We will be upgrading the forums soon. Just a head's up. It is an expensive move for us, but one we feel will be worth it in the long run. Faster loading times and hopefully fewer problems. Our thanks to our loyal members who subscribe to the forums because you have in part have made this move possible.

It will be mid-November when the move happens so this gives you plenty of warning. :) Unlike last time, it will be a gradual move and hopefully no hiccups along the way-

For the newbies who don't know about the paid membership here:

Paid Membership Info (http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37659)

Awesome, thank you for letting us know MA

I consider $5.00 a month an absolute bargain, considering the time I spend here. I couldn't go to the movies/cinema once for that price, and I spend an awful lot of time here (guilty conscience - I admit, I'm a TCS addict).

I totally agree. I love TCS. A paid membership is a bargin. :bigthumb:

It will be a well deserved move!
With the high growth this site has been having over the past few months, we will be very ready for the future :).

Awesome!! And thanks for the reminder about paid subscriptions. Mine was set to expire in 3 days! I'd forgotten about renewing it!

Thanks for the heads-up MA. And for anyone who needs it, here's another vote for subscribing -- $5 a month well spent! :clap:

i still need to get a paypal account!

Actually, you don't need to have a PayPal account to make a payment through paypal. After you have been redirected to PayPal, just click on "If you do not currently have a PayPal account". From there you will be taken to a page where you can enter your credit card details like you would with any normal online purchase. At the end, you will be presented with the option of creating an account if you wish, but you do not of course have to :).

Now, if you want to use funds in your personal bank account, you need to open a PayPall account, transfer the funds in then make your payment from your paypal account balance.

So lots of options available :bigthumb:

What is an advantage to a paid account?5bucks is cheap at the price but will it be mandatory?

It's not mandatory at all, and it just comes with different perks. You can turn off the ads if you wish, you get more PM spaces and more attachments for photos- things like that. You can read about it in the link I provided above, it explains the subscriber perks better.

I just renewed mine last month! Definitely worth it!

Dou you get notified when it's time to renew? I just did a tester 3 month subscription and I'ts up sometime this month.
