I want to be absolutely clear, these benefits do NOT exist. Some are simply misunderstandings, some are just completely made up just for fun.
The only benefits Supporters get are a Supporter only chat room, 10% off SimBoosts, and some early beta testing. Oh and a little green + on our profiles. The most important benefit is knowing we are supporting a game we love to play.
With that disclaimer, here are some of the funnier rumors:

Supporters are able to install robots in Research facilities. Also they can upgrade them while robots are installed. Some players assume this is because the robots in Research buildings are only used to serve Coffee and Cookies.
