Hi all,
Just catching up on things here and I want to make sure everyone is aware of one of the programs we have in place here to raise funds. We offer Premium membership that come with Perks above the normal free memberships here. Ryan has outlined it all here...

http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?104050-SimplyDiscus-Premium-Memberships

He explains what the program offers you. You basically get expanded forum services and special discounts and giveaways by sponsors. Its different with each sponsor, and you need to ask them what they currently do for the program. I asked the sponsors to do this to help out, and many have agreed, but their participation and what they will do is always subject to change. The Forum Perks we offer however will stay the same unless then software manufacturer makes changes that make it necessary for us to modify what we can give you.

If you become a premium member it is your responsibility to contact the sponsors and check what they offer before you order. They have no way to know if you are a premium member until you tell them your user name and which membership you have.....and will not offer discounts after the sale.


So basically what you get is everything you currently get as a member, plus perks and the knowledge that you are helping support the forum that you come to and enjoy daily.

I want to thank those of you that signed up last year for these memberships... having spoken with some of you I know that you have gotten great value out of the system and I appreciate the contributions you have made to forum.


If you regularly visit the forum and get value out of it, It would be great to have you as a premium member here.. Please consider making that comitment in 2014. I know the economy is not great out there, and that times are hard all over, but I do hope you will consider showing your support of what the forum does for you thru the purchase of a membership.

Again...the details are here. ..http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?104050-SimplyDiscus-Premium-Memberships
and if you have any questions you may pm any moderator on staff here, or me personally.

Thank you,
al

Hello All,
Just a quick bump here to bring this back up to the top and keep everyone aware of the ways they can help the forum and help themselves by getting some serious discounts from some of our sponsors as well as other perks. Please take a moment to consider the Premium Memberships offered on Simply.

Of course if you prefer to, you can use the old fashioned and straightforward donate link here...

http://forum.simplydiscus.com/misc.php?do=donate

Supporting the Forum means supporting your hobby... Think of all you get from SimplyDiscus day after day...whats it worth to you? What has it saved you in headaches and lost fish, whats its brought in terms of sponsors , places to sell your hobby raised stock, advice you have been given. I'm sure if you take a few minutes to think about it, you'll see the value this forum brings to you and the Hobby.

Best Always,
Al

Case example of why you should consider a Premium Membership here...

Lets say you buy a membership as a Homesteader or Gold.. for $50.00 and the sponsors are giving 10% discounts to these groups as many do...

If you buy $500 in fish from them you will have paid the Membership cost right there...anything more you buy is just money in your pocket. Spend $1000 in a year on Discus with our various sponsors and you can save $50 above the cost of the Premium Memberships! Discus are not inexpensive fish , and this can really save you.


Do the math... Its a great way to help the Forum and help yourselves to save some serious jingle on your Discus Keeping !!!
Its really a no-brainer if you plan on making any discus purchases in this upcoming Year.

best always,
Al

Price (Per Year)

$0.00 USD

$25.00 USD

$50.00 USD

$50.00 USD

$100.00 USD....On Sale $75.00 until August 1,2014






So please consider showing your support for SimplyDiscus. You get so much here for free, maybe now is the time to pay it back a little. Compared to how much you spend on your Discus, Is $75.00 too much to pay to show your support of the place you come to for help with your hobby when you need it? If it is,then maybe consider one of our other subscription levels.

I wonder how much money and headaches has this forum saved YOU in your hobby? How much has this forum improved your hobby, and benefited the Hobby for all. I can't answer that for you...But I do hope that you can take a moment and just think about it. Hopefully you will see that Supporting SimplyDiscus is one of the best investments you can make in this Hobby.

Thank you to all that have supported SimplyDiscus over the years, you never had to...but you chose to.

Best wishes all,
Al

HI all,
My thanks go out to all of you that took advantage of the sale and showed your forum support here. The sale is now over, but you can still become a premium member at any time.The details are here....

http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?104050

You can also contribute anytime to the forum using this link.....
http://forum.simplydiscus.com/misc.php?do=donate


Why do this? Because...You get something of value here everyday, that although its not as tangible as a fish that you may buy, or a tank..or a Big Mac, it is just as valuable. You get support for your problems, you get comradery, you get a place to shop for your purchases of Discus and supplies,you get a place to share your photos, ask your questions, and get answers. You even get a place to sell your fish as a hobbyist. It is all given freely here to members. I know you can't "see" it , and it does not physically swim in the tank, but in the long run, supporting this forum is probably the wisest discus related investment you'll make in the hobby.


Give it some thought.

Thank you again to all those that do contribute here, you know who you are, and I do as well. You have my gratitude.

best always,
al

Had a couple of members take advantage of this offer..My thanks to you guys!!:o... Clocks ticking to save money on an existing membership or if you have not signed up for one... theres still time to do so. When you buy a Premium Membership you get all the benefits posted in this thread.. and get to show your thanks and appreciation for all the forum Does for you. Its a win-win all around....so please consider doing so.

I know its not like buying a Discus, or going to a fish show or pet shop, or treating yourself to a new fish tank....Supporting the forum is not tangible like that... and Yes, I know you can probably get by on our free membership and just deal with the ads, and you probably don't need the all the fancy perks and Everyone loves a freebie....I wonder though. Where would the hobby be, if SimplyDiscus was not here? Scary thought huh?
