Membership Benefits

[thewelsho]

What are the benefits of signing up for SIDC? I signed up but since the new forums came on line it appears that my membership has expired. I can't remember when I signed up. As a suggestion, could the new system accomodate automated reminders by e-mail or PM when the expiry time nears?

That aside, what are the benefits of signing up? Please don't say discounts, cause I haven't ever gotten any!

I can only answer from a website point of view as all these "member benefits" are totally new and only available from today.

From a Forum aspect Members have:

• 20MB Upload space each on the SIDC Server for photos etc.
  
• 100 Personal Messages Storage, as opposed to 20 for non-members (or is it 10? I can't remember) That will probably increase for members and decrease for non-members.
  
• Ability to upload up to 3 cars to the SIDC Garage with 4 photos of each car and 5 photos of Mods to each car. That will probably change to accomodate demand from members.
  
• Unlimited (for now anyway! That will change) upload access to the SIDC Gallery.
  
• Ability to create and post to a Blog. Possibly not of interest unless you're undergoing a project.
  

Benefits outside the website, best to speak to Karyn or Phil. I've had discounts that pay for membership, but I've not always had them without arguing my case.

I can confirm, when the membership system goes live, hopefully tomorrow, you'll have total control over your membership account. Can renew as and when you want and automated reminders are built-in. I've been using this system elsewhere for about 18 months now and it's the dogs danglies.

John, the savings on Trackdays alone are surely worth it for you?

There's also the warm feeling inside you get when you signup.

discount for your track days as well

For the cost of membership, I've saved that already after getting work done at Greers/servicing at S&S etc.
