I just posted this for another new member, then remembered you'd had questions, too, so here's another quickie for you:
Re: Bold Status -
If you're on a PC or a laptop (I can't speak for iPads, etc. but this may help anyway and other members are always glad to help), look at the very top/beginning of your Demon's Den/Forums list screen above the chat box ("Shoutbox"). The very first line in the white task bar has several site options including a
"Be Bold!" tab. Click it and you should see the page below (copied from my active account). It will explain what being a Bold Member means and the perks that come with the upgrade that's annual, *not* monthly.
As
@Athena said, it's $20 for a whole year and gives you immediate access to more posting functions, ratings, the Bold Members Forum, and unlimited time to edit your posts (it's a 5 min. editor for regular members except in the "Conversations"/private message/pm function where it stays 5 min. even if you're Bold).
I'm so spoiled on the mega-awesome writing/editing software I use for work , esp. as a "chunk" reader, I'm almost blind to correctly proofing my own rough drafts of anything anymore, lol. I change my sentence structure/words around so often I either end leaving half-deleted, sentence fragments in, leaving or leave entire words out. A LOT. Hell, I've probably done it now, but I'm not gonna worry about checking it.
For me, the "Funny button", the "Show the Love" button, and the "Awesome Response" ratings buttons are my personal favorites (there are other fun ones, too), but just having unlimited access to editing/re-editing my own posts is pure gold.
If you're using your cell phone, I have a Android and use Google Chrome on mine (java trolls and all
), so I can only tell you what the Android format should look like (maybe others can help you on what it looks like on other phones/browsers if this doesn't make sense).
On the "Login" page when you first pull up the site, the very first task bar will have 3 options (Front Page, Forums, Members). After "Members" you'll see 3 little, horizontal lines on top of each other. Tap the lines and you should get a drop down menu with four options. One of them is the "Be Bold!" option. Just click it and you're there.
Here's the kind of screen you're looking for. There's "Pay Now" access, and a little info screen if you ever want to "Bold Fairy" someone else. Hope this helps!
