I've been trying to figure out how all this works with backers/non-backers and forum use and such...and either the info isn't very easy to find or I'm just totally missing it!

To be a backer and have full forum access here what do I need? Do I just need to spend $5 on something in the store on this site? Do I need a package with a ship and everything? Can I buy $5 of UEE credits without having a ship or anything?

I don't have the money to purchase a package right now, but $5 would be doable :)

Also, for those of us who want to participate and support the game, but don't have the financial resources, it would be awesome if it was clear that we only need to pledge $5 to get on the forums...I imagine other folks like me have not been participating because we assumed we needed a $45 package just to post ;)

Thanks for any response, feel free to PM, and apologies if I just missed something super obvious!

Cheers, Raven
