If there is this premium membership thing, I will always feel as though I am missing out on something considering I have no money to spare.

EDIT: Synth's story about thanksgiving is really sad. This might not be too bad of an idea.

Keep in mind that we are just brainstorming here. I want to give the FFR community what it wants. Unfortunately we are delivering an extremely high profile site on a shoestring budget. Another way of thinking about this is that while you may feel like you are missing out, you would benefit when FFR was able to afford development of features and had super fast servers well beyond the dinky $7,000 I spent last spring on a new server for FFR.

Keep the ideas flowing though. I will definitely keep an eye on this thread. Regardless of what happens, I think I have proven that FFR is here to stay.

No. That's exactly the sort of thing I'm certain Synth doesn't want to do, and I'd hate it as well.

Other ideas are all good though.

1. Synth lives in Chicago
2. It is pretty damn central, when you factor in the Canadians.

You mean the thing that I was talking about? Do you need it to be something local and everything? I saw something like this (but didn't reap it like how I explained) with like. "Click on this link to some kinda hotdog site".

List of stuff for a Premium Membership:

1. Special Forum access
2. Access to a custom, user edited, forum title
3. Credits
4. Access to SotWs early
5. Possible access to Premium Only songs
6. No ads?
7. Premium Member Only chat
1.: What kinda of special forum access?
3.: Credits= how about not credits, just unlocked songs.
5.: I don't like that one :(
6.: I was just going to post that idea. I really like that one.

I think you quitting your job for FFR has ultimately proven that FFR is here to stay. By the way, what does your family think about that?

Do you make any profit from FFR whatsoever? If not, I really don't know how you do it Synth. Also, I saw in another thread that you said we should link to FFR at other websites. I'll be sure to do that.

If we had 100 people link to FFR from other websites and worked 1 hour at doing that, it would increase our exposure, ranking, revenue by quite a bit. Things like this are very valuable.

Sweet, <3 FFR because I can actually make changes and the main admin bends over backwards to help us.

As for premium membership, I think it'd be nice to give custom titles on the forum and a little "donator" mark next to their name or something. As for ingame stuff, let them play a downloadable version and/or receive updates as you're working on FFR. I don't even know of half of the stuff you work on for FFR, and I'm sure others are interested. That's all I can really think off of the top of my head.

In the forums you wouldn't really need a little "donator" mark. I think that should be there if you donate $20+ with paypal. Which brings up that question again about paypal that Manti asked. "Does the link cost anything to maintain? If not why not place it on the front page? a random dollar here or there is still something."

So the "donator" mark shouldn't be there for being a premium member or plus or golden or whatever you'd like to call it - because you'd have a custom title anyways and if you don't take advantage of that, then it's your choice.

Re: This will help FFR as a whole
 
Remember I said I would give you all something that would make sig life a little easier?

Well here you go, enjoy.. It even generates every type of code you would want, including forum code.

Please go out of your way to thank Jason for the code development.

Now go spread those sigs around.

Cheers,
