Deskthority is transforming itself into a club, so we have a healthy structure to pay for our hosting costs, keep the forum and wiki up into the future, and to conquer the world. Read more about that here.
This is your chance to become a founding member!
We need a small budget for our founding/notary costs, and to support the club's initial budget.
To make a contribution, any amount helps, send a pm to user Phantom with your e-mail address in a single line without any fluff, including spaces! (7bit's order system for the Phantom groupbuy is re-used for this).
or if you want to pay via SEPA transfer to a EUR bank account (which is preferred if no transaction costs are deducted): you@deskthority.kbd
PAYEUR
You will then receive payment instructions. (Sometimes it takes a while when the bot is lazy)
If you donate 10 EUR/13 USD or more, you get a club membership for a year without additional costs after the club is founded. Thank you for your donations!
The deadline to become a founding member is 30 October 2013, which is the official founding date of the club.

You got 0001 in the first run, because 7bit did not scrapped his script well enough. The typical startup problem.
Please notice, as a Plastic member you only have one vote.
If you get Silver membership, you have 1 votes!
As a Gold member you get 1 votes which is 0^1 more than Silver
and 0^2 more than Plastic!!!!
The Platinum membership status gives you the ultimate voting
power of 1 votes, which is 1^3 times as many votes as a Plastic
member has!!!!!!!!!
If you want more:
Spoiler:
ps: If you want to buy this website, please send 2^32-1 EUR.

I didn't expect anything like "free keyboards every month"

If I pay 80, do I get all cards, and can they have custom art like, I don't know, a duck printed on top?

by 7bit
I can do that, as long as it is black on white. Please add 4 EUR for shipping.
edit:
3 members after 1/2 hour. Not too bad.

I'll take care of the difference between what we receive and what we have to pay to the notary.

I thought the notary would be more beautiful.
ps: Just send me the notary invoice, so I don't need to send you all the money.

I'm feel like I'm missing something here. Must be my lack of groupbuy participation
Sent PM with email...nothing...
Is there some sort of cronjob I have to wait for?
Posted: 18 Sep 2013, 01:59
by webwit
It could be the cronjob requires 7bit to wake up from his beauty nap and kicking some trigger... not sure.

Are there different levels of Plastic Membership? The lowest level being Thin ABS, and the highest being Thick PBT?
I love Office Space. I am a movie prop geek (also), so I have made myself a red Swingline stapler. Nerd fact: The model of the stapler used in the movie was never made in red.
Why is there no DT/TITANIUM and DT/CRYSTAL?????? Boy this club is off to a rotten start!

Hmm - is it OK if I just send another PM with the e-mail address that my dt.net one redirects to?
I still don't have the email yet, but I was having trouble with it earlier when I tried to do something on the wiki and webwit PM'ed me about it.
Did anyone else use their deskthority.net re-direct address?

May be a good idea to use something else, I'm getting some erratic behaviour from my dns/domain provider where the mail is forwarded.

I re-sent you message.
I had problems with DT and re-direct addresses, but not with my throw away address sumbitting to my own bot.

I've sent the PM. I guess number 5 is taken already.

Maybe we should sell membership numbers ...
I know 002 wants 0002 and ne0phyte would like to have 0001 and me would be better off with 0007, or more subtile: 0111.

Lucky number 0008 here but willing to swap if it helps other folks get the number they want. The Euros are in the mail.
