NEW FEATURE: CougarBoard Premium removes ads, increases FO limit, and more!
CougarBoard
8/18/15 10:15am
Here's some features that, for me, could warrant $50/year:
snowbird
8/18/15 10:18am
I like your ideas, btw. I appreciate the input.
El Jefe
8/18/15 4:08pm
I would encourage you to look at the last item on his list seriously. I love it
Cyclogist
8/24/15 10:22am
I would pay 50$/yr for those features.

Oh yeah, I could definitely support that last New Rule!!!

Those might warrant $12.

Don't care about the ads. Only have a few FO. Been on for a few weeks. It sucks.
MMM
8/18/15 10:27am
It's not required to subscribe. You won't lose anything by not subscribing.

You should add a benefit for the faithful who sign up the first month.
Y2k
8/18/15 10:29am
$50/year for that? LOL
Bravescoug
8/18/15 10:31am
Brandon Ogletree thinks this is a great idea!
fredgarvin
8/18/15 10:44am
...And we see where that got him.
El Fuego

It's not required. CB will continue as before if you don't subscribe.
El Jefe
8/18/15 10:45am
After I read the benefits I was going to sign up just to donate a little money
fiberpost

But a $60/yr XBOX Live subscription is no problem...

8/20/15 3:57pm
I'm pretty sure maybe 95% of folks in this thread can technically afford it.

it's $30 per year

So if I want to continue to have rainbow, religion, marriage and political...
Revolution
8/18/15 10:32am
No. No need to subscribe.

At least from what I understand, you're grandfathered in.

No, if you're already a donor, those benefits continue.
El Jefe
8/18/15 10:42am
That's what Obama said...
AndyDwyer
8/18/15 11:06am
LOL, true. I'm not expecting a huge take-up, though.
El Jefe
8/18/15 11:45am
oh ok i was confused about your last statement about if we had just donated.
ColonelMustard7
8/21/15 11:47pm
Also, when is the roll out?
Revolution
8/18/15 10:33am
A lot of users can't afford that. It'll change the whole dynamic of the board.
Bravescoug
8/18/15 10:53am
How does it change the dynamic of the board?
El Jefe
8/18/15 10:57am
Just curious . . . when one's subscription expires and they have 100 users on
rainorsnow
8/18/15 11:01am
I haven't dealt with that yet.
El Jefe
8/18/15 11:47am
I don't think it changes anything, the biggest effect it will have is giving...
BengalCougar
8/18/15 10:57am
Sure it changes something. No new users can have "donor" status w/o
jdub
8/18/15 11:13am
Not really all they have to do is the 3 month subscription for 14.99
cougarfann888
8/18/15 11:16am
subscription implies a time limit to me, but perhaps Jefe views that differently
jdub
8/18/15 11:17am
He says of you subscribe for 3 months you get the current benefits
cougarfann888
8/18/15 11:22am
so, he really ISN'T doing away with the donor feature, he just renamed it, gave
jdub
8/18/15 11:26am
That's my understanding anyway
cougarfann888
8/18/15 11:30am
yep, rereading, that's what it says. I think you're right
jdub
8/18/15 11:31am
That's not my understanding. He is keeping donor status, and adding a layer on
garyfan
8/18/15 11:33am
That's pretty much correct.
El Jefe
8/18/15 11:50am
Architecture doesn't matter to end-users, right?
jdub
8/18/15 12:00pm
Agreed. I just didn't want to say it's the same, because it's a little different
El Jefe
8/18/15 12:04pm
It specifically lists the lifetime benefits separately.
El Jefe
8/18/15 11:48am
In essence, a $15 donation
zonacougar
8/18/15 1:09pm
Can we get something that shows we are a premium user, so everyone knows how
CougarTwins
8/18/15 10:54am
It should be a royal blue ribbon
coolcats
8/18/15 11:11am
You can have Vivint next to your name.
sah22
8/21/15 12:58am
A mobile app only being available to premium would suck.
yfootball
8/18/15 11:12am
I don't want ads on the app, so this was kind of necessary.
El Jefe
8/18/15 11:51am
Could there be an option to pay for the app
Warner
8/18/15 12:28pm
this, I'd pay the 2.99 just for the app. Or give me free with ads.

Will mods get free premium status? Also, are you accepting mod applications?
benny1982
8/18/15 11:15am
Yes, since they help me out, I gave them all subscription status.
El Jefe
8/18/15 11:51am
And there's the end of new members.
kccougar
8/18/15 11:20am
I think you're overreacting. $15 isn't that much more than the $10 "donation"
Revolution
8/18/15 11:36am
I agree. The bigger issue is increasing the FO limit. The more people who limit
garyfan
8/18/15 11:41am
I don't see too many people spending $50 a year for 20 more FOers
Mr Bassman
8/18/15 11:52am
You're probably right. I'm just trying to give them some extra benefits.
El Jefe
8/18/15 12:01pm
Lower it to $20 a year
Acorn
8/18/15 12:17pm
Unfortunately, the $50 price is about what it takes to remove the ads.
El Jefe
8/18/15 12:21pm
Make it ala carte:
Acorn
8/18/15 12:28pm
How would you know that if you don't know how many people will sign up for it?
Bravescoug
8/18/15 12:28pm
Getting some great feedback -- Two levels: $25 level and $50 level
Reedme
8/18/15 7:25pm
$50 per user per year
Veracruz

Don't forget the costs

Acorn

We kind of have that with the ignore filter.
El Jefe
8/18/15 1:50pm
"Kind of" is the key word because they can see your posts.
Acorn
8/18/15 4:02pm
I just meant the "global ignore" effect.
El Jefe
8/18/15 4:09pm
Ironic that many of the so called conservatives are the biggest proponents of it

Not enough people isn't Cougarboard's problem.

not for me. i could care less about the adds

zonacougar

only for the Haribo Sugar Free Gummy Bears 5LB Bag

At least the charade of a "donation" is finally over.
Kerbouchard
8/18/15 1:10pm
A feature to add to the app: GPS tracking of board members on live map...
zonacougar
8/18/15 1:14pm
Another feature idea for subscribers: the ability to post-n-host images right
zonacougar
8/18/15 1:16pm
El Jefe would probably have to increase his storage capacity for that
hessrp
8/18/15 1:19pm
This would be so helpful, but I understand the limitations.
cougfanblue
8/18/15 1:43pm
Especially for when I do a print screen of a photo from another website.
cougfanblue
8/18/15 1:43pm
That's not a bad idea.
El Jefe
8/18/15 1:51pm
I'd gladly pay the $ if it included that and an app
dmatt
8/18/15 2:17pm
Perhaps you could host it elsewhere, but it is facilitated through the board
zonacougar
8/18/15 4:25pm
And yet another feature idea: Grab all contacts from phone.
El Fuego
8/18/15 1:18pm
My idea was much better
Nikomedes
8/18/15 1:52pm
Throw in some on demand True Blue episodes
RunningQB
8/18/15 2:04pm
i'd be a buyer at an annual subscription price of $20 or so...
ds7
8/18/15 2:13pm
I want a lifetime option.
Ssebo
8/18/15 2:20pm
So for the freeloader that was just about to donate?
Anae4Anae
8/18/15 2:23pm
After 3 months, you'd still show up as a donor.
El Jefe
8/18/15 2:49pm
Then I don't get the angst. A premium option is a great idea. Make a Platinum
Anae4Anae
8/18/15 3:21pm
For the amount of time and entertainment people get here, $50 is not a lot
HendyCoug
8/18/15 2:34pm
You should have a free premium option to try it out.
Veracruz
8/18/15 2:57pm
If you add a platinum CB member option... will there be a luncheon?
El Fuego
8/18/15 3:40pm
That could be fun!
El Jefe
8/18/15 3:55pm
How much would it be just for the three months?
Harrison0Yfan
8/18/15 4:19pm
It's $14.95 for 3 months
El Jefe
8/18/15 4:41pm
