Supporter Account Information

What is a Supporter Account

A SW-Fans.Net Supporter Account is a forum account that has many additional features that a free registered account does not have. A SW-Fans.Net Supporter Account Upgrade lasts for a period of one year, starting at the time the account's status is changed.

• Are you not able to find a place to host your signature images that is as reliable as SW-Fans.Net?

• Would you like to have a larger Private Message quota limit?

• Do you want full access to all of the features of the SW-Fans.Net Gallery?

• Would you like access to the SW-Fans.Net Exclusive private forums?

• Would you like to have the Title image that some other users have under their names within posts that indicates they are SW-Fans.Net Supporters?

If you answered yes to any of these questions then this upgraded account might be just the thing you want. For more information continue reading this page.

Why get a Supporter Account

Have a look at the list of features available, ask around on the forums, determine if the features are something you would like to have available to you. If so, then you should do it. Ten U.S. dollars per year is a very low price for all of the features offered. Your money goes to support SW-Fans.Net's hosting and software fees, so that SW-Fans.Net can continue to be available to you on a high speed server, with the best features vBulletin boards have to offer.

This is not a system designed to turn this community into an organization that profits from its members. All proceeds will be applied to SW-Fans hosting fees, new software acquisition for the community, and current software license renewals.

Owning and operating a successful website such as SW-Fans.Net is not free. It requires monetary investments by its owner to keep available and running. It requires a great deal of effort on the part of the staff to bring you a safe, fun, well organized and interesting community experience. Isn’t helping make this all possible the right thing to do?
