Gold Membership Subscription Now Available

[Matthew_McNally]

As you will have noticed, the club has being growing incredibly. :D

We would like to thank you for your participation over the last year or so - and we look forward to your continued participation.

As part of our growth and expansion, I am very excited to announce the launch of our paid subscription service - Gold Membership.

Gold Members will be our premium subscribers, and will be given preferential access to the club.

A gold membership subscription costs $50 per annum, and you can activate your subscription here

In return for this subscription, Gold Members will recieve;

Gold Member Icon

This button, and an ID will be displayed under your name, so you stand out on the forums as a major site supporter.

Membership Pack

You will receive the following in the post, shortly after you subscribe.

1 x membership card

1 x Exclusive LOC Gold Member sticker (available only to Gold Members)

1 x long LOC sticker

2 x LOC credit card sized stickers

The stickers are all static, self cling, and can be easily affixed to your windows without any sort of adhesive

Some pics :D

Access to our Gold Members forums

These forums will be Gold Member only access, and we will be having some exclusive fun in there <_<

Garage Access

Gold Members will be able to actively maintain their cars in their Garage.

The Garage is a forum add-in that allows you to showcase your car. You can show photographs, list your mods. You even have your own guestbook, so people can comment on your car.

Your garage can be viewed by all members.

Gallery

Gold Members have a 10 megabyte gallery, with unlimited albums.

Ordinary members may only have 1 meg of storage in one album.

Multiple gallery albums, coupled with the garage makes for excellent sigs, on LOC and any other forums you use.

Arcade

We have just installed an online arcade with (currently) 15 games to play.

Gold Members get unlimited plays, every day.

Ordinary members may only play once a day.

An Increased PM Mailbox

Gold Members may store 5000 PM's in their mailbox, before having to delete.

They may also attach files to their PM's.

Ordinary members may only store 50 PM's, and may not attach files.

Custom Titles

A custom title is a phrase (such as the 370HSSV-0773H below my avatar).

Gold Members may request their own custom titles.

Ordinary Members are very rarely permitted custom titles

A Warm, Satisfying Glow

Last, but by no means least, Gold Members can be assured that their subscriptions are helping keep the club going, by paying our ever increasing server costs, etc.

You can activate your subscription online by clicking here.

Two payment methods are available, and if you pay by Paypal, your subscription can be activated immediately.

$50 is a little steep for me at the moment :(

[SW03ES]

I want the window sticker. A few days ago I could buy it for $9, what happened to that? I was gonna try to order one today.

its 50 dollars for a whole YEAR..........this site is free, just think of how much money the LOC has saved you over the years (especially our die hard members,that are on here day in and day out).

i know for me it has saved me hundreds of dollars in repair and maintence, by learing more about working on my car and doing things myself.....and now i'm able to pass my knowledge, and experience of the LS down to new members, it a win win situation

also saved me time and headache from finding part #'s and sources, for the things i needed

i'm not pressing anyone to pay up,(and if you can't afford it, no problem) i'm just stating my reason for signing up for Gold, it was a no brainer to me.....

thats $4 a month.

surely we give everyone $4 worth of value a month?

All the subs go to keeping the club running - server costs alone on a site this busy are horrific

Absolutely! :D I've had 3 check engine lights between my two Lexus. That's $300 at the dealer, but because of the ES moderators I found out about AutoZone's free code reading, so that's atleast $300 I can send back to the club. Also, I've met tons of great people and great moderators. Everyone here has helped me in many ways, so I was happy to pay up for goldie status. And, I want that cool membership card!! B) lol I'll donate whatever I can to help keep this wonderful site going! ;)

Hey Matthew,

Is this for the remainder of the year only.........OR

1 year from signup date............OR

Maybe the best: include the remainder of this year and 2005 as incentive :D

[Matthew_McNally]

the subscription is for one whole year from the date you join.

So if you go and signup now your membership will last until 21 October 2005.

Maybe the best:  include the remainder of this year and 2005 as incentive  :D
