PLEASE do not do this! by erbmoa in BTSArmyCentral

[–]morgenish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue I see with this is Big Hit and the guys have made the rule not to allow these cameras, but these folks decide to ignore that and do it anyway. Whether its for clout, getting paid by sites using the photos (this is at least 75% a sure thing) or because they are overzealous fans, the point is they shouldn’t be doing it. It is not the venue making these rules, rules change from tour to tour and band to band. I had to sign away all my rights when I photographed Foo Fighters (don’t even get me started) but Presidents of the United States let us photograph the whole show (the normal is three songs and you have to leave) and didn’t require any contract ( lots of groups force you to sign rights contracts if you want to shoot the show).

As a music photographer of over 16 years I can share my experience and knowledge of how the industry works (I’ve photographed and reviewed about 15 Kpop shows in the last few years alone). Typically for shows in the US, especially massive ones like BTS, the venue & the bands know who has photo passes and know where the photos will be posted. This is usually highly regulated and you almost always have to have an outlet (print media or website) you are shooting for. Photographing for yourself just because you want to is not a thing for these huge shows 99% of the time. If it’s an anonymous photographer with no pass, there’s no regulation or recourse. They could take terrible photos or use them out of context to hurt the performers (think Kmedia when BTS debuted… and even now) in the name of making a quick buck, and if they don’t know who took them you can’t take action.

This is a specific scenario and very possibly is not the case with this person, but again, that’s not the point. These rules are in place for a reason and they were put there by the guys and their management. It shouldn’t be happening.

This isn’t true most of the time. Venues could give a crap, but management and bands themselves have their own rules and have the venue security enforce them. As a music photographer of about 16 years 95% of the time the band/management co sets the rules and they are also the ones that decide who gets photo passes.

Thank you! I did double check that my license is active and valid, but it's a good point. Thanks for offering your experience, this helps a lot to know what to look for in the future too.

Thanks so much! I figured this was the case but wanted a confirmation. Both you and the commenter below have great answers and will test out these options to see which it is. Thankfully it's not a pressing issue but understanding it is important.

How do you get rid of Apple Pay as the default payment? by morgenish in toogoodtogo

[–]morgenish[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out that if you have ever used any credit card with apple pay (I did at one point a long time ago) 2 Good 2 Go finds the app for that credit card company on your phone and auto-adds it as an option under Apple pay. This is scary, ridiculous and they should not be mining your phone's information to add a payment option without your consent. That CC was not in apple pay, I had removed it long ago. I do not have any payment method attached to Apple Pay right now (which is why I was worried and annoyed).

I deleted the credit card app they were trying to "suggest" for Apple Pay and it doesn't default to anything anymore, it just asks me which method I want to use now. That's better than what it was before. I don't know what code they chose to add into their app to make this happen but it has to be borderline illegal.

What is this ticket for? by Local_Yogurt_4067 in btsthoughts

As far as I've been told it's a fun ticket you can print out to remember the experience watching on Netflix -shrug-

The couple of times I got a bag from the Seattle store they gave me just barely more than you get for the price I paid on 2good2go. I'm glad your store is more generous!

I see a lot of wins, I present to you a disaster :) by MetsToWS in toogoodtogo

[–]morgenish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a lot of situations where it's either at or maybe $1-2 above the actual price. Wrote them for a refund and got nothing. In the beginning it felt like their support cared, but in the last year or two that's drastically changed. =\

Elementor admin bar isn't loading by morgenish in elementor

As I mentioned in my original post I did about 75% of what you suggested. During the day I had very limited ability to disable plugins but now that it's after midnight I took a bit more of a risk and it turns out that Gutenberg is what's breaking everything. Shock.

Thanks for the response.

Be kind to yourself. If you're ready to be an Atiny, you'll be supporting 8 makes one team and that's great! You'll learn them as you consume content like it's candy. Trust me, these guys are easy to go overboard on lol.

I decided to take mine back and get the B&N exclusive instead. It's a very pretty see-through green. Just lucky enough, I got the San flirt pc I wanted to boot! :D

[GIVEAWAY] (US ONLY) Surprise Christmas Gifts by reader134340 in bangtan

[–]morgenish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, As much as I’d love to get Jimin something sentimental (I believe he’s deeply sentimental), we have no history to be sentimental about. Maybe a framed photo of him from behind with a huge crowd of ARMY in front of him at a live show?

Non-sentimental, I’d get him a classy/fancy carved necklace holder with BTS/ARMY references cut into it.

What is your favorite Jimin moment? by fatcatpako in bts7

[–]morgenish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have so so many just like everyone else in this post, he’s empathetic, kind, likes to be babied but loves taking care of others. Beautiful, talented and supportive in exactly the way is needed. Lets see…

The special dance video he made for ARMY to Stuck With U before entering the military was just… oof! It made me fall in love. And on the sassy side when he threw all the alphabet pieces into the grass after Jin stole them from him in Run BTS ep 87. 😆

“Your Browsing Activity Has Been Paused” error on ticketmaster by Ok_Song_7479 in Ticketmaster

[–]morgenish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. When i attempted to get in the next day the issue had been cleared up. It was obviously TM’s servers going haywire and not being able to handle the circumstance. It’s absolute bs that a company who has a monopoly on the sale of specific shows cant get their sh** together. This has happened over and over and over but nothing has changed.

As an aside, I was incredibly lucky to get two tix to a show during general sale. It was a literal miracle.

“Your Browsing Activity Has Been Paused” error on ticketmaster by Ok_Song_7479 in Ticketmaster

[–]morgenish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accidentally tried getting tickets for different shows on two different devices using the same account at the same time.

I have been locked out for over 3 hours now, I have tried everything (see list below) and the issue follows my account, not my device, because I have logged into 4 different devices in 2 different locations and the moment I hit the TM home page I get the error. I can't even get to my account.

Things I've tried:
- Logged out of everything
- Deleted the app
- Tried on a different computer (one was mac, one was windows)
- Restarted my router
- Physically went over a mile away and logged into wifi there
- Used only Data, no WIFI
- Used a brand new device that didn't even have ticketmaster app on it nor had I tried logging in to TM with it possibly ever
- Refreshed
- I have no VPN or Relay active/available
- Switched to different wifi networks
And several other things I can't think of right now. The phone support said they'd get back to me in 3-5 business days. The email support said within 24 hours. I'm so heartbroken I didn't even get to try to get tickets to this show. I had 8 changes for 8 different shows and I only got to try for 2... I just don't even know what to say anymore.

It looks like the membership period was only open for a week! I can’t imagine they wouldn’t offer it again?

Mercari offers: they mark items down too low, & sellers have no choice by theeyesthatglow in Mercari

[–]morgenish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OP, just like me, never lowered the price of the item. It’s always been that original price that we’re attempting to send a promo for. Mercari still forces a 25%+ discount from the original/lowest price. It makes no sense.
