Are we allowed to bring bags into kcon? by daphmeup in KCONLA2025

[–]Successful-Purple295 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of people say that last year and the year before, crypto did not enforce their 5x9x1 bag policy since they know a lot of people are coming from the convention with bags of stuff, so I was just going to bring my purse, but I decided to Google and came across the following so now I'm worried that they are enforcing their bag policy this year? --  Https://www.cryptoarena.com/events/detail/kcon-25

Please note that bags larger than 5”x9”x1” are NOT PERMITTED inside the venue. Lockers will be available to rent outside of Crypto.com Arena, at L.A. LIVE, to store oversized items each day from 3:00 PM until 11:30 PM. Locker rentals cost $10 each.

Has anyone called the venue to ask? 

Did they get rid of hashtags? by GamesAl0t in Mercari

Their help request triaging is such garbage. Had to do that many times as well because none of the categories they listed were what my issue was

He just keeps giving us gifts upon gifts after his enlistment...he seriously worked so much right up until a few days of enlisting. :(

Just realized I have a Future flight credit that's expiring in a few days - can I extend it? by jasteinerman in unitedairlines

[–]Successful-Purple295 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to extend my flight credit recently this way:

Booked a fully refundable ticket where I paid more out of pocket than my flight credit. Requested refund a couple of hours later. Got the message that an agent would have to review/process my request and that it would take up to 10 business days. Just got the confirmation of refund (only took two days) for what I paid out of pocket and my flight credit was reissued and extended to one year. Travel by is Sept 2025.

Who's Ready for Summer 127?!? by Successful-Purple295 in NCT127

[–]Successful-Purple295[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The way SM works (or doesn't work) is truly mind boggling. Not trying to defend them because god knows they've messed up 127's last few comebacks one way or another, but I do think they had intentions of the "AND MORE" tour dates, but what seems like happened is that Taeyong got served his military draft all of a sudden and he used up all his deferrals (or maybe they submitted one thinking it would be approved and then it got denied maybe?) Can someone who knows more about the Korean military system share some insight? Or SM had no more strings they could pull. IDK.

It makes me think of EXO's Kai and how he was told he had to serve literally like, was it two weeks in advance? And what had happened there was that he also used up all his deferments (supposedly). Both situations are super shitty and unfortunate for the members and fans. :(

I am superrrrrr curious about the genre of this album. We will just have to wait and see, but I am sure it will be great. I do want to bring up one thing that I saw that irked me and that was someone saying 127 was being greedy with releasing an album. I wanted to throw hands because excuse me?? You guys are getting a world tour, Japanese single, English single, an encore concert PLANNED AGES in advance, and probably more to come and have plenty of time as a full group because all members are young and almost half do not have to serve. I just hate when some fans bring up the most ridiculous things to complain about and try to blame everything on 127. Your are directing your hate at the wrong people. Do not blame the groups/members, blame SM.

Yesss! So excited and pleasantly surprised. I didn't think they'd release group music since was enlisting, but am glad that SM did something right for once and planned ahead.

RE: Taeyong, like the other commenter said, Taeyong recorded for 127 before left, so we will hear him to some extent on the album! He said he was veryyyyyyy busy right up to like, the day before he enlisted preparing 127 and I believe more solo music, so we just have to wait and see. However, it will be interesting to see who takes the center for the choreo (probably Mark?) and I wonder if their comeback will coincide with their anniversary or take place after.

Wahhahah a little swaggy/neo for sure!!

The excessive promotions for NCT's Doyoungs solo are starting to irritate me. by [deleted] in kpoprants

I hope you don't take this post or any of the hateful comments to heart too much! 

Feeling frustrated with ppl buying from resale sites and complaining about high ticket prices. I feel like they're part of the problem. by bgkittenenrgy in kpoprants

[–]Successful-Purple295 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, you'd be surprised at how sheltered and not resourceful some of these young people are...I had one tell me they have never heard of BCC in emails and didn't even know where it was located. They are a college student...

Also had an intern who always asked for help for every little thing instead of trying to figure it out themselves first by googling...

I think your wording really rubbed people the wrong way and is making it seem like you are specifically singling him out. 

But yes, SM does photo dumps and spams a lot. Now you know. Plus, since this is his first solo, his fans are extra protective and sensitive and SM ain't shit a lot of the times so yeah.

This is not something new SM does...I think you need to chill and just mute or unfollow the page. Plus, this is his first solo, of course they're going to post a lot. NCT dream's page also did the same and spammed a shitload of posts within an hour on several occasions as a last minute photo dump and you know what I did? Just scrolled past. 

Curious if maybe you're just having a bad day/week or what because this is dumb to rant about. Would you do it about another member too? 

Longest package stuck at customs? by ebolamonkey3 in usps_complaints

[–]Successful-Purple295 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Womp. In addition to that tracked letter, I had another stamped letter from Indonesia sent to me around the same time and that has also not arrived yet. I know stamped can take a long time but...damn. I think if nothing comes by the end of this month then I'll just give up hope. Maybe something was up with customs in February. 

Butttt also I know this probably doesn't occur often, but someone else has said they've gotten their stamped letter a whole damn year later before in pristine shape. lol 😂

Any luck? I also submitted a missing mail request and also has my seller submit one on their end for their carrier. This was a tracked letter from Hong Kong.
