right well we can all see Chet is crap at public relations.
Basically the site and domain name cost money to run. Works out roughly at 110 quid a year for the name and webspace we currently run, we will no doubt need more webspace. I use most of the web space for the tech article pictures etc. Its also includes the galleries etc.
Currently Chets been forking out for this all on his own but due to personal commitments and the lack of disposable income that goes along with that he simple doesn't have the cash to spare.
So Jonnyboy and myself have donated the spare cash we have and its still not quite enough.
We have tried to avoid making it a paying forum. Or limiting it if you don't pay. for example Cliosport, if your not a paid up member you can only post 20 times a day and no more than one post per 3 minutes. This forum allows unlimited posts and theres no post delay.
The site was created to get away from the more how shall I put this 'Max Power' style sites. I think a lot of you would agree the site is more than usefull and it would be a shame for it to go to waste.
So if everyone donates say £1 then the site will be quite comfortable and we will be able to stay running. But more will not be knocked back and will further help to improve things.
So motto for the weekend is leave the chippy send the fiver to us, we help your heart and waistline and you keep your site going.
Also not all of us have Paypal, I don't, so if you wanna give something then PM Chet to sort out another way to donate some cash.
Thankyou. |

^^ What chris said. Being sick/stressed/tired and posting at 2am was perhaps the wrong idea |
