Then what about the DONATOR status?
We can still have this Rank for the new ones. Besides it's only meaning is whether someone is willing to donate a penny for the forum.
It's not the same as the VIP don't yah think?
Like OgNasty said in the post I linked above, "
there's lots of room between Copper Membership & Donator, and there's lots of features that can be added to various tiered member levels"; There is not a single reason why theymos should just make the Donator and VIP ranks accessible for everyone. It's meant to be something exclusive.
And again, like OgNasty said, "
I don't see a need to devalue the member status of those who were supporting this forum with money out of their own pockets 7 years ago, before most people had ever heard of Bitcoin".
