An ad-free option is now available

[Brock Beauchamp]

I know some of you showed interest in this, so I'm releasing it discounted over our other sites. This site is new, and we haven't built any kind of cache with content or contributors, so instead of $60/year, it's $40/year.

Additionally, for the next month, you can get $15 off that with the code "GCM" at checkout.

So $25 for a year. Does that sound fair?

I can't thoroughly test this from my end, so please let me know if there are any issues with the process.

I went ahead and signed up for the year with the GCM code.  I received no acknowledgement of payment or a receipt after completing.  

I will let you know what happens.

Happy to report that all ads appear to be gone already.

It looks correct from my dashboard. Weird you didn't receive an email, I'll keep an eye on that.

For an extra $40 you can block Batmags

Am I missing something?

Paid my money, ads gone.  Love it.  Thanks!

Edit: except now, my posts (and those by others who paid) now appear with a gold box around them and a star in the upper left corner of the post.  I, uh, don’t really need that recognition.  Can I decline that “benefit”?

It means you're a superstar among posters ... or something like that.

I would also like to decline this benefit. It just replaces one distraction with another one. It's not as annoying as the ads, but annoying nonetheless.
