Title: Amiga.org Lifetime Membership Drive
Post by: SysAdmin on May 05, 2014, 09:07:41 PM
Several months back Amiga.org had continuous slowdown issues so we upgraded to a robust high bandwidth hosting plan to give all members a smooth as silk responsive site. Now we are running a special on limited number of lifetime premium memberships to help share in the hosting charges.

It's a great deal for members because you get a lifetime membership to the site with all that brings for only a one time fee of $35. Normally one year memberships are $20. So please enjoy the site and if you can become a lifetime member and no longer worry about renewals and help keep Amiga.org on net.

To become a lifetime member just click "Feed the kitty" on the lower right. Then pick custom amount and input $35. You're membership will then be upgraded to lifetime status with 24 hours or less. Or you can just send $35 to Paypal address store@discreetfx.com with subject Lifetime Member. Thanks again for the help.

I have donated to the kitty at LEAST one other time during one of your "lifetime" membership drives. I have asked several times why my membership doesn't reflect my supposed lifetime status. I see other users that have managed to achieve this mythical power. I might even donate again if we could really get this fixed.

Thank You,
Jeff

If we all upgrade to lifetime memberships, what happens next year when hosting costs are due again and we no longer have yearly renewals coming in?  I'll happily upgrade to lifetime membership but I worry about the future of our amiga.org!

I've rewarded B00tDisk with a complimentary Lifetime Membership for the funnest post I have seen in many years. That one made me laugh.

Done.  I think?  I got a popup from PayPal saying it had gone through and a PM here on this site, but no email receipt and it's not showing up on my PayPal history screen.  Weird, let me know if you don't receive in a timely manner, figure it's about darned time I donated something to this site, lol.  ;)
