You may have noticed some changes to the membership donation link. The decision has been made to change membership to a monthly recurring subscription. This was the original intention of the membership structure but was put on hold in the beginning to establish credibility. After 14 months I think we've done that. It will also make things very convenient for the many of you who have donated several times over (and sometimes unexpectedly been expired without notice). This will no longer be an issue as the account will simply be deactivated upon the subscription cancellation.
It's understood that this change is a price increase as well as now requiring a Paypal account to manage the subscription. The potential for an overall reduction in TOTAL active members at any given point is a benefit and part of the reason this change was enacted. It potentially reduces the total number of members adding value (and reducing wait times) for existing members as well as making the "behind the scenes" management process much easier reducing the number of expired memberships that slip through the cracks adding to member wait times.
Any members that donated prior to this change will keep their original expiration date based on the date and level at which they donated. For example if you donated $25 on August 15th 2010 you will keep your membership as is until August 15, 2011 and then select from whatever membership options are available at the time.
I intend to implement a $25 option allowing for a 6 month membership duration prior to Alterac Valley weekend once I get the code for it worked out.
Any questions about memberships should be directed to me either via the forums or in Ventrilo directly. The forum discussion can be found here http://www.queueq.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=985 or I can be reached directly for inquiries at qqpremades@gmail.com
