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:

^^^ But your happy to get free advertising in your forum signature?

....It's merely a link to my Facebook page where you can enjoy my music and photos. Nothing is sold from that Facebook link which benefits myself financially.


MAT ED30:
I think a pound for each listing in the for sale section is a good idea it's only a £1

....And only £1 less from what someone is profiting from selling an item for. So it's a kind of gentle 'tax'. Pity that the feckin' govn'ment doesn't tax people for £1 per transaction rather than 20% vat!

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

Alex/Steve

I don't have many posts currently, but I will joining the MK6 fold in a few weeks with a Golf R, so I'll be spending more time around here. I'd be happy to helpout if any assistance is required. I'm an IT Manager by trade with tonnes of LAMP experience.

I know one of the current site sponsors who I'm sure will vouch for me if needs be.

So if you need a hand, either now or in the future, ping me an email - I'm more than happy for the current Admin team to pass on my email addy.

Greeners:
I don't remember Steve asking for suggestions of how to make money for the forum??  :confused:

He has asked for people to come forward if they feel they are able to take on the Admin role as he has his hands full!  :rolleye:
