The bonus is that alongside the added server, you still get to see a 503 error anyways.

Holy frig....it looks like eBay or some 90's GeoCities site in here! xD

...and Wow! I learn new things about this site every day!
I never knew you could have blinking text....

Updated by anonymous

Yeah, HTML has supported blinking text for... far too long... and e621 supports at least some HTML in comments.

I dare not explore the depths to which this support goes, because I don't want the admins to feel the need to disable it. Apparently some people feel they need to give the admins something else to do for the next version.

Can we please kill and bury this thread? My eyes are bleeding.

I think the bonus is being able to research more tags than before.

Annoying HTML aside, what <i>is</i> this "bonus"?

I don't know.
It <i>isn't</i> an increased number of search terms (Don't forget you're a Privileged member, Kald...).

There <i>is</i> a way of removing the new! colourful! text that's become popular, thanks to the power of <u><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108/">Stylish</a></u> (on Firefox, anyway. The Chrom[e|ium] version doesn't want to know...)

Add the following as a new style -
<i>
@-moz-document domain('e621.net'), url-prefix('http://e621.net/')
{
p[style]{
color: inherit !important;
font-size: inherit !important;
font-family: inherit !important;
text-decoration: none ! important }
marquee { -moz-binding: none ! important }}
</i>

and all you'll be left with is bold text where the eyesore used to be.

I'm fairly sure the normal amount got increased from 2 to 4, and from 4 to 8 (or 6 to 8) for privileged.

So...with this 'privileged' user status, how long until e621 becomes pay?

EDIT: I might very well be misunderstanding this (I've been on vacation and missed a good amount of anything that's happened recently) but it seems like either people are doing favors or paying for this 'privileged' status. I say once more, I very well might be wrong. So what's going on?

You cannot pay for privileged status. I cannot remember clearly but I believe getting privileged is as simple as sending an email to [email protected] and asking them nicely to upgrade your account, but don't take my word for it. It's also given out to people who go far out of their way to help improve the site (Bat Week).

Oh, okay. Thanks. I was like "The fuck, it's become this?!" Lol, shows how much a misunderstanding can do.

i'm really hoping for a vote down comments feature

Updated by anonymous

could be the fact that e621's servers are really held together with pit stick and doritoes.

Yes - let's make the comments more like youtube - after all youtube is the pinnacle of quality comments.

Seriously, people already rage out and whine constantly about the utterly, completely meaningless image vote scores, and you want to add them to COMMENTS too? Ugh.

Updated by anonymous

if someone really has the time to vote down 9001 times on one specific comment, then that really is sad. besides, didn't you once say that there would be a list of features people wanted then they could donate for them, when the aloted amount was met, it would be added? i'd donate for it.

OK well let me figure out how much extra load on the servers adding extra tracking and database columns to every single one of hundreds of thousands of comments that have to be referenced every time any of those comments are loaded up and assign a money cost based on how much that would stress the already taxed servers and we'll bill you monthly.

Because it's not a single donation thing... that was the point. Monthly costs will go up... probably greatly and e621 wants to prevent that.

We already have server issues v.v

If the site is so expensive, then stop paying for it and shut it down. Done.

Updated by anonymous

For now ads pay for most (if not all) of the monetary cost of runningthe site, but as I understand, just barely. Without any other method of increasing profit, anything that significantly increases server load would require a better server to keep up, which would mean them paying out the ass.

Actually, no it doesn't. We usually fall a few hundred dollars short.

Isn't there any other way you could raise funds? Like make a VIP account on the forum?

This may sound like a stupid thing to say but, if you guys were having a hard time paying for just one server, then wouldn't two of them make the problem worse?
