I’m pleased to announce that SVTP will now be offering a Premium Membership upgrade. This has been in the works for the past few months and I think you guys will be happy with it.
These are the added benefits of supporting SVTP by becoming a Premium Member:
- Premium Membership Recognition Under Username
- The Ability to Post Attachments
- 1000 Private Messages
- Expanded Search Results – more than 100 returns
- Access to Private Forums
- Access to Exclusive Vendor Specials and Group Purchases – Available only to Premium Members. One good deal may pay for your membership.
- Expanded Access to the Photo Gallery – 50mb of storage capacity.
- Membership Package – shirt, sticker, membership card, and possibly other materials.
- Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery.
- Access to Future Exclusive SVTP Merchandise
- Access to Future Hospitality Facilities at SVTP Sponsored Events
- No 60 second wait between searches, sending PMs, or posting
- No Google Ads
The list of benefits is subject to change at any time. It is likely that more features will be added in the future as we are currently working on a few. It is priced at $45 per year. All SVTP rules will still apply to Premium Members as they would to any other member. The Premium Membership fee is non-refundable.
The proceeds will be used for the future projects, along with further upgraded servers. I feel this is a much better option than whoring out the site to advertisers like so many other sites do. Also, I don't want to just charge $45 per year for a t-shirt and sticker. My ultimate goal is to carry the SVTP experience onto the road. I'd like to have a trailer setup in a lot of the country's largest events and have a hospitality tent area set up for all the members to BS and get something to eat and drink courtesy of SVTP. I'm also currently researching the possibility of putting on 2 annual SVTP meets (separate East Coast and West Coast meets with the possibility of expanding into Texas). The Premium Membership revenues would be directed towards goals such as that.
LISTEN UP!!! THIS THREAD WILL STAY ON-TOPIC! IF YOU CANT POST CONSTRUCTIVELY AND ON-TOPIC, YOU NEED TO STEP AWAY FROM THE KEYBOARD. THIS THREAD WILL NOT BE MUCKED UP.

And for those of you bitching out and making lame excuses for not buying it, JUST QUIT IT!!!
Say you dont want to pay and NOT that you CAN'T. 45$ is what most of you spend on a halfway decent meal.

For those of us cave people who don't have/can't figure out paypal, can we pay by check? (or in my case, can I pay with salt?-it worked for the Romans!)
You sold me on the "no waiting period between posts", I get the "you must wait xx seconds between posts"message all the time. I'll be signing up within the next few days.
Also when searching it has to be 4 or more letters, so when searching for BBK or MAC or Oil Pump it doesnt work too well and wondering if the search will be more specific as well as more results?
This is per year? Ouch that puts me out. But good luck with it!! If I hear good things about it I might just pony up the money (Poor college kid lol)
I do want a SVTP sticker though
Lightning + 20s + $100+ per tank of gas = Broke College student? Somethings wrong with that equation. So stop polluting the thread about why you are a 'poor' college kid.

what position does a non SVT owner hold on membership? Are the events/cruses/shows for SVT people only? Is it looked down upon, like if I had a Mach 1 to go to an SVT event?
So we get limited seatch results, no attachments, and 60 second delays in posting/searching?
wow..boo to that.
That's what the standard SVTP membership has always been.

We can arrange something. No salt though.

Sorry to offend the "ballers" by being brutally honest on this. Just saying that 45$ is such a small amount and you using lame excuses and saying you CAN't instead of being honest and call it like it is. IF YOU DON'T WANT it, just say it, MODS wont ban you for it. Stop making up sob stories boys.
The best part of that deal is the no wait between searchers. Cant tell ya how many times Ive misspelled something only to have to wait to search again lol. I will be signing up later tonight
all done shirt size XL thank you. i didnt see where to put the size in.
You should have been able to put it in while using Paypal, in the comments field.

We're working on it.

It's automatic, as soon as you pay it takes effect.
