A few months ago I was approached by another member of the KI Team. They asked if there could be any way in which members could donate to KI. This member specifically was interested in having kinzisland.forumotion.com become kinzisland.com. I thought this was a spectacular idea so I immediately added a Donation System to the site. I would like to thank all the members who have already donated but I have decided to improve the donation system a bit. Here is what I have added.
When you donate to KI you get the following bonuses as a thank-you for contributing to the site:
- A part of the Donator Group
- A Gold Username
- A Gold KI Donator Banner
- An Animated Colorful Donator Reputation Star. (This Reputation Star is only available to Donators)
- Ability to delete any of your messages in any section of the forum excluding the TE.
- Ability to post Calender Events in any forum.
Here are a few answers to some frequently asked questions:
How to you donate? It is actually very simple just click on the Donate Button up top. Or follow this link:
http://www.kinzisland.com/donate.forum What are credits? They are used to repersent the donations that members have been made. Due to the fact donations may be madse in different currencies they are stored in credits instead of dollars, or euros, or yens, or another type of currency.
How much do credits cost? Prices vary and currency exchanges are taken into consideration. Here is some comparisons:
10 US Dollars will donate about 700 credits
10 Canadian Dollars will donate about 550 credits
10 Euros will donate 1000 credits (this is the basic sytem in which all other currencies are compared to)
What will you be doing with these credits? Well there are many things that we can do but the major upgrades they can go to is.
- Having a custom domain name like kinzisland.com (We only need 600 more credits)
- Completely disabling the ads
- Increase Gallery Storage
If you do donate to KI please PM myself so that I can upgrade your permissions.
I would also like to make it clear that KI will forever be a free forum. We will never charge our members membership fees.
To anyone that does donate thank you very much.
