Here's the deal. The mods, and especially Ames (our great site admin), want to thank you all for being such great posters. The content posted, though heated at times, is usually not vulgar and derogatory, and for that we thank you! The number of hits this site brings in during a week is unbelievable (especially during 'in-season'). We have a constant infiltration of new members, and some of them know about the supporting members option, while some do not. We want to make people aware that PN is run for free to all posters. 99% of this site's post content is on the free forums. However, there is a portion of information that is posted inside 'The Den Lounge' which is viewable by supporting members only. We do something unique with PN, compared to most boards. Half of what members donate to PN goes to the Panther Scholarship Club, while half of the money goes to off-set costs picked up by AmesPanther. It is expensive to run a site like this, and thus the supporting members option is available to those who wish to help out.
Some of the things that we are doing on PN's supporting members' lounge this summer and fall are opposing fan previews of Panther football opponents. The first one is already posted (Drake), while the rest will be posted over the next few weeks. There will also, hopefully, be fan previews of each men's basketball team UNI plays this winter. There will also be some interviews to watch out for this fall. In addition, there tends to be more recruiting news posted in the supporting members forum. This is just to give you, the posters of PN, a little insight to what this site entails.
So, about the free shirts...the first 5 people to sign up for the supporting member option for Panthernation.com will receive their choice of size in the last 5 remaining Panthernation.com 'No Place Like The Dome' t-shirts. Sizes are limited, so it's going to be first come, first serve. If you want to sign up to be a supporting member, please PM Ames Panther, and let him know you want to sign up. The costs for a one year supporting membership are $50 ($4.16 per month) for adults and $25 for students. Ask anyone who is a supporting member, and they will tell you that it's more about supporting the site, than anything, but the inside info tends to be a fun perk.
