Legacy lifetime member badge

[bolcien]

Several years ago, I purchased a lifetime membership (Best money I ever spent). Now with lifetime memberships gone (maybe for now?) I was wondering if it was possible, to have a Life time badge on our (the lifetime members) game mod posts and forum posts. Instead of just saying premium like it does now have it say 'Lifetime', perhaps in an orange color that pops out.

This isn't something that is particularly easy to do. The forum only knows if you're Premium or not, it doesn't have the context beyond that. The other thing that occurs to me is that you do not have any different benefits to current Premium members so a separate badge may be confusing.

As a lifetime member, I agree with Picky. A separate badge would be confusing.

 

As a lifetime member, I agree with the OP. It's the best money I ever spent.

Yup, best bargain ever!  Which is why I don't want a badge rubbing other peoples' faces in it:)

"Hey, look at me! I got this real cheap and you didn't!"

Please, no.

I already find the double "Premium" mention under the avatar as it is right now a bit much (hopefully, that will be replaced with a rank  or something when the new forum sets in), that I think having someting saying "Lifetime" just because you happen to get it before the option was removed it's like  @dizietemblesssma said best above:

Like I briefly mentioned, to add something to show or reward how long you're a member of the site/forum, a rank on your profile based on how long you're a member would be better than having a badge just because you bought a lifetime premium membership.

And yes, that was a good deal.

I don't particularly care, but I'm not above a little "I got this before they took it away and now you can't have it :^)" posturing, either.
