Supporting Membership

Post by **Bryn Mawr** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 11:35 am

Tombstone,

Just in case you haven't received a notification or an auto-trigger has failed, I paid my dues last Friday but still haven't moved back to supporting member.

I'd have sent a PM but the system won't let me!

Please, please, can you get rid of the adverts - they keep crashing my browser

As an aside, is there any way the system can send an automatic reminder maybe a week before your subscription runs out - this took me by surprise and I'd prefer to get in early.

I cannot PM him directly so this seemed like the next best thing.

I see you have the supporting member icon back..so it must be fixed.

That was incredably quick - thank you Tombstone.

OK, I am a few months away..but do we get notified when we are about to expire, or what??

koan · Post by **koan** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 12:27 pm

I've been wondering that too. Can't remember when I paid or for how long.

Not that I saw - just started seeing the adverts one day and then noticed that my name had dimmed

OK, I will keep that in mind. How long is the membership good for? One year or two? I should just renew come May of next year then.

Glad I could help. Check "paid subscriptions" in your settings area to see all the specifics about your membership.

You never want to notice your name has dimmed.:wah:

Marie5656 · Post by **Marie5656** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 12:43 pm

Oh, I just checked, I am good till 5/08.

But I wonder, is there a way we can renew other than Pay Pal? I had one but cancelled it. Guess I could just redo the paypal long enough to renew when 2008 rolls around.

Could be 6 month or 1 or 2 years.

If you go into My Settings, bottom left is Miscelanious where you'll find Paid Subscriptions. Top line of that screen shows when you paid and when your subscription ends.

Gee, I do not renew for another year and a half, and am already planning for it. Is that addiction or what??

Some addictions are healthy, Marie

Forum Garden is a prime example :-4

It better be because I am seriously addicted as well :rolleyes:

CARLA · Post by **CARLA** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 8:48 pm

OK I don't see any date on mine for renewing.. Help Tombstone I don't know when to renew. I though I paid for 2 year not long ago, but now I don't see date like everyone else is seeing..:-3

How long does the subscription last? Who are the Admins. here?

CARLA · Post by **CARLA** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 10:13 pm

You can sign up for 6 months, 1year, or 2year membership. Tombstone is the Admin here.

*sniff* Well I know I've only got about a month left with my membership, and I don't think that I will be able to renew it after that, oh well.

You realise that you'll get scragged if you even suggest that you might drop off the board.

Even without a subscription you're a valued member of the community and not allowed to leave.

CARLA · Post by **CARLA** » Tue Sep 26, 2006 7:14 am

Ditto..!! we can work something out to keep you a supporting member I'm sure of it.

Why thanks Bryn, but don't worry I have no intention of leaving even without the subscription. Just would be a shame to see all my name in big green font, and those nice pictures, oh and the loss of private message space, where would I be without all that space!!

Do not even think you cannot post if you are not a supporting member!! We will still expect to see you posting regularly....till you can afford to re-up!!

Chris yes you are worth it, let me know when it expires I can do a year for you no problem.

Hey Carla

I've already got a message into TStone about it

Why don't you and I split a year for our friend Chris? :-4

Well, well, well . . .

Carla and I were ready to cover the costs of Chris' membership and lo and behold . . .

TStone said that someone else has already paid for it :-4

Chris, you have more wonderful friends here than you even know of!

What a kind and gracious gesture from a fellow Gardener

You guys *never* fail to impress me -- truly :-6

I need to get my wife on this forum. Think of how much money I could save if she spent all of her time on the comp instead of shopping. Hell she could pay all the membership fees she likes as soon as she hits 5,000 post. I will have saved a fortune by then.:wah:

Is this true!!?? Wow, that is so generous of our mystery member. Whoever you are, thank you soooooo much for this extremely kind act! :-4 If you could let me know who you are, I would like to thank you personally for this!

And big thank you to Cher and Carla for being kind enough to offer to do this for me in the first place!!

Oh I am so happy I could em.....do something crazy, (well within a certain limit of course! :wah: )
