Thank you for clarifying your remarks. I will also clarify that MB is a paid VIP, he changed his avatar and since non outside the boundries are permitted it showed up as nothing.
I am man enough to admit when I make a mistake. Now lets get past the hat issue since its not an issue at all.
Thank you.
Thanks for admitting you made a mistake about my being a member, Admin, and I assume you can also see I have made many posts that are not about the Presidente. I tried to change my avatar but was not able to, so that is perhaps why it did not show up that I am a VIP.
The hat is not an issue now that I know it was a perk officially no longer offered as part of their association with CRT.
I only brought it up in the first place because I thought it was yet another example of their hypocrisy in giving discounts to CRT yet at the same time creating this Draconian dress code policy.
I will continue to badmouth the Prez to people due to this clothing policy, but will try to refrain from doing so, here, unless someone else starts the topic and I feel compelled to defend their position.
As to those who say "stop whining", "move on", etc... all I can say is, "What would have happened if people like you had been around during the revolution or during the Viet Nam war protests?" If you don't bitch about stuff sometimes, then things don't change. Sometimes it takes some pressure against a situation to resolve it for the better. I realize the Prez's dress code is not a BIG problem in the grand scheme of things; but it would be nice if we had another option for a nice place to stay in San Jose' and I feel they have turned against us mongerer types.
I was busy with many other things in CR when there for the week, and in reality the Prez did not present a problem to me, except when I had breakfast there and found their eggs to no longer be cooked well like they used to be. I spent no more than 3 minutes stopping in there to ask about the cap, which I mistakenly thought was still a perk. So it's not like I spent a lot of time dealing with or thinking about the Presidente Hotel.
However I still discourage people from staying there, based on their chica clothing policy.
