What are these legal troubles? I have not seen anything in the news about it and we have received a fair number of payment from Russian members already this year.
I am not apposed to adding another payment system but I have not found one yet that has the level of global reach and trust that PayPal has, and any new system we select also has to work in Turkey.

It's been more than a year. Are you now convinced that PayPal doesn't work in Russia? And what do players from Russia do now?

In January of 2022 when this topic was opened there were no problems with PayPal in Russia, since then there has of course been an unprovoked invasion and international sections imposed because of the ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine, the world is different. I have been very flexible since then with helping those in Russia use our site and I am not going to hold the actions the Russian government against those of our members who happen to live in that country, but trying to find some way around those sanctions is a not something I am even going to think about.

Do I understand correctly that you can provide free access to the Gold account?
If so, my ID is 3197

PayPal still does not work in Russia. And it will probably be for a long time...

Actually I am surprised how many pilots from Russia have found their way around the paypal in Russia issue. I don't know how and to be honest I don't want to know how, but I see it more often.

As I understand it, the ride of unexpected generosity for the veteran lasted exactly one year. Thanks for that.

Ты не правильно понял. Это потому, что ты из страны-"агрессора"
Вот если бы ты был с Украины с жовтно-блакитным прапором... Хотя, я думаю, на Украине PayPal работает.

Ryder lets keep politics out of this. Despite what you think we continue to help our long time friends, as long as they act as friends. For a while I gave free accounts to anyone who asked, I have no wish to punish anyone because of the actions of there government. But then I was accused of rewarding those from the страны-"агрессора" so I had to find a balance, those who paid before I continue to help, but new members I am sorry.

As you're a complete middle man here Joe, I think you've taken the correct actions here and agree entirely with what you've said on the situation. Long time members from Russia should be allowed to continue to enjoy the platform.
