We've gone live with the new automated (instant activation) subscription system, and it can be accessed through your User CP -> Paid Subscriptions. Choose the appropriate level of membership and go to town.
When you get to the payment screen, DO NOT FILL IN ANYTHING IN THE CUSTOMER ID FIELD. THE SOFTWARE KNOWS YOUR USERNAME ALREADY.
If you get an error about your billing address not matching what your card lists, you'll need your proper billing address for the charge to go through. Non US customers will most likely not be able to use this system at all and will have to use the previous system for their membership upgrades, and will be charged at the old rates since we have to enter each one manually.
If you have any questions, or problems, please post them here, not elsewhere on the website. I'll do my best to help you out.
If you try this system and encounter a problem, make a post here. I will need to know your LAST NAME, DATE OF ATTEMPT, and LAST FOUR of your credit card. DO NOT PUT YOUR FULL CREDIT CARD NUMBER IN THIS THREAD.
Since the system is automated, I'm putting in a price reduction for the Gold & KnifeMaker memberships - Gold memberships are now $25 a year, Knifemaker memberships are now $40.
I've also activated Platinium Memberships for those who are interested in more private message storage, more image attachment storage and other features. Platinum members get 100 private messages, 5mb of image attachments, the ability to change their custom titles, upload profile pictures of themselves, and the ability to close their own threads. Price for Platinum memberships is $50 a year.
The new membership system has more than a few advantages. For one, you don't have to wait on my lazy ass to get around to getting you activated. For another, you can sign up for however many years you'd like. Plus, there won't be any more screw ups with your profile accidentally being shut off if someone's been drinking heavily. So, in summation, it removes a lot of the human out of the equation, hooray!
Thanks for your support.
