Power+

I'd purchase if I had any money to spare.

Keep Power the same. +10 is a ton of rep and can be abused easily.

This idea is semi decent. But I kinda agree with you
by the requirements your making us pay an additional
$25 on top of the already $30 that we have/ had to
pay for the other upgrades.

Upgrades are an option. I am not making you or anyone else do a goddamn thing. This has been requested by members so much is why I am thinking about doing this. I am not doing this for me. Rofl.
 
I think this is a great idea Philly. I wouldn't mind seeing this implemented soon.

Exactly. I think +/- 10 is enough let alone the ability to +/- 15.

If Power+ is implemented, then the amount of rep to given (+/-) is as follows:
Donator: +1 and neutral only
Onyx: +/- 3 and neutral
Power: +/- 5 and neutral
Power+: +/- 10 and neutral

That may seem pointless, because it is, very pointless in fact. Why take away one's powers that they've paid for and limit them? Then again, why give members such ridiculous powers as Power+ will give them. I can easily see the advantages of Power+ being abused. Upgrades should stay how they are. I understand that the upgrades we have now may not reach a members complete needs, but what happens when they get Power+? Once they get it, they're going to be bored and want to work for something else. You said it yourself, this would be the very last upgrade available to use as members. What's going to happen when members get bored of Power+?

Than they will be fucked. Either way though its not up to me I am completely letting the community decide on this one. Friday I will make the final decision based on the poll votes. There isn't anything in power+ that is too much power I don't see why you think there is...
 
Really don't think four upgrade groups is necessary. I would say just upgrade your current most prestigious group instead of just adding other groups with better permissions. Just improve the current power and add better permissions to justify it as the best upgrade group.

If you really want to monetize it that badly though, you could always just make the upgrade groups yearly subscriptions instead of lifetime, that way is definitely better than having ANOTHER upgrade group, in my opinion.

That isn't a bad idea. Add more advantages to power and either raise the price or make it yearly. There is a thread in the private section where alot of members want another group though, which is the only reason I made this is to see what everyone though. I don't even want 4 upgrade groups. i would prefer only two myself.
 
I actually like this idea, but you already have to many different upgrades. I say remove donator and just have Onyx, Power, Power +

Its your money and site so put the price at whatever you feel is right and if it should be BIN then do it. I like the idea of changing the color of your name :D

Yeah two is the perfect amount in my opinion. I'm not sure how you would do it now but reverting to two and making them yearly subscriptions would work much better, especially if you keep investing in decent features. More people with yearly subscriptions results in more income than you would get from four separate groups.

I'm not sure if there's an automatic system for this, but you could have the renewal price cheaper than the actual price. For example, $20 for one upgrade and then $10 a year to renew instead of another $20. I know there is a subscription plugin (Pirata's), but I'm not sure you can change the renewal price.

Omg its the legendary FK user nice to meet you please be active again I would like to get to know you.
 
I don't think another upgrade is needed right now.. 3 is enough in my opinion.
But if you do go on making another one, I suggest making the group a bit more rare and keep the requirements high.
As for the yearly price, I suggest making only one group, for example power yearly only.
 
Just make it happen Philly regardless of what anyone thinks. If they don't like it, they don't need to upgrade. Either way if the money from this is going towards the site this is a good idea.
 
This sounds awesome but I wont be upgrading thanks very much

He already makes enough to support the site.

We don't need kids running around giving -15 rep. Holy shit, I think 5 should have been the maximum.
 
Sorry if this isn't the right post to be posted in the right section. But why does this forum have soo much support and of course its money. I've seen many people who joined some special groups in this forum and it doesn't become for free aswell. I find it pretty un-fair in my opinion. I'd rather be just a staff or moderator for once though..:/

Damn you got some sick ideas here. I think i figured out what I am going to so...

Do Onyx, and power only, and put anyone in the donators group into onyx free, than add some new features to power, and onyx, than make onyx, and power a yearly subscription from this point on, and when anyone with it currently will get it forever free as it was when they bought it to be fair. So yearly would only be for the people that have not gotten it yet. Just a thought...
 
Nice idea Philly you should make this happen already but it's up to you.

Yes, Philly please do this. I like this much better, but do donators get to keep their award, showing that they donated?
 
If you're paying that much money for 4 different upgrades you should have mad benefits like custom usercolor (with some restricted and all that). 20 positive or negative rep per user is a bit ridiculous though, I think 15 is more than enough.
