Re: Paid Forum Supporters

I just signed up for two years. $7.50/yr is a great bargain; my team and I get way more benefit than that. Plus supporting a tool for a community that supports FIRST - how can I pass that up?

I'm not trying to start an argument, but I happen to like PayPal. However, I agree, having more options is a good idea, and might even get a few more donors.

I like something low key like the "Donor" badge. For now, maybe I'll add something to my "Custom User Title". Just to show some support; maybe it will inspire someone else to donate.
