Posts: 4,406 Group: LMZF Moderator Member #250 Joined: May 21, 2008 PSN name potukxystus	sorry should have made it clear subscription is on a totally voluntary basis. the board will(as far as we can control it) always be free to all members. There aren't any advertisement on the boards because some members use the donate button at the bottom of each page and put in what they can so we can pay to have them removed - currently costs about $18 per month but will increase as the membership increases as we get charged by the number of pages that are viewed additional monies over and above the ad-free costs will go to charity, so its doing good as well. its up to members to decide whether they find value in what they find here to subscribe or simply throw in the occasion couple of quid through the donate button hope that clarifies it?

Colonel Posts: 703 Group: X-Ray Member #255 Joined: May 21, 2008	The subscription is a GREAT idea :gr8: I for one will be supporting it whole heartedly ^_^ Can I please make a suggestion that one of the future charities to be considered be rheumatoid arthritis. My wife and I have been looking after my grandfather (but he is more like a father to me) quite intensively over the past 12 months, so its kinda close to our hearts :) I've seen at close quarters the crippling effects the illness has and the actual affects the drugs have on sufferers.......sorry to put a downer on the thread :)

Prestige level 6 Posts: 2,365 Group: Delta Member #290 Joined: May 22, 2008	yeah is it possible to set up a few charity funds and share the excess out between them because sobell house hospice in oxford looked after my mum when she died of cancer 2 years ago and they were amazing kind and generous and a few nurses actually were in tears when my mum passed so it showed how much they care.
