    Patron membership updates!

    We are trying to amp up the patrons on this forum so we have updated the usergroups and added some stuff to the forum. We are doing this so we can provide new and exciting things to the forum, that as a whole we can obtain, Becoming a patron is helpful in two ways it takes a load off of Matt it worrying about server costs and maintenance for the site. Every year we have to buy a new VB license, VB profile, sign a server contract (with monthly payments) and download updates with some patch's costing a few bucks if they are substantial. We also would like to get some new themes going and some features like arcade room and maybe some others as we are talking to the patrons right now getting ideas.

    Things we have added

    -Patrons get 5000 pm's
    -Regular members get 50
    -Patrons maximum signature size has been upped to 500x150 with a 150 maximum character text with the sig, also allowing GIF signatures to be added but must be work safe.
    -Regular member remain unchanged.
    -patrons are allowed profile pictures up to 1080x720
    -Regular members no profile pictures
    -Patrons are allowed a 150x150 avatar
    -Regular members are allowed 50x50
    -Patrons can now fully moderate their own posts this means everything, Full delete, full edit, move..... ect
    -Regular members have no permissions on moderation
    -Patrons will have their birthdays announced on the front page above cotm stating January 2011
    -Regular members no TGC staff announcement
    - Added a section to the forum called "Patrons lounge" this is visible to all user groups but only Admins, Mods, Designers, Server tech's and Patrons can post.

    some of you may feel that these changes might be unfair, but remember patrons are what keep us going and get the forum new things, we are not here to make a profit on anyone every dollar we receive goes right back into the site.

    So thank you to our current Patrons for you committed support to TGC and we hope to see some more people join in on supporting something you have learned to call home.

    Thanks,
    the TGC staff
