Silver, Gold, Platinum (nahh, lets make it bike related)

[Deej]

As ya’ll know the names of precious metals ‘silver, gold & platinum’ are very common when companies promote various forms of products and services to demonstrate escalating levels service, identification, importance, and prestige.

The PSB Supporter system is no different.

We would like to explore options in the re-branding of the PSB Supporter service to make the levels of subscription motorcycle related.

Lets have a good ol PSB think-tank on the idea.

Please go ahead and propose three names that will differentiate three tiers of service. The only restrictions on your creativity are to keep it bike related, and don’t make it too corny.

Dugy's on the right track, but there isn't an equivelent for the Plat supporter

Needs one in between PSB Rider (Gold)

OR

Go by capacity or engine type;

OR

Stunting (depending on people's view of what's harder)

^ WHS

Not a fan of using racer/stuntor...

gold supporter - PSB Stock Rider (Making inroads)
platinum suporter - PSB Bling Rider (Likes a little more bling in their life)

Time to thaw the brain out with a little coffee....

[GSXR Girl]

I like Dugy's idea best! And reckon JonnyKing's inclusion is cool too.
That gets my vote


Edit.... Think Darkbyte's is probably better but either is cool!!

[Tin Tin]

+1 with Dugy's idea.... we need different names tho for gold/platinum.

Edit: Love the idea of PSB pillion..... Bloody freeloaders lol

[Mockery]

If you call people "Racer" just because they pay more than "riders" it will confuse the issue of who actually does race or not.

Personally i think it would be more beneficial to have the 'bike' feature back under ppl's avatars before worrying about their labels.
I really want to know what people are riding!

Agreed. Hence using stock and bling for gold and platinum. Platinum = gold support with a few bling bits

[Tin Tin]

^^ Totally agree DB... and I love the idea of platinum being more "bling" but I just hate the phrase bling or blinging... just makes me cringe. we need a alternative but similar word...
