Good Charlotte Worldwide: Reinvent

This petition is to bring fan club Good Charlotte Worldwide to the attention of Good Charlotte and Music Today.

So it has come to our attention that this site is falsely advertised to new / current member and only really find out the real true about this fun club once joining. Quote GC Worldwide GC Worldwide was formed to bring Good Charlotte and their fans closer together this fan club has brought us no where nearer to Good Charlotte than when we firstly joined. Also as stated by GW Worldwide By joining, fan club members will receive monthly emails updating them on news, tour information and all fan club promotions. Email is the primary source by which we communicate with members We do not receive monthly emails updating us with news, these emails are few are far between, We havent received any offers or club promotions. Fans of the club feel short changed and lied to as in the beginning GC Worldwide made all these promises to there members upon joining yet no one has seen any of them. Monthly Contests? Monthly news letters? Bringing Good Charlotte closer towards there fans ? Was all this just a plan of getting people to join and take their $20.00 for what? ..


Membership.:
At present the membership for GC Worldwide is $20.00 USD. For this members will have opportunities to purchase tickets to shows in advance of the public ticket release so far pre-sales has been USA ONLY. Fans also receive Ticket giveaways, meet and greets & concert ticket upgrades. There has only been one Ticket giveaway to the T Mobile all Access '05 Concert Series which was for US residents only. Also the GC Worldwide Heroes signed poster contest. Sure we maybe dont live in America but that doesnt mean we didnt help it the Hurricane Katrina relief. It could maybe have only been a donation towards the aid of this cause but we maybe still helped in some way possible. There has been no meet and greets during their Chronicles of Life and Death world tour and no ticket upgrades, No backstage passes, No VIP, No meet and Greet tickets given away. As stated on the login page members only website for Good Charlotte news, tour information, interactive and behind-the-scenes multimedia, an extensive collection of photographs, monthly contests, giveaways, interviews, along with a message board and chat room. So the news was last updated in November of 2005. Most of the news and updates are found on the Board and is supplied by Us, the Fans. Theres not a lot of Exclusive photos its not a big gallery. Monthly giveaways in the year that I have been on GC Worldwide Ive only ever seen 2 contests which were for US residents only. Why called this club Worldwide if it doesnt support contest out with the USA, We have all paid $20.00 just like the rest and would like the chance to be able to enter. Interviews?, there hasnt been any one this club. Really the only thing worth joining this fan club for is the Message board, The amazing fans that are all on GC Worldwide to support Good Charlotte but once we had joined everything changed, we didnt stay for Good Charlotte. We stayed for the other fans, the other fans that had became our friends in that year. The fan club was formed in September 2004, Good Charlotte Worldwide is designed to foster greater interaction between Good Charlotte and their fans. Were still waiting for that interaction, That chance to ask Good Charlotte something. The only great interaction on this club are the fans themselves. As time goes by this fan club has nothing to offer us as member and all updates, news and Good Charlotte interaction is over on Good Charlotte .com the free official site. So why Remain a GC Worldwide member?.

Ideas / suggestions to improve GC Worldwide.:
-Photos changed on GC Worldwide as we all know Chris Wilson sadly left the band sometime ago in 2005 and is still to be seen in the fan club main photos, these photos are old and need updating.

-More news & media updates, At present it is the fans that is supplying the fan club with news via the message board. Possible a digital letter written by Good Charlotte to there fans once in a while just to let us know how there getting on, what theyve been doing and how the new album is coming.

-10\% discount or special offers to Made clothing/ DCMA / Level 27 Clothing or Good Charlotte Store.

-Moderator / Admins present on the message board, there is times when fans could have problems with other members and theres no none to resolve them or answer any questions. There has been no moderators/ Admins present on the board since November 8th, 2005 with a total of 4 posts. We would also like extras forums such as Art & Creations For drawings, collages, paintings, and any Digital art by the fans. We suggest a Sale & Trade section so fans can sell or trade something in there GC collection with another fan or even post what there looking for so fans can help look for it on sites such as Ebay, HMV, Amazon, etc. The Tickets section isnt use a lot so we think it would get more usage out it as a Tour section


-Contest Monthly as stated on GCWW Registering/ login page. Contests should also apply to World users not jus US residents as we all pay equal in this fan club so we should all get equal opportunities thats why future contest should ship worldwide.



-Good Charlotte Radio, A music play list radio that we can listen to while on the site. Possible the play list could be edited and remixed by DJ Benji Madden / DJ Joel Madden. Possible new tracks first from the follow up album to The Chronicles of Life and Death

-The membership price!. Fans wouldnt mind if the price went up to cover costs as long as we had something to show for it. An exclusive GC Worldwide T-shirt, Limited edition CD for members only. The fan club price should be flat rate for all member but the shipping costs per country could be different to cover the cost of postage out with the US.
