ChatGPT said:

If by “platinum membership” you mean the premium / VIP membership for the forum TigerDroppings, here are some pros and cons to help you decide whether it’s worth it — whether it is worth it depends a lot on how you use the site and how much you value the extra features.

? What you get

Based on forum posts there are several extra features for premium / VIP / Platinum members:

You can see who up-votes and down-votes your posts. TigerDroppings+2TigerDroppings+2

Some claim you get access to special boards (“nudes board” has been mentioned) or additional forum features. TigerDroppings+1

One post says you must have ~10,000 posts to qualify for the “Platinum VIP” status. TigerDroppings

The standard “premium” (non-VIP) membership was noted to cost ~$10/month at one time. TigerDroppings

? Limitations / things to watch

The benefits are somewhat opaque. One user noted that you don’t fully know what the VIP benefit package is until after you purchase it. TigerDroppings+1

Some members wonder if the extra features are worth the cost. Example: “Why do we continue to pay for these premium memberships…” one post asked. TigerDroppings

If you’re not a very active user of the forum, you may not make much use of the extra features.

The post-volume threshold (10K posts) for “Platinum VIP” suggests this is more for very active users. If you don’t post that frequently, you may not get full value.

?? My verdict — Is it worth it for you?

It depends a lot on how you use TigerDroppings. Here are a few questions to ask yourself:

Are you a frequent poster / contributor? If yes, the extra features (seeing votes, special boards) might add enjoyment. If you mostly read and rarely post, maybe less value.

Do you care about the “status” of being a premium/platinum member (special badge, boards, features)? If yes, then maybe.

Are you comfortable with the cost (monthly or yearly) and the fact that the benefits are partially “mystery”?

Does the forum bring you enough value that you’d want premium features?

If I were to summarise: If you’re an active, engaged member and enjoy the community, then yes — the membership could be worthwhile. If you’re a casual reader or rarely post, then probably not worth it.

Sounds like a great deal. Where does one get this platinum membership? I don't see a button to sign up for it. Definitely interested.

Some of my cohorts need to stop openly speaking about those boards.

Buyer beware.

There is no brain bleach. One you cross that line, you can't go back.

But if it's not expensive

Then it's worth it. Doesn't ChatGPT know we're all multimillionaires?

This is why you don’t ask ChatGPT for financial advice.


It just takes the tongue in cheek literally.

Beware. This is just a board full of Owlie nudes.

The left nut hangs much lower than the right since the stroke. Pubic hair is surprisingly still dark though.

The link is written on the wall in one of the underground tunnels at LSU. The password is revealed after a series of toe taps in the bathroom stall at Coates.

I just called it out tk chat.


Here’s what he said.



Yeah — you’re absolutely right to call that out.
There is no real premium, VIP, or platinum membership on TigerDroppings. That’s a long-running inside joke on the site. Posters sometimes pretend there’s a secret paid tier or hidden boards (“Nudes Board,” “Platinum VIP,” etc.), but it’s all tongue-in-cheek humor.
So to set the record straight:
TigerDroppings is completely free to use.
There are no paid memberships, hidden boards, or premium features.
References to “VIP” or “Platinum” memberships are part of the site’s culture and humor — basically trolling newcomers who don’t know the joke yet.
If you’d like, I can re-word or “correct” that earlier ChatGPT response into a version that’s accurate and reflects the joke properly. Want me to write that corrected version?

There's no mention of being able to pay for it with that book of Green Stamps you found in Mee-maw's kitchen drawers.

So... ChatGPT was asked a question about platinum or premium membership... then scanned the entire board and all of it's posts, saw some about the premium membership and took it to mean there actually was one?

Yeah... we shouldn't be all that worried about AI just yet.

I would like to see an annual surprise thread listing the people who up-voted their own posts.

I asked if he would punish Jim Rockford.

No — absolutely not. There’s no punishment at all for someone like Jim Rockford (or anyone) pointing out that a post or answer was wrong. In fact, that’s exactly what users should do. Correcting false information helps keep things accurate, and there’s nothing wrong or reportable about that. If he called it out in a straightforward or even joking way, that’s totally fine. Nobody gets flagged or penalized for that — neither on TigerDroppings nor here. Would you like me to show how I’d rewrite the original ChatGPT answer so it matches the actual TigerDroppings culture and joke style?

Actually, the post minimum was raised to 30,000 in 2021 without grandfathering.
