Thats only for past admins who don't want to have to go through the apprenticeship. Yes but cancel your subscription and donate manually every month by clicking the donate button. Just to add, everyone who has a subscription with me or haggard will have it cancelled within the month or 2. Please cancel your subscription.....I will count your payment when received but if you have not canceled by the time it recharged I will have to cancel it myself. I no longer want to spend time researching what Paypal account belong to who. If you use the donation button the form will tell me who you are and make my life easier. Because I can ;). Mainly to prevent good admin from leaving us because they cant afford it anymore and to save me and Garfield time by not having to monitor subscription every day and constantly having to remove and setup people. I think this will promote growth and allow us to keep admins longer and maybe for life. Financially, this could cost us but we are leaving the size of the community solely up to the community. It will allow people who really can't afford subscriptions to donate when they can afford it. I also think people didn't donate who would have if they didn't have to pay monthly. Only time will tell but I can assure you this will increase our player counts and grow the community from a (total number of players stand point). NO one pays for admin. Some of you are confusing this. If someone donates $20+ they will receive supporter powers as a thank you for donating. If ex-admins wish to return to admin WITHOUT going through the free apprentice program they must donate $20.00 to be reinstated immediately. That is only for old admins who left on good terms. If they do not want to pay then they can apply for the apprentice program like everyone else which is free. From this day forth we will no longer be charging admins and supporters monthly! We will be switching over to a donations only community. This means that admin is free and is something that must be earned. All current admin and supporters may cancel their monthly subscription effective immediately (you are hereby grandfathered into our new system). Each month we will have a goal set and if that goal is met we will be able to keep the community running as it is today. If the goal is not met we will simply downsize and readjust the goal for future months. This change will mean a change in other areas as well. I will do my best to explain all of these changes but feel free to ask questions following this post. Getting Admin and the new Apprentice Program In order to apply for the admin you must be a forum member for (60) days. Once you have submitted your application it will be reviewed by our Community Advisers. They will have full say over who gets accepted into the "Admin Apprentice Program." The Community Advisers (CA's) will vote on who gets accepted into the program. Not all applicants will be accepted on their first try. Once accepted into the program these admin will be give limited admin powers and will be monitored by the CA's. Once a week the CA group will take a vote on who gets promoted from the program and given full admin access. Once you have full admin you have it for life, unless you break the admin rules and receive (3) strikes. If an applicant during his apprenticeship shows sings of being unfit for admin the CA's can deny the application and remove limited admin. Change in supporter Supporter will no longer be purchased it will simple be given as a "thank you" for supporting the community. Any member, regardless of tenure, who donates $20.00 or more will automatically be given support perks including skins and reserved slots. Goal for December 15th Our monthly goal will be $800.00 a month and the date at which the goal needs to be met is December 15th. You can track the progress of our goal on our donation page. You will notice I have changed the donation page and added a few new pages as well. Take a look and remember to thank those that donate and help to support your community. For all those people who don't get it. 2 Link to comment
