I can probably take this on, plus can host it on site as I work at a datacenter  :signLOL:

Can you PM me more details on how its currently running - guessing its a dedicated VPS somewhere?

Cheers

..........good man. I don't mind if we have too have a ''small'' membership charge. :happy2:

Second that, happy to pay a membership fee.

Probably been considered or mentioned but why not charge for putting things in the "For Sale" section, even if it's only a £1 per listing (irrelevant of value or number of items in that 1 listing), it would soon add up. So far this month there are 8 pages of listings alone. No idea how that would be managed or monitored though

Sorry, but I'm not happy to pay a compulsory membership fee. Beyond paying an Internet Provider, I strongly believe that access to all web sites should be free and I don't bother to visit those which charge, whoever they are and whatever they provide.

As far as this site is concerned I consider that I already contribute enough in the form of help to others etc etc not to have to pay for access. Sorry, my view might be unpopular but I'm just being honest about my feelings in this respect.

If it must be done, then the suggestion of a £1 per "For Sale" item listing is a good and fair one, in my opinion.  :happy2:

I can safely say if I was to take it on, itd operate in the way it does now

I.e. donations if hosting needed to be paid for etc.

I dont believe in membership sites, though as RR says, a classified fee is an option if necessary.
