That's right.. There is new stuff coming and soon. Get ready for some neat new features and your chance to show your support for the community.
For all you that have been asking about email addresses and other features your chance to get them arriving.

Sounds good. I'll throw in some cash for a legitimate t-shirt if we can get them produced.
Last year at Bonnaroo I was asked hundreds of times - "What is shroomy.org?" heh...hand made shirts don't work too well when people are that out of their mind.

Don't see any reason to keep it secret, while there may be a few minor additions to this list, these are the main features which we're planning to offer. The introductory rate will probably be $5/month, with discounts for longer subscriptions.
- SSL Encrypted Connections
Connect to the main page and forums via SSL using your current username and password. - Advanced Image Manipulation
Ability to turn off all offsite images (security) Ability to load all images through Coral Cache (hide your IP from the image server) - Special discounts for Shroomery Merchandise
Receive a 10% discount on future Shroomery merchandise - "Shroomery Supporter" status under your name
Special "S" flag similar to "M" and "A" flags for mods and admins - Maximum Upload Increase
Maximum upload changed to 5 MB per day - Personalized username@shroomery.org email address
User friendly secure web based client. pop3/smtp/imap support - Access to the Shroomery supporter forum
- Custom Username Colors
Select a custom color or gradient for your displayed username
Depending on interest in the supporter program, we may be adding encrypted private messages (with PGP key support) and user-created forums in the future. We're also very interested in any suggestions from users and we'll try to implement as many as we can. Peace, -Y

I'm all for being a shroomery supporter and $5/month isn't so bad considering the wealth of knowledge I've received from this place and the ongoing camaraderie I share with other members, but...
I think the colored name and the "S" flag might be a bad idea. Notice I'm just saying it might be. Ya see, in most online forum communities I've been a part of your reg date was what established your worth in the community. It was a hierarchy of respect and those who had been members since near conception were always arrogant and displayed an air of "I'm better than you" to everyone else.
I don't see that here at the shroomery though. Someone can join today and be just as accepted and valued for what they say as someone with a reg date of 5 years ago. I don't want to see this change. I don't want to see those people with that nifty supporter flag by their colored name begin to act as if they are better than anyone else because they are a supporter. Do you see where I'm coming from with this? Like I said before, I'd love to be a shroomery supporter myself and I think all the other additions are wonderful. I also pride myself in having good foresight and I see this one small change bringing about a whole new "feel" to the community as a whole. I would hope that it doesn't happen but I just want to voice my concerns so at least if/when the shroomery does change, I can have a clear conscience in knowing that I shared with you what I saw to be something that could potentially cause a problem.
Thanks for your time. 13eetleJuice

We are still working that out actually. Admins keep their A flag.. Mods while in a forum they mod have the S flag replaced with the M flag.. A and M override. We may just stack them so life is less confusing.

We will be using paypal while we finishing setup of other methods. I know a lot of people will not like that but it is a temporary solution. I'm sure we can work out other means such as money orders.

that and I can only read the first 2 letters of baraka and Vamps name is equally hard to see with my colour scheme (deluvian blue) This is just going to mean I will have to highlight each supporter's name to see who they are if they usea gradient that approaches black 
With mods and admins, i've just memorized who has what avatar but if this is widespead, it's definately a dissincentive to stick around for too long (I need black background for low contrast... my eyes! my eyes! ) I know you understand what I'm getting at

I'll pay for an account when i have somewhere to post scat then.
I like the idea of supporting the shroomery but dont want to get banned two days after paying for a years subscription.
Would paying members get away with the occasional infringment?

I don't think that the rules should be broken. If you allow supporting members to break the rules, then people just begin to abuse that privilege. Also, why would you want to? I think they are good things to have, and see no reason to bend them. OTD doesn't really have any rules, if that is the forum you are talking about. Of course, once or twice would be no big deal, but I don't know about "occasionally" With the ban issue, why not have it where if you are banned, you get the money back for how many months you won't be allowed on the Shroomery. If you pay for March, April, and May, and you are here for March, April, and part of May...you don't get any money back. If you are only here for March, you get payment for April and May back (part = as if you were here for the entire month)

You know that's a good point and something we haven't really discussed. I assume if a supporter gets banned they'll get a full refund on any unused months left on their account. Now people who actually shell out cash to support the site are less likely to have bad intentions and we'll consider this when examining the context of any questionable post. However as always we will enforce the forum guidelines in all our public forums. The Supporter forum (and subforums) should provide a place for totally unrestricted discussion (think premium vs. basic cable). Of course most subforums will still have moderators from within the supporter community but I expect there will be enough demand to justify the creation of an unmoderated "Anything Goes" subforum. So yes you can start sorting though your massive scat collection for the perfect debut post if that's your thing. Peace, -Y

*Repeats What Ythan Said*
AND! on top of that.. I would hope that a member willing the support the community through an account would also support the community in the way its needed most. Being an active and contributing member, while setting a good example for new members and supporting the rules that protect the community.

Hanky and I would be quite happy to support the Shroomery.
However - as there are 2 of us - does that mean we both have to pay ie)one payment per month for each account. Also - as we are in Australia and our dollar value and so forth - we'll have to pay almost twice as much - so do we pay in AUD or USD?

Expected release date is Monday 
There will be other options then just monthly. Right now we are going to be starting at an introduction price of $5 a month. It may end up being more or less. We don't want to lock into anything but monthly at least for this first month in case we run into any unexpected issues.

I just signed up and pointed out a bug that I found. I talked to Ythan, we're still *probably* planning on "going live" today.
I'd guess it depends on how many bugs need fixing.

wheres the nmoney going to go is what i want to know. i mean i really dont care where it goes, but the shroomery is going to be getting a good hink of change off of this deal and im sure it will more than cover all costs asoicated with the running of the mainframe and hardware and software eventually. after that, then what?

one question, is there an item that's shipped or downloaded or something? also, will "shroomery" appear on my statement? it really won't bother me, I'm just curious. I'm getting one either way.

I believe it will show up as mind media for this exact reason. I can verify this for you a little later this evening.
How it works is you sign up and are sent an email with an activation key in it. There are no downloads or shipping of items.

Well unless people decide they want to abuse it and I'm not sure how much they could do. I see no reason to put limitations on it. Hopefully someone doesn't feel the need to ruin everyones fun.

I'm sure we can do this if people want to work it out. I'm not sure we are going to want to offer that monthly as that would not only be high work load for people over here but who wants to send us a $5 money order every month?
I will get details worked out on this and let you know asap.

The are plans to accept money orders in the near future, once pricing is finalized for 6 and 12 month subscription. I know it's inconvenient that we only take Paypal and for this I apologize. Soon we'll have remedied the situation.

We definitely will try to get a money order option up ASAP. Also, just so you guys without credit cards realize, all you need to enable supporter status is a link which Paypal e-mails to you once the transaction is complete. You could always give cash to someone with a credit card and have them sign you up, this would also kind of work for people who want to protect their real identity. However our main concern is making this convenient and we appreciate you guys hanging in there while we get the MO option going.
Peace,

its cool, no rush. ill just wait. it would be more of a hassle (though not much of one at all, but still more of one) to use a friends credit card than to just wait and send in a money order. and id rather just pay up for a year at once, than to do the 5 dollar monthly thing.

has this been recorded or ignored? there are more names I can't read. I'm keeping my CSS, and considering ignoring supporters with offending names or abandoning the forums altogether. Seriously, do I need to take a screenshot to prove I have no idea who the fuck is posting?

Aren't there some kind of prepaid Visa or MasterCards you can purchase or something? I think I've heard of these before but not sure. Basically like a prepaid gamecard or something only it's in Visa/MasterCard form, can be spent anywhere, and can't be traced back to you in any fashion. Anyways, if there is a such thing, it's possibly another option for those who don't want thier identity traced by any means. Anyone have any info on whether or not these things exist?

so lets say i get a prepaid card from one of the links vamp posted above, and i use it as payment. is there a way i can pay for a whole year at once, or will i need to make the payment each month? it would be alot easier if i could just pay a years worth of payments at once.

Yeah, I think there is an option where you can buy a year subscription for a discounted price of $50 (instead of $60 if you did $5 x 12 months).

Just to reiterate..... being able to turn off gradient viewing on an individual basis would be a very good option.
And i'm down as soon as you open up the money order/yearly subscription field. Don't leave all us MO people hanging!

I will get details worked out on this and let you know asap.
I know a monthly money order would suck, but please let us know if you will accept a yearly money order or cash etc. I am not comfortable with the idea of giving out my personal info for anyone with a court order to see.

Yeah, there is no space in the email name. I used a little quirk in name registration to not have the underscore show, so it's prolly that.
I'm not sure if it works with emails tho....i'll check and report back. Thanks! (and get that money order shit setup so i can fund a year! )

A week before the subscription expires you will get a reminding PM, then if you let the subscription expire yet again.
Then within a reasonable transition time (1 week, 2 weeks, this hasn't been discussed yet in detail) the feautures will eventually stop working, yes, "like when the power company cuts the lights out".

Just in case you guys didn't notice, you can now sign up for a 1, 6 or 12 month subscription with a money order. I hope this addresses some security concerns and makes things more convenient for people without credit cards.

Bravo on the quick response with that option. I get the impression there's a whole base of people out there waiting to send. Hell, if someone wasn't feeling generous, i'd be on that list too.

I hope not everyone thinks like that about it. Sounds like it would be nice if the more enthusiastic and informed fanatics would have a place to communicate without someone asking... "what is a mushroom" or "do mushrooms give me special powers" *exaggeration yeah*
Anyways how do I access this Supporter chat or forum... does it even exist yet?

I'm having the same signup trouble as randolph carter. I typed my name, with the space, and it merged the two names into one for the email address, but when I choose my password, it says user name not found.
Is there anything I can do about this?
