should the forum introduce a VIP feature?
let's say say a months subscription for £2, which would allow you to -have a coloured username -have a gif avatar -have 'VIP' above your usertitle -gain access to a private unmoderated subforum -delete your own threads -change your username (only once though.. if you want to change it back/change it again you'll have to wait until your next subscription) -increase PM box capacity permanently by 20 messages -look at who's appearing invisible -hide post count and join date -have access to a VIP theme -not have to wait 30 secs between searches. idk if that can be done though -have a 'VIP' award after 20 subscriptions -change poll options -have access to more fonts/colours/other formatting options etc. it's a feature used on a lot of forums Last edited by Me.

James was thinking about introducing a subscription service with coloured names and some other extra features a little while back..
There wouldn't be an un-moderated forum though But yeah some good ideas there Salman. It would help out a lot with hosting and server fee's etc for the forum but I suppose there is a possibility that some people would maybe feel left out? I still think it's a great idea though.

Some of the ideas sound alright, Wouldn't like it though if it included a private unmoderated subforum and being able to view people appearing invisible

If they got their own sub-forum for VIP only and they used that all the time, I think if some of your friends on here did VIP and you didn't, it would kinda single you out a bit and would either pressure you into buying it without wanting it or you'd just leave the forum.
But some of the ideas sound quite good, except I wouldn't mind us being given those for free

Would be surprised if anyone actually paid.
Can remember that text feature thing a few years ago, think it got used about 5 times |

Yeah I think it's a good idea in principal. If it's optional all good. Wouldn't like to have to pay a subscription to view the regular site. My partner is a member if a forum who asks all members for regular donations for the upkeep of the site and they don't get anything extra. It's not compulsory but loads of them donate.

And a subscription option would help towards costs but it wouldn't ever be compulsory. Last edited by Josy; 03-05-2014 at 07:00 PM. |

Yes, it's a great idea, I don't think I would pay for it myself because I don't really have much money for leisurely spending. I think it would benefit the forum a lot and I think if people are contributing money to the forum they would take it a bit more seriously too. I don't think it would make anyone feel left out tbh, They will deserve the perks for donating and it wouldn't be a steep price, so I would say go for it.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

and people thought the post count was an issue for elitism
I see no point in it, and I wouldn't invest in it, so I voted no.

I don't think you can have a say on what's rude or not, I've lost count at how many times you've insulted me because i'm young.
