erickongIt really doesn't take that much to run a forum. Moderating's the hard part. Provisioning some space to chat and retain info, that's as simple as paying a monthly fee and clicking a button or two.
I think the reason Drop screwed it up so hard is that they kept trying to game their community with sock puppets and ersatz peer pressure instead of interacting with us as Drop. Way too slick and glib. When people know you're trying to play them, you stop getting the benefit of the doubt -- and that trust, when you get down to it, is what's at the heart of communities. When it's gone everything else stops. Suddenly the default reaction to anything you say stops being 'really?' and starts being 'yeah, right, sure thing asshole.'
The reaction they're getting now is what it looks like when the trust factor disappears. It will take a while and a lot of hard work on the part of Drop staff, answering questions and being legit about stuff, before it starts to come back, and the rub of course is that they might not have that much time left. Some of them look like they're trying, and I hope they keep at it, but it's really hard to get any sort of warm and fuzzy feeling about Drop right now, especially with all the silence from the rest of them about whatever's going on behind the scenes, and all the staffing churn.
On the other hand I LOVE the fact that other people are stepping up and indicating that they see a value to embracing the communities that have sprung up around Drop. Makes me want to buy something from them.

How do I stop renewal of keyboard club?
Hi there, I've been a member of the keyboard club for the past year, I'm afraid that in the next 24h the Keyboard Club will renew automatically. I have checked on my profile but couldn't find anywhere a way to stop it. Did i miss it ? Will it renew automatically ? TIA Mauringhio

I miss Massdrop
Is it just me or was this place much better when it was Massdrop? Instead of expensive collaborations, it was all about finding good deals that got better with more participation. Anyone know if this place will ever revert to those times or if there are any other sites that might be doing what this site stopped doing?

Do products in the same order ship together if they have different shipping estimates?
I bought an order that consisted of products that were ready to ship on Feb 13 and March 29. Will they ship all together on March 29 or will they be split and the orders that are ready to ship earlier ship on Feb 13?

Anybody know how much we have to pay in Europe when buying stuff from Drop?
I'd like to buy the Sennheiser 6xx but I have no idea how much is going to be after adding delivery and custom fees. Does anyone know? I live in Spain.

USB-C Port glitchy AF on my Drop SHIFT, arrrrgh help
As above, my keyboard routinely drops connection with my computer; I've tried three different computers, they're not the issue. It resolves itself after being "hard reset" (unplugged), but it's driving me insane because obviously it acts up more when I need it most. All drivers seem to be up to date, any thoughts? (I've also changed the cable, please ppl)
