Sorry, I was crap at maths at skool, but 1,999 x £10.00 = £19,990.00...not £20,000.00....look after the pounds, the pennies look after themselves!!

In conclusion....doh

I have paid my membership for 2 years now and I intend to continue to pay as long as the forum is alive and kicking.

Excellent forum and great people that take part in putting up threads

I also partly agree with Briggie that non members have limited access and the area that they are allowed to post in is moderated heavily

PS I agree what a w@nker spencerwilliamson is.

BAT21 you have no cause to explain the finacial side of the forum if any body disagrees with the way things are run - bugger off!!!!!

by my calculations, his intelligence + membership =

eminox · 14-06-2010, 21:32

What goes around, comes around. Remember the user SpencerWililams, or a derivative of! When thing's go wrong he'll soon be asking 'how...what' etc....watch and learn Spencer!!

Weel i've been here quite a while as the writing under my avatar shows, and if i were offered back double what i have paid over the years to leave i would refuse it and stay. Most of the time I have been a member i haven't even owned a nissan! I have tried other forums even for cars i have owned and other interests and not stuck with any of them, but this one keeps calling me back. I think the £10 is not just worth while, but a sign of comitment on behalf of the members!

My other theory is that this is a wind up? come on Lacroupade it's you isn't it?

He must be from another 4x4 site.He can't afford the ten bucks as he spends a fortune on repairs !

I just hope the OP is one turd that's on the receiving end of a good flush.
What a short sighted pratt.

the point i was trying to make , is that the original post is visible to all visitors ,if you sign out and then visit the " home page " .... the original post is viewable to all visitors.... it doesnt exactly instill the visitor or any potential members with confidence on joining our great community..... surely non members should not be allowed to post , or if they do , then any post should be vetted .

just my view folks ,it is actually harmfull to the community as it dissuades people from joining .

Bat have you had a look @ his ip address? writes the same way as o old member from afew years back..

I really can't be bothered to go digging, everyone is entitled to an opinion I guess

It is winding up too many members, we all know what the club is about and continue to enjoy it.

Was this the reason why originally we didn't allow people to post unless they were paid up members?

He could be from another 4x4 site, good luck to him

agree 100%
