re: TAF Rant

I agree with you, Barry, that TAF does a poor job of communicating with its "customer" (donor) base.
Their automated point system has improved a bit over the past year in that when you make an online donation, the Priority Points for that donation are posted to your account within one business day. It used to take weeks before the additional points showed up.
I happened to notice I wasn't getting the annual "loyalty" bonus points so I called TAF and spoke with a lady who handles the Priority Points accounting. (I believe her name is Amanda.) She explained that loyalty bonus points are now only given at 10 years, 20 years and 30 years of consecutive giving and not annually.
EDIT: Regarding TAF and Bayou Tradition, the official LSU NIL collective, being connected, they aren't.
It's my understanding they can't be connected if they are to meet the NCAA's rules as well as the state of Louisiana's law regarding NIL.
That's why you have to set up a separate account, i.e., sign-in ID and password, for NIL (Bayou Tradition Collective) giving as opposed to TAF giving.

The membership levels don't seem clear, i can't even tell if i still get 3 pts for my 100-dollar annual membership.

Now if you try to login on the taf website it sends you to the LSU sports website.
I just signed on to TAF and this did not happen. Once signed in, the site shows me what I owe for this year.

Nah maybe we just have unintelligent fans. Is it LSU’s job to explain it to you like a 5 year old?
Unintelligent? No. a-hole fans on an anonymous website? Absolutely

Thanks, this was quite helpful.
I deduced as much, but man it wasn't very clear and it just annoys me that as much money is being pumped in they do such a poor job of communicating.

The only real reason I'm still reading this thread is to see how many downvotes you consistently get.

If they want the man’s money yes I expect them to make it clear
