Actually you get more than just the Cookies if you donate $50. First to address this, I saw there was more tiers above $50, but this may sound selfish but kind of didn't want one of the awards for $100+. Apparently if you donate 100+ you get to talk with the Proboards CEO, but I don't really have anything to say to the guy. That tier more feels like it's for forum hosts/mods who have suggestions they want to make. Anyway, if you donate 50 you get the following other stuff/badges to gift: - 11 gifts of a month free of ads.
- 1 gift of being able to upload 5gb files for a month.
- 5 "Apple Pie" badges (and each time you use it a piece of the pie is removed, so the first person gets a full pie, 2nd person gets 4/5s of a pie, 3rd person 3/5s of a pie, etc.)
- 2 "Coder" badges
- 2 "Comedian" badges
- 5 "Cookie" badges
- 2 "Designer" badges
- 2 "Foundation of the Community" badges
- 2 "Great Moderator" badges
- 3 "Great Staff Member" badges
- 2 "Great Writer" badges
- 3 "Helpful Member" badges
- 5 "Like" badges
- 2 "Pillar of the Community" badges
- 2 "Reply Magnet" badges
- 16 "Snowball" badges
- 5 "Thank You" badges
- 2 "Wholesome Member" badges
I'll certainly try to give them out the to the best of my judgement (or you can just ask to have one, like anyone who wants a free month without ads or that 5gb file upload just ask and I'll give it to ya). I already have a few ideas who I can give some of them too... and I have an idea for the 16 Snowballs...

Does anyone want my ad free month? I'm not going to use it (I quite like the little ads, got one for jellybeans sitting there right now!), so thought I may as well check.

I don't really want any of that, so..." Does anyone want my ad free month? I'm not going to use it (I quite like the little ads, got one for jellybeans sitting there right now!), so thought I may as well check. I would also be willing to gift some of my ad-free months.

It would've been really neat if some of the higher rewards did something for the forum itself (such as ad free for a whole forum), but I understand why that might not be feasible.

I got that too, and would like to help donate, but I have no method of giving them money.

So I got my postcard. Back on Monday, actually. I was expecting it in a few weeks. Not a few days. And it’s actually hand written and addressed! The message may not be long or personal, but I’m still impressed.

There was a bit of discussion on Discord already about it, but I mean, it's about this forum, I think we should discuss it here as well. Very off-topic, but... we have a Discord?? xD

Very off-topic, but... we have a Discord?? xD We have had a Discord for a few years now... it's not an official extension of the forum, but it is exclusively for NTWFers, and we follow the same rules there as we do here. Do you want an invite? I can send you one through PM EDIT: oops, I saw your message on the Recent Posts, and didn't realize PFA had already replied. But yeah, any of us can send you an invite if you want!

It's been a bit of time, I know, but I finally got around to contributing my gift to ProBoards. A nice touch that no one else mentioned - you get to send an optional message to the ProBoards staff. I sent them something short and sweet thanking them for providing a place to hang out with my writer friends.
