Important: Site changes!

[Finn]

As you can appreciate, the cost of maintaining this site is not even close to being met by advertising. The shortfall is made up by myself and by donations from very kind, generous and important key members such as Finn, who without his generous undertakings, the site would have to shut down.

However, due to the financial crisis, I am struggling to meet all the costs so after much thought, I have decided that the only way to keep the site going is to introduce an annual membership fee. Now this will not be compulsory and you will still be able to view the site as a non-member, you just won't be able to have access to things like, PM, photo libraries and of course posting in forums.

But don't be concerned, this will be a very small fee but it will help keep the site going. It may even allow us to offer you additional features and special offers from our advertisers.

More on this will be released shortly.

I appreciate your support.

This was much funnier when I was logged in as SpankMe.

Sounds good Spank ... I think its a well thought out way forward.

Why don't you create a poll to gauge the views of members?

My personal opinion is that, provided it is a nminal fee, it would be a good idea.

Why do a poll for something that should be happening anyway ... I am a member of other sites who have paying and non-paying members and think its a great idea.

Suicide hotline is now an 0900 number, calls cost 5.00 per min (plus GST) Children, ask the bill payer first before calling.

For those of you still trying to figure it out, I logged on this morning and found I was SpankMe. Naturally I took advantage of the situation.

So I wonder how much the annual fee is going to be.

[Mikkel]

So you mean you don't want my money anyway? Cool, I'll go get drunk and get some hookers then... after all, gotta enjoy being at the fringe of civilisation for once - Sydney as it is.
