Well, I have a lifetime membership here and I don't plan on deserting it. ;) Even if the PC one is great, I don't think it can replace the little "family" I feel I have here. Maybe it's knowing that not EVERY single consultant sees me and my silly commentary, I feel comfortable here. We'll have to wait and see what the PC one is like, but I'm still keeping CS bookmarked and up there with my FB addiction. :D

How do you become a lifetime member?
 
pay the $20. I bought a lifetime right away because I found a lot of value in what was here. Yes, I could have tried it for $5 for a year, but figured the long-term investment was worth it.

I also still send my own newsletters that I pay for. Not that happy with the one on our website...
 
ChefSuccess will only grow and reach new heights! If they install an interesting feature, I will work my hardest to bring it here. However, I can almost certainly tell you that most corporate communities are stale and boring! Here we have flexibility and family. Also one thing the corporate community will never give you is anonymity. They will always know who you are.If anything the new community will help us gain new membership as surely we will be linked to :)
 
I am a lifetime member of CS and won't be fully leaving either. Greg is right- any corporate forums I have been on haven't been as helpful and have been boring because they have to have rules.

Hmmmmm. I don't like stale & boring. I prefer the bag of mixed nuts we have here.:cool:

Can't remember if it's still an option...have to ask Greg, the administrator, about it. But a while ago he had a special offer where you pay a higher one-time fee (still wasn't too bad, and definitely worth it!) and you'd be a lifetime member.

Yup Gold membership is always lifetime. :)
