I know its not about money.... but how do you stop idiots asking questions...when the answers are right in front of them?????

ok lets put it this way...say you put all fix's links etc..etc.. in a paid members area...how many ppl do you think would sign up and gather the info,,, even tho it would save them a couple of hunred quid a year in cable fees....

Other - get rid of the cable section completely as its more bloody trouble than its worth.

River-Rat · 01-12-08, 02:20 PM

easy

i did a page that said if you post rubbish , you posts will be removed, if you bump posts just to add your score, you post will be removed, in worse case i said if u spam the board to get you count up, u will be banned for 12 hrs

also people joining ALSO helps the site with ip addresses

as it was proven last week? one guy trying to slate a shop here and was found out using the same ip as 2 people

i'd pay for a ''vip'' section... and to be fair, i'm up for donating to this site, the oly thing stopping me is the fact u have to use paypal... and u never know who is gonna see ur personal details...

hoppy89 · 01-12-08, 02:24 PM

Its not the cable section thats the problem....its half the retards that use it.... (Maybe myself included) lol

dont think u can stop the posts from ppl just wanting the info but think its a night mare for the mods and admins perhaps a members only area even if the have to make a donations to the site to get access that way they can read the post and get the infomation they want and the site get help towards the running cost ?

only the admin will see, and i doubt he'll do anything with the info

A vip section maybe a bad idea for the admin as they will be seen to make a profit from activities that are...well....illegal and that might get this whole place closed down.
