• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Something that does need to be brought to everyone's attention about these paid membership programs. These are not "get out of jail for free" cards. Paying members are still subject to the rules of this site and are subject to suspensions when warranted. Just because you PAY for a yearly membership does not mean that you are immune to suspensions while you are a paid member. I do doubt this will become an issue, but I feel that it is best to make this clear up front.

I've had several people ask me how they go about paying for these paid membership plans, so I figure this would be the place to post that information.

The easiest method is to use the internal function of this site to handle the transaction. You can get to the proper page by using the User CP link in the menu bar line right above the thread listing (light breen background, white text). Clicking on that link will present you with a page showing a list to the left of the screen with a number of further links. The one you want is the one that says Paid Subscriptions.

Or alternatively, just click on this link here: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/subscriptions.php?

If you would like a step by step description of how to do this process, please see this thread -> http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=124939

I hope this helps sufficiently to get people oriented in this new program.

Thanks.
