How many Beckerheads (or aspiring Beckerheads) are Basic, Gold, or Platinum?

If you haven't noticed, we've been drawing a lot of traffic (73 members as I type this note).
Lots and lots of new folks are stopping in and sharing their growing interest in Becker knives.
I'm stoked by all the new people, the new knives that are coming out soon, even the possibility of some new Becker merchandise.

Some of this traffic translates into support for Bladeforums, which I fully support.
Next month, I will have been around for a dozen years, and BFC has always been THE place for knife information and community as far as I'm concerned.
I was trying to think of a good way to track Bladeforums support by Beckerheads, but the simplest seemed to be just a thread where folks chime in.

So what say you? How many Beckerheads, or Beckerhead wannabes (or gonna'-bes), are paying members?
Even though my username doesn't show it, I'm paid up as Gold through the summer of next year, so count me in!

Edited to add: In case you're on the fence, let me tell you... the site is so much better without the ads. :p And the PM's... oh, the PM's. :D

Beckerhead #81 is gold. Much better without the ads.
 
Gold here. I don't have any Beckerhead aspirations, but I love the knives and keep a BK2 or BK9 handy in all my ranch trucks/tractors. Good tools...

I buy/sell a lot of knives on the forum because I live about 100 miles from the nearest knife shop and I don't see anything interesting locally. I'm not a collector...just someone who likes to play with new toys once in a while and pass them on a few days later. I don't keep any knife unless I have a practical use for it.
 
I got my gold membership for several reasons, but the one that did it was so I could have a beckerhead sig :)
 
I figure that along with getting rid of ads, being a paying member has many advantages. The knowledge that I have acquired on this forum is worth every penny.
I wouldn't say that I am an aspiring Beckerhead, but I enjoy the antics of this sub-forum in particular. If I were to receive by beckerhead # at some point, that would be cool. But it isn't why I am here.
 
Gold .... Aspiring beckerhead....albeit..
Not the most posty....

Although I have eaten Post Toasties....and I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express once...cuz I had too.

Gold. You aren't thinking about charging me to hang out with you Beckerheads are you? I thought the dues was buying Beckers :)

Seriously though. BF truly does offer benifits worth subscribing to.
 
Would have become a paying member here a while ago if I still didn't have this issue with PayPal :( ; just to support the site and the great people that make it all work!

I don't have ads. ;)

Beckerhead gonnabe here. I own 5 Beckers so far (more when the Machax and tweeners are available). Just waiting for my post count to get high enough, without artificially inflating my posts with nonsense or silliness.

I also plan on becoming a forum member as soon as finances allow.

One question though: I thought being a member of the forum was a prerequisite? The rules say "must be a member in good standing" -- I interpreted this to mean "member" (ie, paid) as opposed to "user" (ie, unpaid). Is therefore possible to be a Beckerhead without being a paid forum member?

Not that it matters for me, I'll be joining either way....
