Q: We all donate at different times of the year will there be a reminder sent to members if their club membership is going to expire?
That would be great, Gaz!At this point no, its really upon the member to remember when they donated.
However I do have plans to put a better program in place to manage the members.
Just a couple of new things,
I am sure you can now see it will not be supporter member it just didn't have a ring to it, it will now be known as MJJC Club Member this group will form part of a wide variety of benefits in MJJC which will be announced as we go.
In answer to Petrose, I did have a box that you can add your amount however due to the way in which the club will be set up there will be a minimum charge to become a part of this, the trouble with having an empty field people who are not a part of the community who wanted club or at the time donator status were giving just one dollar so when it was donations yes that was fine but now its a club with lots of benefits I have set a minimum of $10, if you come across this problem in the future contact me directly and we can do something by me adding it directly to the total.
Anyway guys thank you all so much for your support in this, yes its hard when things are changing but I have to plan for the future and now its without Michael things will inevitably change but I assure yo all this is not about making money its about getting our bills pay'd, my situation I have absolutely no problem giving my free time here for developing organising teams etc but I simply can not carry it financially which I hope you all understand.
Thanks again guys.
Okay.There will be no more seperate groups just Proud member and MJJC club Member for those who support the Board.
All Proud members will have the same access and MJJC club members will have additional perks once everything is in place.
You havent lost access to anything
Okay.
What about those who have been here for two years or longer with more than 200 posts and are apart of MJJC Staff...?
Maybe soon they'll be a new list compiled of the new 'groups' new badges and what each mean and what each gets.

MJfam if you appreciate what we do here and want to insure we are able to continue please HELP support MJJC.
We are falling behind on our quota to pay the bills. Please give generously if you can or whatever you can is much appreciated. This is neccessary to pay for server, all the added features and new content for you to enjoy.
Guys, where this status bar can be seen..? I couldn't find....as you can see the bar is on 31% and we are almost 4 months into the year..
Oh, thanks! Found it now.It's on top of the main forum page. Above the chat window.
We have 75% of the donate goal now.
Of course you can ask. Its a reasonable question. I hope I can explain it to your satisfaction. No one is asking for more. The last request above was in August when MJJC was behind and was not at 101%, which btw just pays till end of this year. Server/database Fees are payed ahead. So there is just enough to break even at end of yr. Donations are always ongoing because MJJC doesn't alway reach the quota for each month or quarter. Some months donations come up very short, some a little more. Sadly Right now donations are very sparse. btw the 1% = only $13 to go toward the next quarter. There were also other expenses for upgrades etc. that came out of the owners pocket, not even asked for. Please believe me when I say: There is no profit being made here by anyone. Just a lot of love/time/work/effort put into MJJC by the owner and staff all for the love of Michael, his fanbase and to carry on his legacy... I hope that helpsCan I ask why you are asking for more money when the goal bar clearly states that your site is now at 101% meaning you have already reached the target for this year?
