Hit me up Billyboy. I've never used Skype but it sounds domineering. Do I just sit on cam while you make me feel inadequate?________________________________________ |

 That'll be me checking out aswell, had some good old chuckles on here over the years, but this signals the end to my time over on here, you'll probably find me over on Tyresmoke instead  So, peace out to y'all. ________________________________________ Pete Sims - R.I.P buddy!PS£ id - onenashy |

Right.. time to jump in while I still have a voice with which to post...My particular disagreement started a while ago and - as others have tried to point out - it's not the amount (yes I can afford £5), it's that awkward little bugger called principle. And here's my principle: After years of contributing and offers to help from some of us - overhauling the site during its many wilderness years with an MIA owner, to wanting to contribute towards hosting, bandwidth - it's a pretty low blow to now ask us to pay to "contribute". I class myself very much in the fringes of "helpful" compared to others  but I would argue the only reason there's something to even monetise is thanks to all the questions answered, knowledge imparted and the technical FAQs people created, for free...people who are now expected to pay for the privilege?! Some of us were waiting to see whether there'd even be a token gesture and (as an example) anyone who'd contributed a FAQ would be offered a year's complimentary membership, but that didn't happen - no real surprise there, given that it didn't even occur that it was a bit mean to expect the Admins to pay to do their job (until they kicked up a fuss - and rightly so)!! So there, I've said my piece. 1st World Problems, eh? TLDR It's the content that is the "value" in a forum, and therefore gives you something you can charge money for, not the code it's running on. ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
