    Donating Membership

    Hey guys I am about to become a donating member and was just curious, now don't get me wrong I am going to donate no matter what the answer is but just curious as to whether there are any benefits other than helping to keep the forums up and running. Thanks in advance.

    I'm not sure you missed that last one, Rev. The 'edit' button is available to all registered members here on HF. It's over on WB that it editing is part of the donating member's perks.
