For anybody outside of the US and Canada who has had trouble using PayPal to pay for a patron badge, we now support crypto for payments.
We don’t have a cart for this yet, but we have a wallet address ready to go. If you’re also not familiar with Crypto, please deeply educate yourself in the context of your locality before going this route.
DM me or send an email, if you’re interested.
@boston_nwo The goal is participation, we’re looking for 100 patrons this year.
Just a thought, something for the DevOps incident playbook:
And thanks for jumping in and helping out to answer questions, concerns, etc.
@the-captain I like this idea a lot but I don’t have a lot of options on NodeBB to do something special like this. There was a 3rd party plugin but then it feel behind updates and is no longer usable.
I would have to write something myself and I don’t have time at the moment. So in the meantime, you’ll just have to encourage your gaming buddies to donate. 
Hi all just catching up on the badges. It looks like at worst, I’ll be updating once a month. I would hope to apply the badges faster than that but it seems that monthly is a goal I can actually achieve.
@johnson73 said in Patron perks, redux:
@djensen Would this be a Discount to those that Sponser your Page? Gold, Sliver & Bronze Patrons? Or all?
I think that’s up to you.
Are any of the sponsors willing to offer a small discount to patrons?
We’re finally on a version of NodeBB that allows us to implement some new ideas around perks.
Here are the three options:
I would like Gold to get all three. Silver two of the three and bronze just one. And it’s the same for everyone.
Here’s my initial thought:
Gold: all four
Silver: badge, signature
Bronze: badge
I’d actually like another option to play with.
Thoughts? Ideas?
