Why I Upgraded My Account Today
I have lurked on this site for many years, and I signed up for a free account a few years ago. Today, I finally paid for 1 year of a subscribed account.

First, I want to say that I am over 50 years old, and I have been a part of a lot of various online communities, dating all the way back to the original BBS's. Every community has its pros and cons, its good people and its knuckleheads. GLP is no different.

I don't come here for the conspiracy theories, the politics, or the religion. Personally, I don't care what your personal political or religious beliefs are because they are your basic rights as a human being, even if they are diametrically opposite of mine.

I come here because I have seen people offer up their homes to complete strangers in order to provide them with shelter from a major hurricane bearing down on the US, for no other reason than they were a member of this community. I have seen threads dedicated to the sharing of information and checking on friends and family when a disaster strikes somewhere.

I decided I want to be a part of that. And if a few bucks can help keep that sense of community and human decency going, than it's my responsibility to contribute.

To the friends I have already made, I look forward to getting to know you better. To friends I have not yet made, I look forward to meeting you. To everyone else... I'll be polite and civil if you will.

Cheers,
Riff

Re: Why I Upgraded My Account Today
I basically did the same thing but my motivation was different.

I subscribed because I don’t know where I’d go for similar info and discourse. BTW, if anybody has suggestions on other places, please PM me.

Having said that, GLP has always felt like home and will continue to be. And I put my money where my mouth is with the full year membership.

I also plan on gifting upgrades as soon as I’m able. It’s how I discovered some features and was made to feel like I belonged even though I primarily lurk.

Best of luck and God bless Trin. I don’t know where I’d go without GLP.

Re: Why I Upgraded My Account Today
I bounce in and out all the time with an account, but I always 100 percent of the time lurk. First thing I do in the morning is check the GLP pinned threads. Pray I don't get fecal matter on the phone.......1st thing in the morning...don't judge me.

More than happy to give a few bucks for the privilege of viewing and experiencing this site. It's the only one I would marry.

I just signed up for a year. Like you, I've been lurking here for a long, long time. The hate on this site gets old, and I often have very different opinions than some, but I figure if the rest of us don't speak up and make the site into what we want it to be, then we're the losers and we're cowards. Thanks for the inspiration, Riff Raff, and for all the work the mods do and that Trinity does.

I remember when I found this place by accident...always

kept the link. Looked once in awhile and it seemed weird

to me.

I finally was going through links getting rid of old ones

I never used and was about to delete this one then I really

started reading the information---AND I GOT HOOKED!!!

It's been downhill ever since...

Just kiddin'......

It's awesome. Now I have neurosis and 'DOOM' fantasies.
