A Lifetime Member!?!

I was just made a TUG Lifetime Member! I am humbled and grateful! Thanks!
I really enjoy being a member, learning new things about timesharing and helping others learn about timesharing. I am also active on the TUG Facebook page - a little to active on Facebook DH says!

Nice. How did you manage 10 referrals ? I talk to plenty of people about tug who say they will or have joined but only have 3 referrals. My wife even joined to help me out.

well earned IMO...one doesnt always have to get 10 referrals....contributing to the site in a volunteer capacity for enough time also warrants a lifetime membership!

most (if not all) moderators are lifetime members at this point! or should be unless I dropped the ball somewhere.

Do resort reviews count as volunteer capacity ? If so, how many ?

no, but we offer membership extensions for reviews submitted thus making your membership free to renew every year if you submit enough!

For the 15+ years I’ve been on TUG, I think I only paid for membership twice. Once when signing up and one other time. All other membership extensions have been through doing reviews (2 or 6 months), extension from contributing in another form like updating an article or extension from referrals. I think you get a six month extention for a referral. After 10, then it is lifetime. Which is how I ultimately got TUG Lifetime Member. I’ve referred a few people to TUG, but I have no idea how I got some of the early referrals. I think some people just randomly put in my TUG name when they joined. Then most of the later referrals came from people watching my YouTube videos.

@moonstone , congrats Diane, I'm so happy you are a lifetime member....well deserved

How many lifetime members are there?

 

[TUGBrian]

that is a fantastic question, I had to do some digging to figure it out!

there have been exactly 170 lifetime memberships ever given out on TUG in its history....though id have to go thru them 1 by 1 to see how many are still active or similar! Most are usernames just about everyone would recognize!

a brief glance showed a good number of them not logging in in quite some time!
