I want to join Mon Amour but with all the problems that there has been lately i am not sure if i should join or not.
So i am thinking that i could just join the online only part instead of the one where you actually receive the book. But is it worth it?
I know that is a risky question here because really just about anything Mana is worth it to me, but i am talking i am a poor kid who wants to love Mana sama with joining so should i just get the online one?
And if i join the online one can i still order a pendent? And other things like the binder and whatnot?
Sorry if these are stupid questions, i was just curious as to others opinions.
I just heard so much about Mon Amour not being able to get out issues and poor translations and such.
So what do you think?

I would greatly not recommend becoming a Platinum member, but I think the basic membership should be okay.

*to current members* Have all current issues been translated so far?

Right now, M+A aint worth a dime in any shape or form!

I really wouldn't become a member at this point. I want to become a member too, but what do you get?
Nothing. Really, nothing.
I don't think it's worth it. A friend of mine ordered a dvd and pendant from the M+A online shop. She never received anything.
And I know about people who didn't get their ticket confirmation for Dis Inferno. Meaning they probably can't go there.
Really, Don't become a member!

I came close, but then I stopped myself and I'm glad I did because it turns out everybody that joined or is a member is being ripped off right now.

Like I posted in the Mon+Amour section...

I think we can start calling Madousho a myth...

what exactly are the problems with mon+amour at the moment? because i was going to get a membership for christmas but now im not so sure. i mean i understand what dix-ange said but how big are the problems?

thanks

We haven't got our Madousho in months (think the last one we got was in May) and there haven't been any translation posted in ages. I'm not sure about the concert tickets reservations though since the only time I used that service was before all the problems started.

i wonder what will Mana do when he reliazes the point that M+A neglect reached?

he should give you yr money back, or give you something REALLY special...

i wonder if he's not afraid of being sued? i mean, there LOTS of fans unpleased, why if a group of M+A members get tied of waiting and decide taking law action...

that's :ph43r:

if i were he, i will be really scared...

It sounds almost like you are freatening him :(

but I guess he is slowly draining your money away and slowly ripping you all off

I'd set a date *I'm NOT apart of the fanclub*

that all of the fans will file complaints to him

on that special date

and one complaint with ALOT of signatures on it

people can scan in the signatures and send it to one person, that person can buy an exercise book or something and, on the first page of that book have an official sounding polite complant, and the next pages bearing the signatures

because maybe when he sees that he will realise the situation *if he doesn't relize it now*

because it's like this example I got shown when I was in primary school, about all the causalties in world war II, the teacher had maths exercise books *with all those squares* and he counted the squares on a page and then he figured out how many books it would take to account for all the causalties

and when I saw the HUGE amount of books, I really did cry, it really got to me

and I think it would have the same effect, if you send him the signatures

:P

I don't know why I randomly plan things I just do :heart:

No, I don't recommend joining Mon+Amour right now. Its definitely not worth it until problems get cleared up. Either save your money or spend it on something more useful. ;D The only upside RIGHT now to Mon+Amour would be the early fan club tickets (which I BELIEVE are working, but I couldn't be too sure) and buying merchandise such as the pendant and extra binders (although I don't know how well thats working right now either). I've heard of problems in just about every single area of Mon+Amour currently so I would advise against the entire thing, which is EXTREMELY hard for me to say...but really, if you have priorities, take the more useful priority.

To the others>

I don't think complaining about it to Mana or Midi: Nette is going to do a thing honestly. How many people have complained now and NOTHING has happened? How many people have grouped together and done things such as signatures with a complaint and STILL received no response?? Just about everyone.

I'm going to sound like a TOTAL hypocrite for saying but I think the RIGHT thing to do is to at least give an idea of something that would be effective:

I think the only way anyone is going to make Mana realize the Mon+Amour neglect is if people stop buying fan club memberships and/or stop renewing your membership.

I sound like a hypocrite because even though I am frustrated, I am foolish enough to continue my support and renew my membership. I'm just not ready to give that one up because I still have a little hope left in Mana that this will all get cleared up at some point or at the very worst, shut down. :/

Well that is the think i am a pretty sound beliver that he will get things all worked out. So i guess i am going to wait and see it some things get all resolved then get my membership. I mainly really want the pendent and a couple other things fromt he store so i guess i will have to see what happens with my fellow Mana fans and things that they have ordered.
Like Dix ange the pendent and things your friend ordered...did they still get the money taken from them or did it just never go through?

At this point, even the Fanclub tickets orders don't work as they should. I believe a lot of people didn't get a ticket confirmation, which means they just don't get any tickets. I can't imagine how frustrating this must be!
I don't know if they actually paid for the tickets or not...

The online store just seems dead or something. You can order something, you will get a confirmation mail, but that's it. Nothing else will happen.

I myself really really really wanted to become a member, but not anymore... I will become a member when Moi dix Mois will release a new album though. Because I want M+A tickets when they'll come to Europe again (which will likely happen once they've released a new album).
But even being a member of M+A is no guarantee for a good spot in the front row anymore, it seems...

I think it's wrong to blame Mana for this, though. It's the fault of Midi:Nette.

But Mana is basically the master mind behind Midi: Nette AND the overall head of Mon+Amour so in all honesty it kinda is his fault. :/ Yeah Midi: Nette SHOULD do something about it and it is still partially their problem, but if they say something and Mana isn't listening to them, then what say do they really have?

Of course we can't point fingers really and say its definitely a fault because there very well could be something going wrong that we simply aren't told about. Although I believe we should a least get emails explaining the situation, whatever is going on...but what can you do? Theres really nothing until things get situated out.

Just as a side note in response to dix-ange, when you order Mon+Amour tickets through the fan club you don't pay up front. You pay when you get to the venue, so those Mon+Amour members STILL might have a chance to get tickets if they go up to the venue and show their ID. At the very least, they weren't jipped out of money in that aspect.

Mana's been hit by the credit crunch XDDD

XDDD

yeh, that's the reason!!

hahahaha, oh, I knew that was coming!

Do the japanese MA members get their Madoushos?

[pls don't kill me]

If not: what if he is not posting Madoushos, because they would be all about the reunion of MM ...? <33

[/pls don't kill me]

NO! don't say that! :( yr playing with my feelings! X(

you know in a strange way that might be a possiblity

I wonder what Mana is doing buisness wise sometimes you know like is he making more Madoushos or is he just producing stuff for Kanon or filling out pieces of paper

God If I know :plant:

there will be another M10M + Kozi concert this summer...so, if you squint real hard, it might LOOK like MM.....ok, not. LOL
