    You are not showing up as a supporting member. If you are a supporting member, you may want to contact Stefan, seems to be a problem.

    I believe you can click on the supporting member icon under any of our user names and it will tell you. It is $20 a year to be a supporting member, and well worth it.

    I agree 100%. Come on guys, $20 a year can't kill anyone! That's $1.66 per month! I am on here every day and every night and will likely be for years to come! There is so much knowledge and helpful people on here that I feel guilty only having to pay $20.
    Becoming a supporting member also gives you a few extra benefits!
    I also want everyone to know that I spoke with Joe before he posted this and I told him I thought it was a great idea! Stefan had nothing to do with this post and very seldom even asks anything from any of us...except to help keep a clean site. Thanks Stefan! :Handshake
    I commend Joe for yet ANOTHER great idea!!! :thumbs2:

    I have been a supporting member for a couple years now. I used to come home and check my email after work, now I come home and check the forums and see whats going on. This site has provided me with many hours of reading and researching, entertainment and most of all one of the friendliest sites on the net. I have made many friends here and am sure I will make many more.

    But the one thing I dont do is give advice. :naughty: LOL.

    And to those of you that I have never communicated with maybe someday we can will chat with one another. Its sorta lonely being the only Mavericker for miles around and if it was not for this site I would have no idea that there are so many of us.

    Thanks Stefan :thumbs2:

    The way I like to look at it, there are several ways that you can support the forum like purchasing a supporting member subscription, writing tech articles and helping others.

    Not everyone is in the position to become a supporting member or have the know how to contribute technically. They can support the forums in other ways like greeting new members, posting birthdays, posting ads/auctions that they find on the net and reporting spam/inappropriate threads.

    Every little bit helps the forum and I dont want anyone to feel pressured to purchase a supporting membership.
