Comments? Suggestions?
I’ve been a monthly donor for years, and believe the key is to increase that area of participation. Find a way to identify , at a glance, who the monthlies are.
Maybe a different color to the font of their handle, maybe a gold star, or a mini American flag icon next to your name. Maybe different colors for different levels of monthly donation amounts. Platinum stars for those giving over a hundred?

I believe that if the monthlies were easily identified, more people would proudly participate that way.

I’d like to add that monthlies should have the ability to change their handle, of course as long as a history went with that change. Im so sick of mine I could spit, and would pay a few more bucks to change it.

Make that donation to FR and I'll tell you how to change your screen name and keep your posting history! Heh!

Forum handles are a bit like tattoos. One should consider long and hard about any permanently identifying mark before making their choice.

I agree that it would be nice to have the ability to choose a new handle, if you later feel that you chose badly when signing up.
