Giving back to Dantom

Since getting back into Byond lately I have been frankly shocked at how many of the people on my friends list are playing byond games fairly often, but are not members. So I have decided that a good idea would be for the programmers of byond to add incentives for people being members. I don't mean ranking, just if they are members they get some small, non gamebreaking bonus. I think this would be a great way to give back to Dantom for creating the system that we all obviously play

#3 Tiberath:  

*points to the Benefactor list*

As you can see, I'm all for it <.<
That top 5(6 if you include the hidden DeathAwaitsU) list alone has probably donated roughly 1500 - 2000 to BYOND alone in the form of Memberships and extra donations.

I know that it exists, and also that some programmers have added member features into their games, but I was thinking if a lot more games did this, we could possibly get more for Dantom, which is a good thing.

#1 Tiberath:  

client.IsByondMember() exists for that reason. And many of the older BYOND programmers actually do this, I believe.
