blut wump said:rvn how can you say that? As a non-Plat you get full access to the fora and don't pay a penny.
RvN said:Big deal...Theres plenty of other BB sites around that dont charge (for example) to preview posts when you click on the link. And to the dude who reckons i must be 10 for not realising this about Elite(actually using a comment like that makes YOU sound 10 mate), its more to do with the fact i dont spend THAT much time on here, and have only reallt cottoned onto the capitalistic flavour since the whole Satch/Indy/Radar thing recently. But hey, if you guys are happy to pay it then i guess its all good eh?.
As you were.
cboogsrun said:George any way to make the membership more affordable. Or is the amount of money suppose to deter certain people away. Kinda like uppity bars do when they charge $5 for a beer, its to keep the human garbage out of their bar.
majutsu said:I remember you saying the same thing before. If you check your karma messages you will see the same thing about two weeks ago, where I said to you "It's good to wake up, isn't it?". You're just not very quick minded.
What I don't understand is why you keep complaining. You're not paying anything and neither am I, so why are you whinining? Go elsewhere if it bothers you. And I go to all the other forums as well as this one once in a blue moon. I don't see how the economic opportunism of this board affects you in any way, shape or form except for the dashed idealism of a ten-year-old.

George Spellwin said:No other site online has the 5,647,313 posts that elite has in our archive. There is more bodybuilding and steroid info here that in any other spot in the world.

George Spellwin said:Actually, just to clarify, the Chairman Membership costs $1200 a year, not $900 and this is a small fraction of what sponsors pay. Only about 34 members were invited to join and you must be personally invited to be a Chairman Member. About half of those 34 invited, I deemed so important to the growth and future development of the site that I gave them a discount certificate to take $300 off the first year's price for being a charter Chairman Member. I really need their support for helping make strategic contributions to the future direction of the site. I value all of our members, both Platinum, regular, and Chairman. Without you, the site would not be here, so everyone's support in incredibly important. If you were fortunate enough to be invited, please consider it an honor and my personal recognition of how much I value your being here - that stands true if you decide to upgrade or if you decide to continue to enjoy the outstanding features that you get with your Platinum Membership.
cboogsrun said:Hey George,
I have a 4 yr old little girl that sometimes is a bit too helpful will house cleaning. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the letter. If you could email me at my ef account the info again, I'll take a closer look. To be honest when I saw the $900, I just set it on the table and didn't give it another look. If it truly helps the site grow, and not people's wallets, I'll take a closer look into it. PS my address has changed and I need to update my personal info, but can't find that section. Thanks

natty said:Hate to go against the big guy here but if you have deemed some people so important to this site. Why should they have to pay for anything if there helping your business grow?
tiggerizme said:I didn't get any message like this. He must not like me because I probably would have went for it.
list of members who are eligible? I thought there was only a set few who were invited? this makes it sound like a lot more people can get itGeorge Spellwin said:Sure I like you. We have a master list of all the members who are eligible. Please call us and we can let you know if you are on that list. Phone (888) 613-8959 also found at the bottom of every page.

natty said:I bet anybody who can afford it is on the list.
George Spellwin said:Simple, we need the money.
And in exchange, we want to reward our best members with the ultimate in features and prestige. I also want their feedback on how this place is run. There are 12 opinions on how I should do things from every 10 members. If someone has invested $1200 a year to support this site and to get the best experience that the site can offer, then I think his opinion should carry a little more weight. That's not to say that everyone here is not important.

Destroyer1986* said:Since this is the AAS discussion board I think many people would have better ideas of spending $900, rather than becoming a chairman of the board. LOL.

cboogsrun said:I'm BOOGS nice to meet you sir. I would imagine people who have spent the most on this board probably got the letters. I have bought ebooks and some other shit. I would agree with you 100% about who got selected. I have applied knowledge on these subjects not much text knowledge. There are some bros here, who have biology degrees and med degrees who would be far more suited with the prestigeous COB membership. Because I don't believe I was picked for my ability to contribute knowledge to other members, I won't be spending $900 a year on a powertrip membership. You can knock me, my feelings won't get hurt. LOL
