You now have the opportunity to remove the ads on this forum while speeding up forum loading times, and gain additional space for uploading attachments and storing private messages by becoming a Subscriber for as low as 0.83 € per month! :)

First thing first, and let me be clear should anyone be concerned: This forum and all the basic functionality will ALWAYS remain free to use! There will be no A or B team: On Magle International Music Forums all members are part of the A-team and treated equally.

What you do get by becoming a Subscriber, however, is some additional benefits and functionality, such as increased storage space and the removal of the ads. Primarily things that directly or indirectly represent a cost to me (such as hard disk space, bandwidth, etc.), but by becoming a subscriber you will offset that cost and help support the continued operation of this forum at the same time.

You can become a Subscriber by going to the Paid Subscriptions page in the User Control Panel. There you will find two types of subscriptions with the following benefits:

Subscribers:
• Do not see ads on the forum *
• Get faster loading times **
• Can store up to 2500 Private Messages
• Can upload 250 MB of attachments in the forums in total (all uploaded attachments combined)
• Can also upload 150 MB of pictures in the galleries (for 400 MB uploads in total)
• Custom Avatar Maximum File Size = 75KB
• Can use signatures
• Can Upload Animated Avatars
• Get access to the Subscribers Support Forum
• Get access to post new threads in the Other Announcements & Promotion forum.
• Can start up to 6 threads within every 14 days in each of the Member's Music & Websites forums

Subscribers+ Extra Space:

• Do not see ads on the forum *
• Get faster Loading times **
• Can store up to 7500 Private Messages
• Can upload 1 GB (1024 Megabytes) of attachments in the forums in total (all uploaded attachments combined)
• Can also upload 500 MB of pictures in the galleries (for 1.5 GB uploads in total)
• Custom Avatar Maximum File Size = 75KB
• Can use signatures
• Can Upload Animated Avatars
• Get access to the Subscribers Support Forum
• Get access to post new threads in the Other Announcements & Promotion forum.
• Can start up to 6 threads within every 14 days in each of the Member's Music & Websites Forums

* = All ads will be removed with the exception of one discreet ad on the front page (main index). You will see no ads in the individual forums or threads or the gallery.
** = Loading times will be faster due to lower server load, fewer data to transmit and not having to contact and wait for an external ad-provider. The speed increase you will get depends among other factors on your computer and internet connection and will range from just barely to clearly noticeable. It will also vary for each page you view, but it will be there.


Payment is done through PayPal (PayPal accepts all major credit cards as well as bank transfers) and the pricing is as follows:
(€ = Euro)

Subscribers membership fees:
1 month = 2.99 €
6 months = 5.99 € (0.99 € per month)
1 year = 9.99 € (0.83 € per month)

Subscribers Plus Extra Space membership fees:
1 month = N/A
6 months = 10.99 € (1.83 € per month)
1 year = 17.99 € (1.49 € per month)

Additional info:
• If you at some point decide to cancel your subscription any uploaded files exceeding your quota will not be deleted for at least 3 months after the subscription expires, and - though no guarantees are made - most likely never (unless you want them to).
• Subscribers will be listed on the User Group List (but your subscription will not be displayed in your profile or posts).

If you have any questions please let me know :)

Best regards,
Frederik

No problem C5 :) This is simply an option for those who wish to be free from ads and/or would like more storage space and a few other benefits.

I have been pondering the best pricing for this new subscription model and decided to lower the prices significantly for the longer subscriptions (6 and 12 months) to make it very attractively priced. For example the 1 year standard subscription has now been almost cut in half from 18.99€ to 9.99€ which is 0.83€ per month - Quite a bargain! :)
