Help Support This Site!

[Admin]

As you all know, this site has grown and grown in recent months and is now one of the busiest, if not THE busiest DJ forum in the UK, with more than 260 registered members visiting the forum in the last month alone (and this doesn’t include the many hundreds of guests visiting and that December is a quiet month for the forum!). We now have more regular contributors than ever before, and this is growing on more or less a daily basis! In fact we have almost doubled in size in the last 6 months!!!!!

As you also know, due to its popularity we have recently had to move to a dedicated server and update the forum, as the old server and forum could not cope with the demand! We also want to make a lot of improvements / additions to the site which will mean almost a complete rebuild of the site, but will hopefully add plenty more features that will be of interest and assistance to all of you….. but this is going to cost a lot of money to set up.

I know that a lot of you have found this site extremely helpful from time to time – not to mention had some fun along the way! So, we have decided to ask if any of you would be prepared to contribute towards the cost of all of this in order to help the site to continue to develop and remain the great resource for DJs that it has become. The way you can do this is by joining the ‘MDD Supporters Club’ at a cost of £1 per month payable automatically through PayPal…. Which hopefully no-one will find too taxing on their budget! This is a VOLUNTARY scheme open to any registered member – if you don’t sign up, you will still be able to enjoy the forum as you do now, but as a ‘Thank-you’ to those of you who do, you will have access to an additional private forum which will only be open and viewable by MDD Supporters, plus your PM allowance will be increased to 200 rather than the current allowance of 50.

Also, MDD Supporters qualify for discounts on upgraded listings in the MDD Directory (http://www.forum.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/showthread.php?22156-PRICES-Mobile-Disco-Directory-Listings).

Currently, all the benefits for MDD Supporters are as follows: -


Access to "MDD Supporters Area" forum
Private Messages quota increased from 50 to 200 messages
Removal of all banner ads throughout the directory and forum
Relaxation of 100 post / 3 months membership requirement for selling items
Allowed avatar size increased from 80x80px to 150x150px
Allowed signature pic size increased from 500x60px to 500x120px
Discounts on "Enhanced" and "Premium" listing upgrades in MDD Directory
1 free additional postcode area for you at www.needadisco.com for as long as you are an MDD Supporter


We would like to stress that this is NOT a way of lining our own pockets, just a way of raising a bit of money which will go towards the costs involved in re-doing the site and maintaining it, as these costs are now rising beyond the level that we can contribute easily out of our own pockets.

To become an MDD supporter:-


Go to the subscriptions page of your profile (here (http://www.forum.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/payments.php))
In the "MDD Supporter" section, click on the arrow next to the ‘Cost’ box and choose the only option there (1 Month - £1.00)* and click ‘Order’
Click on the [Order Using Paypal] button on the next screen, and complete the subscription process at PayPal
If you cannot immediately access the "MDD Supporters area (http://www.forum.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?96-MDD-Supporters-area)" (listed near the bottom of the forum main page (http://www.forum.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/forum.php#forum96)), please contact site admin, so that we can look in to it and re-set your permissions manually.

*please note that this is a rolling subscription and that once you have set this up, £1.00 will be taken every month from your Paypal account, unless you cancel your subscription.

Once you have done this, follow the on-screen instructions to set up fully.

Thanks in advance to anyone who signs up – we hope that quite a few of you will feel that this site is worth supporting!

NB PayPal is very much our preferred method, as the forum system is set up to sort the permissions automatically, but if there are any members who would like to sign up who REALLY don't want to use PayPal, contact a site admin to get details and you can send us a cheque for an annual subscription of £12 and the admin can then be done manually. Thanks!

Hi Guys

Can't I just send you £12, ie subscriptions to last a year.

I don't have Paypal and would simply prefer a one-off payment

Mossy

[Corabar Entertainment]

UG! We were dreading anyone asking that.... trust you Mossy!

The problem with that is that we will have to have yet another administration list with dates subscriptions paid and the date they expire, etc ........ leave it with me and I'll have words to see if something can be sorted on that one.

EDIT: YES I CAN!!!!!

EDIT EDIT: PAYED :D

[Mossy]

Sorry I just assumed that a one-off payment of £12 would be EASIER to administrate and it would get you the funds faster to do the development.

I will pop down to the city centre tonight and catch a pigeon with a view to training he or she (I never know how to tell with a pigeon), up to fly down to you once a month with a £1 coin strapped to his or her leg

[Mossy]

Just post a pound NOTE to them ;)

Ha ha would love to, but we don't have £1 notes in England, funnily enough though the last time I was given a Scottish £1 note and paid for something down here with it they tried to give me change for a £5 (because that's our lowest note)

The pigeon idea is shaping up well, I have found my balaclava and some false registration plates for my car, now all I need is a blow up pigeon for bait

Mossy

[Jiggles]

Ill send you one so long as you pay back the £1 via Pay pal :D:D

OK, I have paid, but I would rather it was a once of year thing for £12 which is good value alone, I don't yet have my Disco equipment ready but for the startup and buying advice guides alone it's worth it.

Any chance you could do a simple direct debit, sorry I'd love to but I don't do plastic and that's the only way you get a paypal account. http://planetsmilies.net/sad-smiley-8171.gif

PayPal also works through bank transfers. I used to use my card but now it just does bank transfers for me.

[Corabar Entertainment]

Just to update this thread... the benefits of now being an MDD Supporter include:-

Use of a private forum where you can discuss things that you may not want appearing on a public forum

Increased Private Message capacity (200 instead of 50)

Optional free entry into a periodic lottery to have a new logo designed for you, or your old one re-vamped free of charge by Shaun Frame (EliteDJ) - see here (http://www.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=5536&highlight=logo) for further details

Banner free browsing of the forum

Larger profile avatars

Larger signature images

Relaxation of selling rules

Discounts on "Enhanced" and "Premium" listing upgrades in MDD Directory

..... all for £1 a month, which goes towards the costs of keeping this Site running and the costs that will be involved in the upgrade of the Site and the new features that we hope to add in the future..... BARGAIN! :p :D

Anyone wanting to sign up to become an MDD Supporter can do so by PayPal through their User CP (see the first post in this thread for detailed instructions) or (although PayPal is very much our preferred method as the forum system is set up to sort the permissions automatically) you can contact Shaun or Marc to get a postal address to send us cheque for an annual subscription of £12.

Once again, a HUGE big "Thanks!" to all those who have already subscribed.

Agree with many, I have learnt a lot from this site and visit almost every day, so it's high time I became a proper supporter!

Thank you and I hate to keep repeating myself, but it is much appreciated!

[Shaun]

Just a little 'bump' to this topic.

All support is greatly appreciated. See you on 'the other side' :)

[JAMdisco]

I just recently joined, I too have learnt a lot from here (especially how to spend money lol) so I thought I'd better give something back. Keep it up guys (and girls) it's a great forum.

[daz226]

ok i have re done the support for some daft reason it was stopped admins look for a subcription from me but from pay pal using my wifes name ros burns .....confusing i know but there you go it now done;)

Just about time I gave this a gentle nudge again. Any contributions are always greatly received.

[DazzyD]

And to bump the thread and show my support, I've finally gotten round to giving you my first pound!

[Penfold42]

Thanks and well done.....:)

[DazzyD]

Thanks Tone! It's took me long enough!

[Charlie Brown]

Yeah I agree. We all use this forum a lot and I think those who don't give a pound a month are a tad rude!

This forum has certainly made the "disco" I am today....I think that's worth a couple of quid. ;)

[Shaun]

I think those who don't give a pound a month are a tad rude!

;)

I wouldn't go that far. The forum is and always will be a free resourse for the DJ community. Whilst every penny that comes in from supporters goes right back into the site, it's hardly fair to label people rude if they choose not to support the forum. :)

[Marc J]

:D :D :p

[Shaun]

It must have been when I said all proceeds go directly to the 'get-the-admins-drunk-party-fund' :ph34r:

How good would that be? :D

[DJMaxG]

Yeah I agree. We all use this forum a lot and I think those who don't give a pound a month are a tad rude!

There are other forums out there as we all know, I do admire the layout and easy navigation of this site though.

Certain Members appear more frequently than others, and some make a rare appearence, or are totally silent.

Some Members have a Sponsored Listing, Banners etc, and could be paying (for example £50 per year) anyway.

But Yes, it it nice to support by paying £1.00 per month
and be able to choose your own personal description :D

[Charlie Brown]

Yeah, I really believe everyone who uses it on a regular basis, should donate to the running of it.

When I spent some time with Darren, I was amazed at the amount of time and work Shaun and him put into it. The site would be non existent without their commitment....it's not exactly cheap to run either!

I'm guessing something like £30 per year for a dedicated server.

Is Shaun local to Reading? (I haven't memorised his location)

EDIT : Oh Fife, nowhere near. Scotland :eek:

[Vectis]

I'm guessing something like £30 per year for a dedicated server.

:rofl:

[Charlie Brown]

No, Shaun is in Scotland!

If I remember correctly it was a LOT more than £30 a year, over quadruple that. That's irrelevant Max, it costs a lot of time/money/effort......

Not just Shaun and Darren but everyone involved.

[Marc J]

I'm guessing something like £30 per year for a dedicated server.

I think you are getting years confused with months!

[Charlie Brown]

No...I changed Max's posts, so I had to change mine too....:sofa:

[DJMaxG]

I think you are getting years confused with months!

:approve: Totally - I wrote 'per month' and Charlie edited it to say 'per year'



No...I changed Max's posts, so I had to change mine too....:sofa:

For what reason :eek:

I put an amount per a year and you then changed it, THEN told me that it was a lot more.

Of course it's a lot more if you change my own speech! :attn:

[Tom]

Depends who you know. ;) but I guess that's not really helping things. lol.

[Charlie Brown]

Sorry Max...it was because you said it cost the forum £30 per month...which was crazy!

[Corabar Steve]

But Yes, it it nice to support by paying £1.00 per month
and be able to choose your own personal description :D
Which begs the question, why aren't you a supporter?

[DJMaxG]

Which begs the question, why aren't you a supporter?

Several reasons really.

One of which is that I have to sort my Paypal out, But I shall probably be supporting the forum in the near future.


Sorry Max...it was because you said it cost the forum £30 per month...which was crazy!

Yes, Darren has a dedicated server.

I have read before that some of my posts are being deleted to save room on it. (not sure what size it is)

But, basic hosting with UK Companies cost about £3.99 per month.

Servers can cost £30 per month, depending on what you get.

[dj keevers]

whats the arcade and when do you get the MDD supporter tag?

[Corabar Entertainment]

We're having a few technical issues with the automation of the supporters system at the moment, and are therefore having to do things manually.

I assume that you have signed up as a supporter and paid your £1 through paypal? When did that go through so we can check? (trying to gather info to track the problem).

[dj keevers]

about a 6 days ago ill check

24 Mar 2010 Payment To The mobile disco directory partnership

so only 4 days

[Corabar Entertainment]

I've changed your status over now and we'll check everything later, but you should now have access to the private forum, the arcade, the additional PM space, bigger avatar and signature allowance, etc, etc, etc.... :D

Any problems let me know. ;)


Thanks for signing up! :thumbsup:

[dj keevers]

many thanks angela. Well worth the support value due to the help and interest in this forum. Been away far too long and ill be the first to admit this is one of the finest sources of professional information and support available on the net. Everything feels so new to me presently, but the advice has been both informative and in general constructive

[Corabar Entertainment]

Glad it's working for you :approve:

I too have paid £1 a month, and look forward to the access to other parts of the forum when my account setting thingy has been changed :)

It's £1 a month via paypal (automatically taken until you cancel your subscription).

[Charlie Brown]

I prefer the monthly instalments.

The one off fee is a tad daunting. ;)

Tell me about it! I'd have to work every night of the year for that!

If you read the first post it will explain how to do it. :)

I was surprised how quick and easy it was!!:)


Its probably one of those things you are thinking.... i'll do it when I get round to it and I have a spare 15 minuites!!:bang: :bang:


Well you don't need 15 minuites....you need two!!


Despite frequent good -hearted run-ins with both of the owners I am pleased I have invested.:) :) :)

Remember how heart-warming it is to receive a little appreciation after a Gig....might I suggest the Management and Owners deserve a little pat on the financial back too.:D :D

The management of the site I would think is quite time consuming and a tiny contribution from most of us is all that is required for its continued success.;) ;) ;)

They haven't asked me to post this....just wanted to show I was human after all:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

You did sign up in June, but I can't seem to find a payment from you since - can you check your Paypal for me?

I can see a payment for June and July, but not August? The subscription details say failed??? This may be for the August payment as I need to add my new card details to paypal...


My email for this paypal account is [email protected]

Apologies to those who signed up to support the site while I was away - everyone that has a subscription should be upgraded to MDD supporter now. Please advise if you haven't been upgraded and thanks as always for your support.

[Corabar Entertainment]

I've had a few people ask me how to sign up as a supporter recently, so I thought I'd give this thread a little 'bump' :)

Detailed instructions can be found in the first post on this thread (Click here to go directly to it (http://www.forum.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/showthread.php?p=86055&highlight=support#post86055))

I promise that the process isn't complicated and only takes a minute or two to complete

:thumbsup:

[Gareth]

All you need to do is enter your credit card number, PIN number and the 3 digit security code from the back of the card :D

Please don't scare the b'jesus out of people by suggesting they need to do anything like that! There are some people who won't realise you're joking!

Thank you

Thanks, Glenn - much appreciated :approve:

Just need Darren to get back to check it's all gone through OK, then the activation will be done manually.

I'm guessing it will be tomorrow now, as I doubt Darren will feel much like doing anything remotely work-like when he gets in (if he visits the forum at all, that is)

OK, in the last forum we had problems with the forum software linking to Paypal and the forum actually showed over 100 supporters where as a manual check on Paypal tells me that there are just over 40 monthly supporters, so lots of people have been getting a free ride so to speak.

I am about to change the status of all the supporters who have cancelled or not paid for ages.

If you thought you were paying and your supporter status has been taken away, please PM me with details of your last Paypal payment and I can check and re-instate if necessary.

If you don't check your account on a regular basis and didn't realise the money wasn't coming out, perhaps you would like to re-sign as a supporter.

Many thanks.

without sounding a noob, how do I join up and pay as can't seem to find anything now its changed lol

Found it Eventually

Can you let me know if you have subscribed so I can see if the system has sorted itself out?

I have indeed subscribed, my paypal email and the user name is different to my normal one though as its a joint paypal account for me and my partner just to complicate things :)

I'll pm the email and user name if it assists

I cancelled my sub just before the changeover, and resubscribed today....if you want to check that the new payments are ok.

[Charlie Brown]

I don't think I'm subscribed! Something happened with my PayPal account ages ago. Can a mod or admin confirm this? Or confirm when my payment was last made and I'll pay for the last six months or whatever.

I've just through Paypal and updated the supporters list. Quite a few of you may not realise that your subscription is not up to date and you will have been taken off supporter status if it isn't.

If you think you are paying, let me know and I can look into it.

We had 52 people as listed, but only 35 were actually paying.

[hammy]

I can still access the supporters area so I guess I`m ok?

EDIT:

Just read Darrens post properly and guess that answered my question.

[Daryll]

Did mine again.

[MikeW]

I can't seem to access the supporters area. Could someone from admin please have a look.

Thanks very much.

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

That's because Paypal is saying you don't have a current subscription.

Check with Paypal please and I can change you back if you're still there.

It may have, but it didn't come out last month - I checked again.

OK, mystery solved...

It night have helped if you told me it was Janice Wells Paypal and that your customer reference is Mr Jingles!!

Changed back for you.:)

[MikeW]

It may have, but it didn't come out last month - I checked again.

Not sure if you got my private message. Could you check paypal under my wife's name: Janice Wells

My previous user name was Mr Jingles! But it was changed approx a year and a half ago! This problem has happened before! I contacted Angela last December re this. She sorted it out then. I thought that was the problem solved but obviously not.

The main thing is that it is sorted now!

She didn't sort it out as we can't change your reference number on your Paypal - that is what the problem was.

Just having a look through Paypal and the following supporters have let their supporters subscriptions lapse. We do appreciate the support and I am only mentioning this as some people don't realise that they have lapsed. If you do know, then we thank you for your support in the past and respect your decision not to continue.

Remember though, if you do want to support the site and keep it going, it's only £1 a month and much appreciated.

For their information, the following people have recently lapsed.

How does the subscription work through paypal?

Is it on a time limit and after a year or so it ends? My £1 goes out once a month but can't remember how long ago it was set up, or does it need to be renewed ever so often? :)

The monthly payment option is a rolling subscription, meaning the £1 payment each month will be processed automatically until cancelled via the options in PayPal - so no need to remember about renewal

The yearly subscription has to be manually paid by the user at the end of the 12 month period.

Hope this helps. :beer1:

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Sometimes Paypal cancels for no reason though - we've had this quite a few times and it seems to be totally random, hence my post earlier.

Wasn't there a supporter's forum? My access to that doesn't seem to have been renewed (if it still exists)....
