Okay, here's the story on Lifetime Supporting Memberships. From now until the end of November, they are $40 a pop. On December 1st, they will rise to $75 a pop.
As of January 1, 2018, Lifetime Memberships will no longer be offered - ever!
Annual memberships will still be offered for $15/year until December 31, 2017. On January 1, 2018, they will rise to $20/year.
For those who do not know, the benefits of a supporting membership are:
1) No ads, ever. On the desktop, on mobile, even on Tapatalk.
2) Cool "Supporting Member" banner under your name.
3) Access to the private Saloon section, where the rules are loosened just a bit.
4) Access to the chat box archives.
5) My perpetual love.
