R/C Tech Subscriptions
 
R/C Tech Subscriptions are now available at a cost of $25/year!

** SUBSCRIBING IS 100% OPTIONAL, AND NON-SUBSCRIBERS WILL NOT LOSE ANY ACCESS! **

Here's a quick rundown on what you'll get for subscribing:
  • An R/C Tech decal sheet
  • An Xtreme R/C Cars decal sheet
  • A 10% discount on R/C Tech apparel and merchandise
  • A $3/year discount on Xtreme R/C Cars magazine subscriptions
  • The ability to use links/colors/fonts in signatures (non-subscribers will be limited to plain text)
  • A special insignia in posts denoting subscriber-level access
  • Access to the R/C Tech Flash Arcade (a 100% futureal-coded original)
  • Access to a Subscribers section of the site which will, at some point, exist :)
  • A Subscribers-only newsletter containing special deals from R/C Tech partners
  • The knowledge that you are helping the site sustain itself and GROW!
As an additional bonus, the first 100 subscribers will receive a special gift as a "thank you" for being there for us. I'm not sure what this will be yet, but I will make sure it's cool. The leading candidates so far are either a pit towel or a pit plaque with your subscriber number on it. I will keep everybody posted.

Some of the features above (signatures, arcade, post insignia) will not happen until our software upgrade to vBulletin 3 (see more information below).

So how does one subscribe? Right now I am set up to handle everything through Paypal, which is the easiest thing for me. To subscribe, go to http://www.paypal.com and send a $25.00 (US dollars) payment to [email protected]. Make sure to include your forum ID name as well as the mailing address where you would like your decals to be sent.

If you are overseas from me and cannot use Paypal, please send me an e-mail letting me know how you would like to pay and we will work something out. I don't want to leave anybody out.

This is the list of all R/C Tech subscribers; if you see your name here, it means you are a current subscriber.

All subscriptions are processed and assigned member numbers in the order they are received.

KoE 02-20-2004 11:17 AM

futureal,

don't have paypal :( i could do western union but i'll be charged almost another USD20 for sending u the fee. cc would be excellent but i could also do thru ikobo. u'll need to withdraw the fund from any ATM machines displaying PLUS sign using i-Kard (will be sent to you by ikobo). might take about 10 days from end-to-end. lemme know :-)

futureal 02-20-2004 01:50 PM

Nova F1 & John: Thanks!

KoE: Let me look into that site, I certainly don't want to leave any of our international members out of this. :) Thanks!

No, you keep 8, I kinds like the list to show who steps up and who's all talk:nod: :nod:

But thanks for the offer keithander, it shows that the class people step up first...:nod: :nod:

futureal 02-21-2004 02:46 PM

One of the questions I received was whether or not people would get to keep their subscriber number forever, and the answer is yes. If you are subscriber #25 now, then you don't renew for 3 years, but renew again sometime in 2008, you will still be subscriber #25. :)

F1Junkie 02-21-2004 08:50 PM

Hi -

will we get an automatic e-mail to remind us to subscribe again?

thanks

Dave

futureal 02-21-2004 09:23 PM

Hopefully by then I will have that in place, yes. I am not looking that far forward yet, I am devoting most of my spare time to working on the new software and related aspects.

TSR6 02-21-2004 11:37 PM

I've seen, and had a chance to "test" the games, and they are pretty cool.

I can't wait to see who can hold the High Score the longest - I have a feeling it won't be me. :lol:

All you subscribers are in for a treat. :cool:

DOMOisCOOL 02-22-2004 12:42 AM

Hey Shane, I've just subscribed:D

Make sure to add me:smile:

Unfortunately, All of the subscribers will have to wait for Shane to do the software upgrade for the games. They will be worth the wait though - I've spent enough time on them at least.

Yet another teaser, i attached a screen shot of space invaders. Note: It may be somewhat distorted since I had to resize and crop some things out of it.

TSR6 02-22-2004 06:17 PM

I don't want to give away to many surprises, but here is another one of the games from the arcade. :)

futureal 02-22-2004 08:43 PM

Boomer: You got it, you're #24. Thanks!

TSR6 is right about the games arcade, I am still working on testing it AND the new forum software to make sure the upgrade goes as smooth as possible. The last thing I want is more than an hour or two of downtime.

Thanks to all who have subscribed so far, I know it's pretty tough to generate widespread interest right now since the new features are still in development and even the decals and stuff aren't ready, but I do thank all who have come on board so far. I will keep working hard no matter what to make sure things get better and better around here. :)

sty 02-23-2004 08:55 AM

Interested
 
Hi, I am from Singapore. besides using paypal, how can I send you the payment? and will it be difficult for you to send me the goodies if i join? Thanks.

Steven

futureal 02-23-2004 11:40 AM

Would it be possible for you to use the www.ikobo.com service from Singapore (the one that KoE suggested earlier)? I am looking for ways other than Paypal to take payments. You could always draw out US funds and then airmail them to me, but that seems even more complicated.

Shipping the stuff outside of the US is no problem for me, I've already had a few people sign up who are overseas.

acyrier 02-23-2004 12:49 PM

Subscription.
 
YOU'VE GOT CASH!...kinda. Thanks for your time and effort.
paypalled you from "[email protected]" for screen name acyrier.

sty 02-23-2004 05:38 PM

Hi
 
Hi Shane,

I know this sound stupid, but I guess i will just put the $25 USD into an envelop and send it over to you. I know that there will be a risk of you not gettig the money but it is ok for me. If it is alrite for you. Please pm me your mailing add so that I can start sending you the cash. I will put the money inside a thank you card so as not to be so obvious that there is money inside the envelop. Once again thanks for having a great site.

Steven

GTO2 02-23-2004 07:41 PM

Shane,

mine is thru via Paypal.
Hope it make to the 100:sweat: .
Anybody from SG having problem with Paypal can PM me, would be glad to help. Viva RCTech!!

smartdriver 02-24-2004 03:51 PM

Did you get my subscription this morning?

futureal 02-24-2004 11:40 PM

Yup, I got it -- just got home and looking at the site for the first time tonight.

Thanks!

I must say I had absolutly no hesitation subscribing to the website. I've only been a member a short time but truly appreciate your efforts and the time you spend. this is definately the best r/c website.

Maybe we will meet eventually.

Keep up the fantastic work.

Andrew Fowler

Still Bill 02-26-2004 10:05 PM

Dang nab it...Only #22.

Does this mean I'm back in the C main?

futureal 02-26-2004 10:28 PM

Andrew: Thanks! I'll keep working on it no matter what. :)

Bill: I screwed up on that one; I forgot you wanted #4 and had pre-assigned it. But, I did get 22, which is like 2+2=4, right? heh... I can try to switch you with somebody else if you'd like!
