club has replied to Ceropegia clubWilliam Sutherland club has replied to Ceropegia clubWARNING: when Ipernity messages acknowledgement of payment and months purchased, in my case 12 months the date shows 10/3/2018. Do not forget this is continental / US format and in the UK it will be 3/10/2018. PAM I was just about ready to fire off a broadside until the penny dropped !!! Lol.
Pam J club has replied to HappySnapperIt was just 4 that it faulted and there was no reason why it should have. It was always going to the IMA side but why it declined the cards we still do not know.
Glad all went well !!
Re the date format.... I have been here 11 years.. and it still throws me every time. I have had to get in the habit of actually saying or writing the date/month to stop the confusion. I totally sympathise !
raingirl club has replied to Krisonteme clubPam J club has replied to dgmphoto clubIncidently.. to send out a huge mass emails causes just about ALL email providers to block Ipernity's emails. It happened before when it was tried. Some may remember an email blockade for 3 days or more.
We are not seeing people having problems knowing what is going on... all they need to do is spend 10 mins reading the Blog (now we have access to that) and this group. Asking that of people isnt much to ask.
Treasa Ui Cionaodha has replied to Pam J clubIP got around this situation by sending the same emails in smaller batches. Which caused no problems and resulting in Everyone eventually getting the intended mail. Maybe Christophe could help you with how to solve the above problem.
I think Marj and Djmphoto's have a good point To ensure all members are informed about what is happening in IMA (We have to face and accept the fact that it appears most members don't read blogs) communication between Members and IMA could be maximized by being contacted by emails from the IMA..
If members don't know what's going on because of lack of communication from the IMA the IMA could loose alot of members just because they (the members) were not informed on ongoing progress and information from the IMA. . Especially regarding the new subscription rates and the cut off point for paying subs.
Just my humble opinion.
Treasa Ui Cionaodha has replied to dgmphoto clubM♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to Treasa Ui CionaodhaM♥rJ Photogr♥phy !!… club has replied to Treasa Ui CionaodhaMany thanks to Eric & William and all who represent the "inner circle" of the very engaged and active "IMA-rescue"-group.
Let's hope the very best ... and btw I share the concerns of dgmphoto
Pam J club has replied to Be◉bachter club"These are 'mass communications" if folk cannot make an effort to read one group... ! People do know and ask and read ... and also speak to others."
Incidently.. to send out a huge mass emails causes just about ALL email providers to block Ipernity's emails. It happened before when it was tried. Some may remember an email blockade for 3 days or more.

My fault.
Pam J club has replied to Be◉bachter clubNo worries... ! It was just info.. Glad you are back and hope you can spread the word ! That all helps a lot too .
Thankyou !
ps: I have a list with 'members' who should be moderated, because they are most probably
commercial/advertising on Ipernity. How and where to send that list ???
Bergfex club has replied to Jaap van 't Veen clubI'll extinguish those accounts asap.
Pam J club has replied to Jaap van 't Veen clubI am doing Moderation twice a day for some hours. They would have probably vanished as I did them
If you re-read point 2 above... it tells you this

Thankyou for finding them.. and if you report them.. I will deal with them
Heidiho club has replied to ╰☆☆June☆☆╮ clubI will try it !
"Já é membro do Club ipernity e estamos lhe muito agradecidos.
A sua assinatura expira em 5 de Abril 2018. Deseja prolongá-la desde já?"
That seems a message from IP/sa. In the renewal page it is like it was previously, same red clubseat, so... I would like to know where do I find the right place to pay IMA.
There is no urgency as I leave tomorrow to the Feroe Islands and will be back end of the month in time to renew before IMA's deadline, anyhow I will have internet so I keep in touch.
Thanks for making this clear, I think I am not the only one...
Pam J club has replied to Xata clubTo renew is exactly the same way as it always has been.
Nothing has changed on that.
Go to your Account Settings.. and then at the top is a link to Extend or (probably ) Upgrade or something like that.
Click it.. then by the red chair a big link !
Click it and it will take you to this page (you stopped at this point I think)
www.ipernity.com/club/subscribe
You will see 6 and 12 mths.
This is the exact same way as you have done before.
That will take you to the payments !
Xata club has replied to Pam J clubHuge thanks to the IMA team for all their hard work!
From this point I can not go on, and blocked, I will wait
raingirl club has replied to franco benf clubPam J? Eric? Thoughts?
For those who are not using Paypal. Are the other cards such as Visa or Mastercard "and others." all using Skrill . So is Skrill linked to pay IMA or IP/Sa Does anyone Know ???????
As soon as we have checked the operational capability completely - especially with regard to credit card payments - we will give the formal go-ahead for your renewals or subscriptions.
This suggests to me that regarding Credit card payments it is not clear where the payment may go.
Pam J club has replied to Treasa Ui CionaodhaEverything is linked to the IMA.... linkage is not the problem and never was.
It was/is that a tiny few number of cards (no particular "type" ) were not being accepted . There has been no apparent reason why and 99% of people were fine . Eric is still I believe having it checked out.
Just did mine.... but, as a safeguard .. SKRILL which is what I go through (like last year) was put on hold by my MasterCard and I got an immediate text from MC ...
After telling them the info needed, I went back and everything went smoothly.
It was interesting - the Customer Service Rep asked "who is SKRILL?" Told him it was sort of like PayPal ... "Oh .."
Good luck to all in getting IMA the monies needed !
Pam J club has replied to Peggy C clubPeggy C club has replied to Esther clubi am confused . do i go directly to paypal and pay (who?) or do it via dashboard.?
thanks
Pam J club has replied to neki desuAsking for some answers for you... !
The answer will not be instant .. hang in there please !
William Sutherland club has replied to neki desuMy suggestion is to hold off renewing as long as your membership remains valid and no announcement has been made confirming the need to renew under IMA. The technical issues are complex. Thus only renew when the need arises through an IMA announcement or your membership expires.
Neki may have assumed that the rules had already been applied and was expecting a 2018 end of membership term. I am thinking if a top up payment has been made is it possible to cancel the balance of a previous payment (Previous to 2nd May 2017) and retain the current balance !!.
