I wouldn't worry about it. :wink:

since i see things listed for premium members that are currently available, such as seeing the people that are online. then i guess those features would be removed for non-premium members.

Is it $25 USD ?

GREG,
paypal keeps telling me i already have an account and asking for my password,
since i have never used PP I am baffled, i have tried "forgoten password", several
times, but i do not get a return post, my E MAIL is working ok.
can you give alternate payment method. what happened to life membership?
 
  • #16
You probably used an accountname that was already reserved by someone else? Try setting up a new PP account with another name.

wolram, you don't need an account with paypal to pay through paypal. I've added a longer 6yr subscription with a year discount.

constipated server? who's ugliest me or GB?

So, everyone who has the premium membership, are you enjoying it? Let's tell the "regulars" what their missing :smile:
 
  • #21
its a bit like the DRUIDS, you have to commit befor you get the
privelages of the inner sanctum, it makes me drool just thinking
about it, :biggrin:
 
  • #22
The extra perks are definitely worth it. :biggrin: For anyone that likes to send private messages, having an allocation of 100 messages sure beats the heck out of the 25 default limit. It's worth the $2 a month just for that!

Greg, once I recover form the 50 Bazillion dollars I just shelled out on home repairs, I want to donate memberships to a few people. Will there be some way to do that through paypal, or will I need to send you a check and tell you who they are?
 
  • #23
Evo, you are a great person :biggrin:
 
  • #24
But I almost never use the private message feature. Anything else? Well that, and I'm not a hot chick so I never get private messages.

Awww, I'll flood your pm box! :tongue:

Well, you can be invisible when you want. You can change custom avatars, not that I ever change mine. :wink: You get to customize your registered user status (as you had prior to the change). No ads. You get the pleasure of knowing you're supporting PF to keep it available for those that can't pay, and you get that spiffy contributor banner. :biggrin:

You get to join the wild contributor's only parties (well, if we had wild contributor's only parties). :frown:

I've noticed a bunch of new things I can do in user CP, not sure if those are available to non contributors.

I'm very glad that non-paying members still get to keep their old avatars. :biggrin:


Go Habs!

I'm more than happy to help the forums in any way I can.

Wish I could do more, but being a poor college student, there is only so much one can do...
 
  • #33
Elkay, I think it is so wonderful when a person so new to the forum makes the effort to contribute!

I've noticed several other relatively new members have also contributed. That is really great.

BTW, you are really cute! :smile:
 
  • #34
Yeah... good times, right? So why don't I see a "PF Contributor" thingy?
