We have a donation system where you can become a "Contributing Member", where you will receive access to goodies that normal members don't have.

Remember, if you are a contributing member you get news delivered to you before normal members do, just one of the advantages of being a Tech Forums Contributing Member.

Cheers

What about both? helping out and contributing? I don't mind. At this time no but within a month I can. What's the limit?



Posted by: Chopper

You may do both if you wish. Theres no limit on what can be donated to Tech Forums. All money recieved goes back into Tech Forums.

Hey Chopper, with the new owners, is this still in effect?

Any of the owners/admins/older mods can probably answer this too.

:confused: - No idea!

Good thing you pointed that one out.

I'm sure El Chop with clear this one up :D



Posted by: Shakie

^Bump^

Never got an answer, but still curious.



Posted by: Chopper

The contributor forum has been neglected for some time now as I coulnd find enough to give to contributers of the forums. Im now sure what Larry has been planned for it.



Posted by: Shakie

Thanks.

Hello...

I've been around (looking and snooping and getting used to the board)... but have not posted much :)

I think the idea of "contributing" member is a GREAT idea.
I will come up something similiar and let you all know the details.

I think you will like it!

Is this dead? I go into that forum and there is nothing.



Posted by: Shakie

I think that they are still working on it. *fingers crossed*

I think that this is an excellent idea for "regular" members that post often.



Posted by: Chopper

The Contributing Member forum will proberly be reopened when vBulletin 3 goes Stable. As at present contributers have to be marked manually and vb3 will allow us to run a special forum that is automated.

Any idea as to how long you're looking at Chop? - Just out of curiousity! :)

<-Is a contributing member *discos*, hey how about with these donations, ya'll do something like.. contests? sounds quite sane to me, if everyone on here donated a doller, i don't think you'd need all that money for this website.. you'd end up using our money for youselves, and that's not what it should be about.. just sayin...

yeah if every one on this forum donated $1 the forum would make about $11,000 nice way to make money but of course we'd want this money to go toward the forum not the own personal exspences though i doubt they would do that



Posted by: HoLoCroN

Um.. I think the forum is a personal expense for the owner...:)

Maybe, but really. To put everyone out only one dollar... It's not like you'll miss having that dollar around to play with or anything.:)

if they had 11,000 dollars they could expand the site into a fenominal thing. get partnerships and such. possably pay someone for a while to make a newsletter(he he ill take the job for free lol) or just expanding 11,000 dollars wont go far but will make a huge improvement and will gaurentee the site will be up for life(hopefully lol



Posted by: HardKore{Killa}

Yeah $11,000 could go far for this forum



Posted by: Demalii

right, well i don't think there's actually 11,000 members that are current on here, but of course the money for this forum would be awsome, i am just saying, also give back to the community ya know, that's where i think the contests would be a cool idea, doesn't have to be huge like a new rig, but maybe a hard drive, cd-burner, whatever just little trinkets that the modders can rip apart lol, but as soon as i have money again i'd be more than happy to donate money, even every month if needed, just gimme a place to mail it to =)



Posted by: jaksback

ya know, I'd like to donate money too, but I can't do it thru any PayPal stupid thing cuz no one wants to give me a credit card. How would I go about mailing? It may not be much but hey, it'd be a token of appreciation for all the help and enjoyment I've gotten.



Posted by: HardKore{Killa}

im earning money through hits4pay and when i make $25 it will go to paypal and then i will be able to send it to the forum and then i will be a contributing member yay
