New Changes; Introducing "paid" membership options...

[HybernaTe]

---

this is the point that users will have to pay, i myself willing to pay but with all the extra pm size. title edits, other upgrades (photos, adult access and etc.) seems its not a big deal (i say its not convincible).

i would suggest that a PAID member can attach his own custom signature (HTML + IMAGE this might be a link to a website or product) that will surely make sense.

in this type of business (forums memberships) - people will pay or subscribe more membership if you have exclusive content to offer or a unique service that differs from a free account, or something that can really convince.

cheers!

ramiscar, yes, there will be another date...

HybernaTe, the point is, if you want to support the site then support it. If you feel it is not worth supporting, don't bother, we don't need your support. I can keep iSTORYA running as it is. As you can see, even with the paid membership options, everything in iSTORYA.NET remains free for everyone and I intend to keep it that way. We are unlike other sites out there whose only goal is to make money. If you avail of our membership options, you are helping the site and at the same time helping others in need (thru our outreach). In due time those who have been supporting us will get more than what they are getting now.

tsk tsk..better leave the forum's interface as clean as it is..free from flashy signatures and image links..and yeah the premium fee is intended to upgrade the server and funds for the outreach program which for me is very justifiable enuf.

the admins, I think, would have wanted this site to remain free if not only for some unfortunate incidents that occured in the BS section in the previous months. I guess it's a way for them to get a handle on the situation before it gets out of hand thus the introduction of "paid membership". it not only safeguards both buyers and sellers alike, but they also found a way of promoting their pet project which is the outreach program, which in my opinion, is a very noble undertaking. they don't need to be convincing selling the "paid membership" 'coz all those other features were just gimme's and not the main product they're "selling". just let them do their thing 'coz they've been here for awhile now, meaning, they must be doing the right thing don't you think?

more power to Istorya :mrgreen:
