Why the membership costs?

Yup, I'm asking why it costs? You don't have sponsors? Crying or Very sad

I'm not connected to the site, so I can't answer "officially" but I can tell you two things :-

- This is the best source of knowledge and discussion on FS9 on the whole web.

- It is without exception the best $5 I ever spent.

So come on board, and you'll see what I mean.

Jyrki2,

What are you trying to say, that the $5 is too much. 😳 😳 😳 😳

I agree with the The-GPS-Kid completely, it is the best $5 I ever spent.

I disagree.
It's the SECOND best 5$ (£2.80 odd) I've spent.
The best was for BMX Simulator on the Spectrum!
But the forums were lousy for that game.

Broadband, high speed servers etc. all cost more than you think.
The $5 doesn't cover it all by any means but it does help the site defray some of the costs so we can keep both the forum and the downloads up and running.
You can use Pay-Pal or write to the owners of the site and see what arrangements can be made as to payment.

$5???

$5??!!!

I see people drop 4 bucks for a beer at a Div I hockey game..a beer!!! This aint no Guiness or Bass..but The King of Beers,,Budweiser! I'm not going to get into a what beer is better battle (even though I would drink my own urine before putting away a Dud, er Bud.

I don't think $5 is too much to ask when it comes to this site. Ask a question, and you get an answer within an hour most times. It's well worth it.

Honestly, I didn't pull any strings to get in free, it happened that in october of 03, the site was still sort of new, and I guess, from what i hear from flyaway, they were going to start charging after the 10,000th person or something along those lines...I actually thought of delaying my membership cause i wasnt so sure of the site back then...

OK thats one beer less this weekend for me then Wink

It happened 3 times now I forgot to put my name on a post, and rather than teaching myself the discipline of always including my name in the message body, I'd prefer to make it easier on myself and by default have my name on the left 🙂

It is still not to late for both of you to make a donation of $5 and set an example for all those others who had the good fortune to join when it was free!! 😂 Every little helps.

davec,

Not to worry, I have made my donation (some time ago), as I have mentioned earlier in this thread.
