Paid Forum Supporters
 

I know I have said this before, but I believe it's important.

I just renewed my subscription to CD this morning and then counted the number of paid supporters. 22 paying members at the moment.

<IMHO> This is a great community we have here. I don't believe that FIRST would be as successful as it is without Chief Delphi. This is where we all hang out. We learn here, we share here. We grow here. Without this community, we would all be on our own. Belonging to this community makes all of us stronger.

There are 4865 active members and only 22 that help defray the cost of this community. Since you are here and reading this, you understand how important Chief Delphi is to the FIRST community. In the spirit of FIRST you don't have to pay to benefit from this, but what would you do if Chief Delphi was not here.

Put a subscription to Chief Delphi on your holiday list. Just skipping Starbucks ONCE will cover the cost. Give the gift of Chief Delphi. It's the gift that keeps on giving. </IMHO>

I wasn't aware that a subscription was available. How do you do it?

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

Quick Links tab then Supporters. Click on Paypal. You don't need a Paypal account to check out.

Options $5.00 for 6 months , $15 for 2 years.

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

Or, alternatively, click the PayPal button in between the banner ads.

I just re-upped for two years--took me five minutes to do. You should too!

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

Thanks for the info. I'm in for 2. :)

Hokey Smokes Bullwinkle, I never knew we could support CD this way. Thanks for the tip

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

But you do need a credit card (or so it would seem)...

Checks work?

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

Paypal can withdraw directly from your bank account (although you may have to create an account with paypal to do that). For other payment arrangements, see this post: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...5&postcount=14

I am proud that my name constitutes nearly 5% of those supporters.

Guys, Chief Delphi support is one of the best bargains on the Internet, and well worth not seeing the banner ads. Think of the content of the site as a bonus.

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

Is this a subscription or a donation?

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

It's a donation to help pay for CD and a subscription to not see the banner ads.

I recently learned about this about a week ago, so I need to get on the ball. Or maybe I could just wait til the 25th of December. I feel like I owe CD half my life, but $15 is good, too.

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

I just renewed for 2 years, I like that option now, I only remember the 6 month one the last few times I renewed.

Folks, for the amount of knowledge and entertainment $15 is a bargain here at CD that you will get 2 years out of instead of $15 to see a movie and only get 2 hours and popcorn stuck between your teeth. :)

I'm in for 2 ..... Thanks for the reminder!

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

I guess eyes skip over advertisements and anything near them so I completely missed the donate button. Just put in for $5 and definitely plan to keep supporting CD.

Re: Paid Forum Supporters
 

Up to 31, great job. lets keep those donations coming.
