VIPs/contributors

For those that contribute monetarily to help animeb, wondering if they could get a gold star by their name or be in special vip/contributors group to separate them from the more mundane members

Ah, ori has been paying, yet he never requested such thing . Isn't it better when you contribute and dont brag about it though ?(you'll feel satisified about helping)

Perhaps, but then he has colors in his name meh... perhaps it is a selfish idea.

Well, i dont have a problem with it, there are people that seem to need some acknowledgment in order to feel motivated/better. So, this could be implemented, sure. This would just mean the creation of a new usergroup, not a hassle to get it set up.

What about those who have contributed but didn't pay?

People DO contribute in other ways.

I don't want anything, selo ><

I just wanted to help in another way, was all. Style gave me that way, and I'm glad to be of some service.

bleh. nah, I don't see why we need to go to the trouble. You're respected for your contributions, don't need to brag about 'em or fish for compliments and such all the time...

Besides, things like special usergroups would do... what? Give you coloured names? Got that in the plaza. Give you access to special forums? Got none of those here, and those that do have requirements to access are not going to be decided upon how much money you shovel at Style If it's just to brag or differentiate people... feck off and go and post on SA

I honestly see no upside to this suggestion >.<

I agree with hinarei. Giving special thingies next to a user's profile who are contributors is meaningless if they're not treated decently.

The thread is about honoring special contributors.

I believe in a meaningful way of honoring special contributors, and treating them decently is one such way.

So yeah, it has everything to do with this thread.

Yep, thats what i said in the first place, but i mean, if some people want, its not a hassle to implement . Many places have that sort of thing, where a user has some sort of flag/icon besides their name "contributor", especially in those open source projects where well, they dont make any money for their project and people donate
