Where else can we find Ion updates on the fly? New developments? Places to eat. Entertainment. The list goes on.
Sure, we have our struggles now and then. Our disagreements. But you've done a great job at keeping the place civil. Keep up the great work.
Thanks jeffster!
I'm intrigued by the idea, but I'm just not sure what the "premium" content is that donors would have access to.
I'm not sure they would get any sort of "Premium" content, other than perhaps not getting any info about donations. This is what Wikipedia does.
It also would add the word "Premium" or whatever you want, and I'll give you an example (this is from dslreports.com).

Only paid members have "Premium Member" listed.
However, I was thinking about it more, what you could do is this: For the regulars who can't afford to donate, keep their username the same colour as any other unpaying member. However, if one donates (perhaps a minimum yearly), they could have an alternate colour.
As it stands now, you have a different colour, as do the mods. So adding a different a colour for paying members might work.
