rhasler Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I've got a feeling Barry is behind this. Anyone got an idea what the story is with "BMT VIP" and "BMT Benefactor"? Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 rhasler I believe that when ya get up to 2,000 posts, ya get to wine and dine with Barry. Then you start getting 25% off of every parts order if ya buy $10,000 worth of parts before Christmas 2011. So hurry and get posting on BMT.Good Luck I hope your the WINNER!mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhasler Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Will do!May have to start ordering parts from him too, maybe then I'd get my parts when I needed 'em! Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Didn't you get the memo........................................Hello David,As you may know, BigMackTrucks.com had to move to a new dedicated server so wehave enough room to grow! This is a really good thing but speed and performancedoesn't come without a large price tag! The new server will cost well over$2000 per year plus bandwidth usage. That is a large amount for our host,Watt's Truck Center to absorb so some of our members suggested that we set up aVIP Membership option so that those that wish to help out can do so! We alsoset up a Benefactor group for those who wish to make a $150 lifetime donation tothe forums! VIP Memberships cost just $25 per year and will also help us outgreatly! Donating members will be upgraded to special membership groups andwill have access to the new VIP Lounge private forum! I don't know what's goingto go on in there but the only rule is what happens in the VIP Lounge, stays inthe VIP Lounge! Donating members also receive extra upload space forattachments and gallery images!We also have an option for those that would like to advertise on the forums. Advertisers will receive a rotating banner ad at the top of every forum page fora full year for just $200. We only allow up to 6 advertisers at once to providefor maximum exposure. The only requirement is that you are advertising truckrelated products or service. Advertising fee's will also help fund our newserver!If you would like more information...please visit this link:http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?/topic/20679-subscribe-to-bmt/Again, we appreciate any and all support but keep in mind that donating to BMTis completely optional! We know times are tough and not everyone has the extramoney available to donate. We will never charge a fee to use the forums oraccess Mack Truck Information! We just want to offer everyone a chance tosupport something that they enjoy! All donations will be used for current andfuture server costs!Thanks!BarryBMT Admin-------------------------------------BigMackTrucks.com Statistics:-------------------------------------Registered Users: 7121Total Posts: 82795Busiest Time: 344 users were online on Feb 06 2011 09:24 PM-------------------------------------Handy Links-------------------------------------Community Address: http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.phpLog In: http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?app=core&module=global§ion=loginLost Password Recovery: http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?app=core&module=global§ion=lostpassMake a donation: http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?/subscriptions/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Will do!May have to start ordering parts from him too, maybe then I'd get my parts when I needed 'em!Hey now........that's asking alittle too much if ya want parts on time. I don't know of anyone getting that luxury. I was also thinking a strength test to go along with all that with anyones parts today, since they are all Made in $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.01mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhasler Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 No sir, I did not get the memo. Thought maybe it had to do with the MH/Mack Museum situation. Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Found the links but they do not work on this computer for me. Quite possibly the computer that is old I'm using. I'll try another tomorrow.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Barry Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 The emails are sending...the server only sends so many per day. We went ahead an started the VIP packages to help generate some funding for the new server...Watt's ponied up for it so far, but I really hated dropping that big bill on them! So I created a VIP Lounge and set some VIP packages up as you guys suggested...just to help offset the cost of this new technology! Plus VIP's get extra upload space for attachments and stuff! I'm also going to do a few contests to give away a few VIP Memberships so everyone has a chance to get on one regardless of finances.If you don't use Payapl, just PM me and we can either have you mail a check/money order or I can take credit card over the phone. I might even be able to ad a slot to our B-Model store for donations so you can use your charge card...Again...this is completely optional! We will NEVER ask for money to access BMT! It will always be free with or without donations! That is my promise!!We still haven't heard anything about the MH/Museum deal! Can't seem to get a hold of the trucks owner!

Just make sure your user name is in the envelope somewhere so I know who to upgrade.Here is the mailing address just in case you can't access the donation page for some reason:BMT VIP Membershipc/o Watt's Truck CenterPo Box 707New Alexandria, PA 15670USABe sure to include your BMT username!
