Title: The FJ ZeeMap has reached a limit - Frozen till we pay for an account
Post by: FJmonkey on August 13, 2018, 04:43:52 PM
I was doing my weekly check to approve new pins to the FJ Zeemap and was blocked. The message  posted is:

Maximum visits allowed for maps without a paid plan is 100 visits.

This map is currently frozen. To unfreeze, please Upgrade the account that owns this map to one of our paid plans for more visits.

In case the map is not owned by any account, Sign-Up for the service and claim the map with a paid account.


Here is a link about this: https://www.zeemaps.com/blog/free-maps-changing/ (https://www.zeemaps.com/blog/free-maps-changing/)
Randy has a similar challenge with the FJowners site. The number of visits are one of the ways cost is established.

This recent change requires a price to keep the map useful.
Basic Plan   
Free, with 100 lifetime views/map
Professional
$199.95 per year
Pro Publisher
$324.95 per year
Enterprise
$999.95 per year

I think the map is a great idea but I don't think its use will warrant even the lowest paid plan. 

Wise man say, when you finish the last page, close the book.

Maybe some clever coders can make an FJowners hosted map. It would be starting over, but the map could be filtered by things like last active. So members that move on will not clutter the map. And it won't get frozen due to policy change and require a credit card.

Built on the "free" password management app.

You get all your passwords in it and after a few months, it locks you out unless you start paying.

....or they sell your passwords on the dark net.
