Loyalty - Saxperience

Just a thought, maybe free stickers or something for achieving x amount of posts or being an active member for x amount of time, no real rewards on Sax-p for being active, posting and sharing knowledge like. Probably being a bit hopeful but worth suggesting tbh

I think if free stickers were up for grabs when you reach 2000 posts or whatever, it would bring on aloott of spam =S

JimoVTR · 12th June 2008, 09:25

its already too much of a spam fest here, me included in that.

Just buy premium

Stickers are for sale in the shop, they help fund the site.

You get free stickers when you become premium.

Getting stickers at x number of posts would not only turn every member into Adsayer, but would cost the EARTH!

JimoVTR · 12th June 2008, 10:52

when you reach 50k yeah perhaps

MikeCracknell · 12th June 2008, 11:32

No not at all, 50k = millions of crap everywhere!

Luke · 12th June 2008, 12:03

Pointless tbh.

Well some of us don't come on this site to post nonsense all day long like Tupps and adsayer, some of us do actually try to help out as much as possible and share knowledge, that's what the site is for but there is no reward for it that's all I'm saying. I'm not buying a Premium Membership, what's the point? that's exactly the opposite of what I'm trying to get at, this site rakes in plenty of cash and I know for a fact it does not cost a lot to run as I work with websites and coding. Thank you.

I know there are some people that don't come on here to spam the hell out the place. I am not saying that, but with the numbers of members there are....

If you were running a website and had to send out dozens of stickers that are not free to make every time someone hit x numbers of posts, on a website this size, you'd be bankrupt in no time.

You get what you pay for, without this place, I wouldn't have half the fun i have now - it's a social gem offline as well as online, and paying £10 a year is nothing to me for the friendship, social events and laughs I get back in return.

And to be honest, I am FAR from the only person that thinks this too.

paying membership into a club allows it to run and continue running.
i even paid up my subs on ssc for the 2 years when i didnt have a saxo, the club gave me way more than the cost of membership in terms of meeting people hints and tips etc etc

just remember a car club isnt just the website

Ryan^p · 13th June 2008, 14:57

people need to realise the forum isnt the club.

The club cost money to run, how do you raise that? through the forum.

youve openly admitted at being tight.

immense · 13th June 2008, 15:34

Tight when it comes to paying out on things that don't need to be paid out on yes. Mike I did mention aswell about being an active member of Sax-p for x amount of time, obviously the posts one would be more touchy because it would encourage spam. Anyway stuff it, seems to have been a bad suggestion so leave it at that.

MikeCracknell · 13th June 2008, 15:38

Not a bad suggestion, but I can see from your side too, but look at the number of spamlicious people on here
