question about supporting member status

Re: question about supporting member status

It doesnt make sense for PMs to be a perk. I can understand sigs and avatars (not really understand...but atleast it makes some sense), but if only a few people have PMs then only a few people can use them and contact only that select group.

That seems a little silly, at best.

x2. thats the point im trying to get across in a nutshell.

Re: question about supporting member status

I think the premium members should get the badge, AND a private forum, then let everyone have sigs and pm's, it would be so much better! Don't even need to forum the badge is cool enough :)

And camarov6.com needs a new design, the site looks like it was made in the 90s.. cmon..

Define that please... the two style available are better than the standard VB, I've just left it there for those that like old. I personally like the blue style. But again... define what 90's is? I know Firebird is in need of a make over, just not sure when we will do that.

Re: question about supporting member status

i can help you with new styles and a new firebirdv6.com site. i love making sites and i would wana help out. he means it is just 90s meaning its too basic. there is like two colors to the whole site. (i think)

Simplicity at it's best :D I've seen if you over complicate stuff, it's going to throw off many members. The simpler, the better. Easy to find things.

If you want to mock something up and email, again, I'm not against suggestions. Who knows where it might lead :tup:

Re: question about supporting member status

I dont mind the $10 to support the site, but its how noone can put up with anything. Like a week or so ago i look in the lounge and theres 8 locked posts on the front page, and most of them i dont even see why they are locked. How about when you lock something there atleaast has to be a reason by the locker...or instead of locking it just edit posts so we can still discuss the subject at hand...not ot much to ask is it?

I locked them, and I don't need to give a reason when I do it. :mad:

I got complaints about the Lounge. Those threads were locked because they were out of control - worthless, post whoring, pages and pages of nothing.

I am now watching the Lounge a lot closer. :spank:

Re: question about supporting member status

yes! i agree with BLLDOGG........ after being in this site for over 2 years, i deff. can say the lounge have been a little loose lately ............. out of the 4 moderators , i think only two of them are active 95fbirdkid and james .......... Dan M (last log in was last year), infernal (signs on once in a blue moon) ........... there were many threads that turned bad because mods didn't closed it ......... again, i am not bashing any mods , they have a life too ....... family kids etc ...........so, i think we should appoint someone more active (i.e. vanbibber,3.4 slow to go, udelose98,str8racer or even BLLDOGG) to mod the lounge ........... thanks



:)

I'd love to help mod the lounge.

Re: question about supporting member status

I've been here long enough to realize that all that happens here really is worth $10 a month, and I am seriously considering forking out the $10..but you know what, saying 10 bucks won't break anyone isn't always true. I'm only 16, I started saving for a Camaro at the age of 10..I went an entire year without spending a single dime, and saved as much as i could until I finally found my car. .. Paying for my car, gas, insurance, and repairs alone is hard for me to do on my minimum wage job that i hardly have time to go to.

Like I said, I'm not against the whole paying thing, but I think this site could use some improvements. I think a makeover as mentioned is overdue.

I can see how paying members can get extras like signature pictures and avatars and the 'supporting member' bar, but i really do think PMs should be standard, and I also think it would be fair to give non-supporting members one or two lines of text for a signature.

I'm a member of FTV6 too, but I'm still partial to this forum..I honestly like it better, but because of things like this, this board has seemed to slow down, and i can get quicker and better responses in some sections of that board over this one.

Re: question about supporting member status

a site facelift should not even been mentioned. it wasn't buy like yesterday that this site was brought into the 21st century and what a feat it was.

Except it's $10 a year, not a month
