This makes me feel so guilty for not donating. But what can I do when I'm saving up for a car on a $80 a month income. The award looks cool and so jealous of those who can change their forum post statuses XD.

 

[DanJK]

Sounds like a good concept and a great way to get some more donations rolling in.

1 Question. Can you keep changing the status thing? Because I might be doing this soon, once I get a bank account, and my first paycheck

 

[Frank Booth]

Artimus i think is the one, and he will process those when he gets time. He is probably asleep now.

Looks like I don't have to wait for a transfer. But just need whoever runs the ego paypal account to accept my payment.

 

[Frank Booth]

The custom user title can be changed as many times as you wish.

Just as i was starting to get annoyed at the ads that made sound this comes up

Lovin it!!

 

[Jeebus]

ehh.... ehhh........

All I can say is Blech. I do not approve at all.

But if it helps get the money we need then I suppose I'll live with it, but I severely disapprove of this and what it stands for.

I'll get around to donating eventually, but I'm not going to be doing this any time soon.

What makes you say that? This is a great idea for people who want to donate, but forget too. Now a steady stream can come every month for the servers.

I fail to see a downside to this idea. :facewall:

 

[Blindy]

I'll have to get in on this as soon as possible =)

 

[Mecha Angel]

I signed up for a year. Thank you for implementing this. I have been very busy offline lately and was forgetting to donate (shameface) this will help out a lot.

Will you guys consider a form of a custom reoccurring donation charge as well? Like - more than what is listed that a person is willing to pay?

 

[Mecha Angel]

Ah, being unable to edit in here kills me even though I understand the reasoning behind it.

So here we go...

After attempting to change my custom title I came across two questions:
(1) Can we use bbc code or html in it to change colors?
(2) If no, but you decide we can then can you make the default characters more since the coding eats that up like candy?

 

[ShadowBlade72]

Just signed up as a dedicated supporter. I suggested this a long time ago, glad to see it finally coming to life.

 

[Blasphemy]

I love this idea keep up the great Ideas comming into eGO Community!

 

[Endiment]

I am amazed at how many have already jumped on the bandwagon...looks like great success to me!

 

[Baen]

[chapp]

I signed up! $5 a month is a small price to pay for punk free gaming!

 

[iEye Captain]

Professional grade marketing.

Nicely done.

 

[Frank The Tank]

This is a awesome Idea! Everyone needs to get in on this and help build eGO
