What does it get a member who chooses to donate?

Some ideas i can think of:
1. Membership status change from 'Registered user' to 'Premium user' + color change
2. Increase in private messages allowance for inbox
3. Can customise own Profile
They should be able to lock their own threads or re-open them if locked too.
Sound good, i will have this included.Quote:

It would be nice if the forum regulations, like avoiding swearing or offending people would be respected, or if the ones who hold a position of responsibility on the forum would try to rectify the situation.
Are you still upset because of what KingZ said in your thread? I mean you reported it 3 times over the period of about 8 hours, which I was probably at work or sleeping.Quote:

Here is how it works Valixy. We respond to reports when we get a chance, and browse the forums when we can as well. There are two of us and hundreds of you, and there are VERY few people who actually report posts. When something is reported, we do our best to take care of it. The only reports I ever see from you are ones that insult you directly. If you want to see the regulations upheld, become part of the solution and use the tools available to report ALL posts you see that are offensive, not just the ones that attack you directly.
NOOOOOO !
Don't report EVERY post. What is this, a new police state?
If you donate you should be able to not have to see the quote of the month.

You have been reported to the mods.Quote:

We won't act on many of them. Most of the reports are BS squabbles in threads, but there are some offensive posts that should be reported that aren't.Quote:

Thanks you for your suggestion.
Thank you for sticking to the facts. I have reported kingz's rude post on my thread Writing Contest 3 times over a period of 3 days followed by a 4th request to close my account which has been discussed with the Admin.Quote:

I have been on this forum for almost a year and if my memory isn't failing I reported a post that was offending a poster and his wife, two posts that I considered racist and the last post that you mentioned and was on my thread. I can't think of any other post I reported unless I clicked on Report Post by mistake.
I appreciate that kingz's post has been deleted and also the courtesy and professionalism I have encountered.
Surely you can appreciate the difference between harmless funny trolling and actually offensive posts, though? I mean, I get it that in this case you took it personally because it was in your thread, that's understandable, but when similar posts don't concern you directly, I don't think you (the general you now) should report them. It's like when they kept banning Imma. Sigh.
^^^ First, I have been far from having a perfect intervention on the forum myself and I am aware of it, but I'm learning and will not repeat certain mistakes.
What bothers me or doesn't from the posts I read or the kind of humour I appreciate, it's my business, but it would be pretty pathetic to spend my time reporting posts. It's not in my character but if that was indeed the case, the considerations addressed to me on this occassion would be quite unpleasant to read most probably. Besides people are responsible for what they post and how they treat others, and if someone doesn't like it they can always ignore, reply back and stand for themselves, report or look for a different forum where they are better treated. It's obvious though that there are more possibilities for people (new/old users) to donate if they are treated with a bit of consideration.
P.S. If some people don't mind being sworn at, hopefully those who like to swear will at least make the effort to choose the adequate threads for doing that.
That's actually what I'm saying, let's not report posts that are clearly meant to be trolling and funny, unless they are directed at us directly, in which case it's understandable that we would want to report them.Quote:

Reminds me of that old George Carlin bit about the Seven Dirty Words You Can't Say on T.V.

The swear filter doesn't work on me because I'm awesome.

... Such a brat.
Wow. That is the first time you've ever thanked me.Quote:

So if you help pay for the site, you still don't get access to the 'secret' forum? I'll pass, thanks.Quote:

I'm sure there could be a "premium members" forum.Quote:

As far as the other secret forum, I'm not even sure it belongs on this site. Actually, for a long time, that forum used to be on another site. A lot of those members have been around since 2004, around the time LF started. Many of us know each other in real life.
[edit] Actually, there's only one active thread in the secret forum now anyway. The rest are all locked from inactivity. It's essentially dead.
