hmm, so the sig only works for new posts...

Yes ^. Many people take the internet for granted. The cost of running websites, maintaining them, keeping them backed up, AND bandwidth costs are quite high, but cheaper than they used to be. Bandwidth for most sites requires at least an OC-## type of connection which costs thousands per month.

The most important reason is that you'll be a better person for helping everyone to enjoy these forums by helping support the costs of maintaining bandwidth usage, software costs, etc.
It's not free to run this forum so anything that anybody can give is always appreciated, and used well to further our community.

Thank you for giving if you can.

This is a member supported community, much like the old EZ board but light years nicer.

To put it to you real simple, if we dont have enough Platinum members signed up this board will vanish.

The fee is used to pay for webspace and any other potential things that may come up.

Currently our webspace is $72 for a year. As we grow this price will rise. So we need to be prepared and have a bank for that time.

Plus its only $10 for a year. Thats the cheapest membership rate around :p Less than $1 a month....

We're working on more features for the plats, but you are basically just helping support the board. The three admin shelled out a few hundred to get this board up and running, and the plats help pay all our monthly fees. As much as I'd love to say we do, we DON'T make money off this board.

:D
Nothing much, just talk about all the non-platinums (lol) J/K (or am I.......... guess you'll have to become one to find out :)

One feature that is just around the corner for platinums, will be the ability to construct your own webpage/guestbook through the vboard software.

It's pretty neat actually..
