Preemptive renewal strikes before membership expires.

If you will, bear with me here:

Background:

When the whole subscription thing came up about a year ago, I was overseas. I couldn’t read the SDMB due to network restrictions, but I e-mailed the staff, and got my membership reserved and took care of business. I signed up for the two year option, and everything was good-to-go.

Issue at hand:

I plan on being overseas again in a year or so, which oughtta be for a six - eight month stretch (Late Fall '05 - Summer '06). This window will definitely span my membership expiration date (Feb/Mar), but I don’t want to expire [sub]in more ways than one![/sub]. So, just as I’m packing my bags and getting ready to leave, can I “pre-renew” my membership to prevent the lapse?

Hopefully, my proactiveness makes Cecil smile.

If you go to your CP, click on Paid Subscriptions, and see a figure there plus the Order button – then yes, you should be able to renew your sub now, for the system to credit you up to 2007.
