That offer was for everyone that registered or renewed from October of 2017 to October of 2018.
Also, the BBS software does not display the renewal button until the actual expiration date.
I am assuming that Beareye took advantage of the 2 for 1 Dave deal four years ago and paid for two and got four years. That makes him a soothsayer knowing in advance that Frost would be hired and he got two extra years instead of one.
Thanks for responding Max (and All "N"). Yes, I took advantage of a buy two years, get two years free promotion that was offered at the time. I think my actual renewal date is the 16th, so I will wait until then to see and use the renewal button.
