Please explain paid membership levels

Pro 2A · 12-15-2011, 14:28

I posted with this request a few days ago, but didn't get a reply. I'd like to get a paid membership, but can't find where it says what the various levels provide the user.

Take a good look at the GT home page. Specifically the upper right hand corner, just left of Privacy Policy. You might need to contact a moderator about which privileges come with each paid tier.

That page has how to purchase each level, but doesn't explain the benefits of each. What are the differences besides price?

What does a paid membership give the user? Like: Is there the ability to upload more photos? If so, how many? Bigger signatures? Other things?

When you go to the price page, click on the link within the box on the left. It has a description of the different levels. Hope this helps.

ETA: Click on the link within the text then click in the box. My bad.

But that page still doesn't say what each level gets the member. It says Silver is the basic level, Gold is next, then Platnum (above that it says what goodies are in addition to the membership). But there's no mention of any benefits or reasons to pay for the first 3 levels. Not sure why this is so hard. I guess I'll just continue to use the free level since I can't see any reason to pay for membership.

I am new and am interested in this too. Not sure if I should buy membership or not.

Here is what it says about the Silver level when I do that:

"This is the basic paid membership level."

That's it! No info on forum benefits or any reason to pay for this.

Perhaps if there was more info on WHY people should be members and what, if any, benefits it gets them maybe there would be even more members?

With each tier you do get more space for private messages.
Each tier gets progressively more.

With each you get the ability to have a larger than the normal 100x100 avatar.
You get the ability to start or be invited to join in some of the private forums.
There was supposed to be an @GlockTalk.com email address at some point.
Any pop up adds will be gone from your view.

You get to support a site that actually has operational costs.

Thank-you! THAT is the kind of info I was looking for. Having the details of this posted with each level would be good. But since I first posed the question when I was looking into paying for a membership, I have since spent the money I had on a new gun, so I'm broke again. Maybe next time.
