    Well, back on the old forum was an option is subscribe. This allowed you also to access more fiction. That option is of course still there...

    I'll look into maybe putting a simple little subscribe option here maybe... But to honest not sure what the incentive would be for people to take it...
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Yeah that was what I was thinking, there's isn't really much that could be offered in exchange for a donation on this forum, because Zombie Flesh Eater status affords you any such bells & whistles...hmmm.

    I think the subscription status works best for fiction really...

    Are we talking about on the old forum (for Fiction)? If so, I'm afraid it can only accept the cards PayPal accepts... Does that answer your question?

    What about letting us write or own captions?

    The moderators have the option (e.g MinionZombie = King of the Undead)
    so couldn't we change ours?

    There could be the option in the settings to keep it as it is (Dependant on rating) but you could let us change it to our own preference.

    P.S: This is free of course.

    But then you're just making the perks of being a Mod become mainstream, once the peasants get into the box of tricks.

    Let them eat cake, eh?

    No, didn't you know? Enough is never enough. Bells & whistles are fun, our duties carry with them liabilities and ethics and ra ra ra.

    members who have gained ZFE (zombie flesh eater) status can change their own title.
