Introducing the HDForums Riders Club!
 

Hey everyone, we've got something new to share with you. We have come up with some great features, and additions to the user experience here on HDForums!

Before we get into all of that, I'd like you to please, read this:

Nothing is being taken away from current members, and new members will continue to receive exactly the same features as they do today, I want that to be VERY clear! http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...lies/smile.gif

Now that we're clear, let's move on. We've created two new levels of membership, 'Supporter' & 'Club Member', each member will carry an icon above each post that indicates their level of support. We've even made a moderator specific badge for all site staff. Check them each out here:

Both levels will receive additional forum features such as:

• Colored username
• Larger profile photo sizing
• Slightly larger avatars & signatures
• Increased PM space & the ability to message more users at once
• More photo album space, and support for larger images

We've also added some neat, new features to the forum:

• Panic Button
• Radio & TV plugin

Panic Button: The Panic Button will be placed at the bottom right of every post on the site. Club Members can set a URL in their userCP on the options page, for it to automatically forward to if the boss shows up unexpectedly. (ie: http://google.com)

Radio & TV: This feature, for Club Members only is located in the quick links section of the nabber. It will enable you to listen to your choice of radio, or TV station, right here on HDForums!


Finally, we've got some physical items, that you can collect, and continue to add to. We're going to send out a site logo sticker to both Supporters & Club Members.

Only Club Members, however, will receive an exclusive embroidered site logo patch, and yearly chevron piece. The chevrons will be issued each year, offering an opportunity to display your support on an ongoing basis.



I'm really excited to launch this program, I've had a lot of help from Terry & Patrick & Amanda along the way, so if you like it, I can't take all the credit, and if you hate it, it's all their ideas http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...ilies/wink.gif

link broken at bottom, need to remove a "

Thank you, there's always one thing that slips through!!

I saw the personal link when got back on.
I'll do my part to help keep the forums up and running, (besides visiting and buying from some of the featured sponsors).

How long should it take to kick in once paid?

As soon as they have your paypal or credit card payment.
I joined and within seconds was a club member.

Hm, nothing doing for me.

Hey Odious, I don't see any subscriptions other than Kowan's. Can you explain what you're trying to do? I can even give you a quick phone call to go over it. I don't want any of this process to be confusing for you guys :)

Let me know either way!

cheers,

Done...where's my stuff!!!!

You need to log out and back in. Most of us have the auto logon set so you have to purposely log out.
