Got spare money?

Say, why not put it here, that way you could expand the size and not clutter up the location/avatar table.

Besides, there is plenty of room here.

Increase Your PM Length

Why not a little more civ-style?

'Citizen' in place of 'lifer', and 'Supporter' sounds good

Full PM-box? Change here!

This "tag" will be optional, right?

It will be something like avatars now (something we can disable/enable for our own and those of others), right?

I will be farking annoyed, if "inmate" or "lifer" were chosen

Hmmm... I like that idea. What about "Entertainer"? or "Great Leader"? Lot's of good choices.

Civ themed ideas also seem good!

"Patron Explorer" might be a good choice along that line

as i said, my current consideration(and without having spoken with Dan yet i believe we are in agreement) is for a default "supporter" icon, and beyond that give some options

Excuse me if it sounds kind of bad, but... if we're going to pay to support, to help Apolyton, could not be a good thing to keep in the anonimate it?. I see the badge like "hey, look, I hekp here and you don't, or things like that..."

I can see that kind of phrases coming...

Increase the size of your Attachments

Well, what if instead of a badge of the sort that you have mark... what if you just had under their civgroups a little STAR that marks their level of contribution?

It's less intrusive and it could be colored differently to represent the different levels of support?

Mark, you should be a kind of philosopher! .

So, now with that in mind.. I would like a civ related title...

How about "worker" for mods or admins .

And citizens for the suscribers. They could be scientists, taxmen or enternainers depending on... post count?. Type of subcription? (thinking on future)

Tbh Mark a Civgroup icon like DC's star does seem the best suggestion to me. It's noticeable but unobtrusive, which is the goal here right?

Put an end to popups!

I'd avoid the cutesy civ-crap. I think it's likely that the majority of cash-paying members could easily be deemed as 'institutionalizable' so 'inmate' seems to fit. As for anyone paying a 'lifetime' membership, I'd think 'idiot with more money than sense' would be appropriate.
