    I remember once i donated and nothing happened. And like 3 months later i donated again and I was immediately upgraded to contributing member. Luck of the timing I guess. If you stay positive, you'll get your dues.

    Yeah. I was lucky to get a quick upgrade, but it probably is all about the timing.

    Also: make sure you clearly label yourself in the designated space when you donate

    I wonder how much it costs to get a custom "Member" title. I've seen Clutch's Crew and Los Vollos Astros or something like that. Also seen Rookie.

    Yea I donated about a week before the Dwight signing, and no change yet. I sent an email message through the system, but might try a regular email to clutch and see if that works. I plan to donate mores soon also

    I left him a visitor message with my transaction number and got upgraded in like 2 days. This was a month or so after I donated.

    The tip jar is a sound financial investment and solution for all the economic problems in this country. Just compare Houston's economy with the rest of the country's if you do t believe me.

    Basically this for me. Maybe it's better to do it in the midst of the offseason because there's less stuff for clutch to do.
