    Ok maybe "reward" was wrong word to use, They're more of bonuses. Its not about been rewarded or buying things its just about little bonuses for supporters. Its pretty much standard on all forums/sites and would make a cool addition to NB to have more PM space (50 is just waaaay too low imho) or ability to change title, name color etc etc etc.

    Also this is the feedback forum so I gave feedback/suggestion, If you don't like it then its your problem not mine.

    Fair comment

    My experiences of other forums that I have been involved with -

    Having increased the limit on PMs to 100, people then wanted 200. This had to be paid for with the service providers we were using
    I would add that the forum involved had got so big that we could no longer effectively use "free" platform software, so it had to be paid for

    I think that the worst thing one forum ever got involved with was T-Shirts/Polo shirts with the logo printed and/or embroidered on them. Loads of interest and we sold 3

    Before I put my foot in it, what "Bonuses" you would suggest for supporters? Please remember that some-one has to administer all this and that Ashley, the site owner, only has a couple of part time Moderators to help him.

    Know what I like about this site ?

    Apart from the mods we are all the same but still unique and that the features it has are already free. We have a nice, calm and essentially self moderating forum based on mutual respect. Allowing people to donate to get special privileges or elevate status isnt something. I'd like to see.

    Yes I suppose I'd like more pm space but I dont think its so bad at the moment.

    You don't have to delete any of your PM, you can archive them to a separate folder if you want to keep them - I believe the folder
    would be on your own pc and would not clutter up the server NB uses - I eat walkers deep ridged crisps PROBLEM SOLVED
