I have adjusted the forum's idea of what a Gold Donor is in such a fashion that it should preserve pretty-much everyone's status that had it on the day of this announcement and have been consistently under Gold Status up until that time until 12/31.
There are a handful of people who will get it back that under the black letter of the rule shouldn't, but there is nobody who has had it continually that I can find that will lose it prior to 12/31 the way I have things set now.
If you fall under that new classification rule you may get a notice that your user classification has changed to "Gold Loyalty", either by email or when you log in.
Please PM me if you believe you're an exception and I'll look at it manually.
