G5 was on last year's mug. :) Sadly... it's gone now... replaced with the latest promise... the 970.

Happy to toss a few bucks your way, arn, but lemme asses my standing with bills, first. Is there any sort of restriction to time?

you can contribute whenever you'd like... this mug will be on sale for approximately a year. Certainly, take care of your bills first. :)

Quick question:

If we want to contribute but don't want the demi-god status (because we would like to see what level we are at - member, regular, processor, whatever) can we contribute and then just not forward our name?

Well, yes... but then you don't get the benefits of contribution... as the ad-free page and private forums rely on your forum status.

One issue that has come up is that some do not wish to be called "God" or "Goddess" - in which we can choose a non-religious reference... but again, it would stay static, but would not change with post count.

so would we get the much-coveted right to bear avatars without the dreaded
"wait until total post counts" by purchasing said mug?

I sure do want somethin' real purty by my name... and ooooooh. It's frosted! :D

Unfortunately, I've stuck with the post-count related avatar ability.

Despite the abuse problems associated with post-count-related privledges... the original thought behind the avatar issue has been that those who participate in the forums earn an avatar and are "known" to the community.

I think most people enjoy contributor status, however... ;)

Avatars only come with your 500th post.:D

Or by contributing a couple hundred bucks.
