Hey George if you make this place a pay site. You can delete accounts of people like theron and it will cost him again to join and you just delete him again. Plus I think it would get rid of the immature posts for people that are to young for credit cards. I think it would be the perfect solution to our problem (not to mention you would get some decent revenues). IP: Logged |

It would also be breaking the rules and conditions of PSI or whoever rents out these boards. Besides, everyone would run off to musclemag and these boards would be completly empty. [This message has been edited by MP3 (edited June 22, 2000).] IP: Logged |

I totally agree. For some reason this board has gotten retarded in the past month. I think for the most part we are all adults on here and I would have no problem putting up a credit card number if it meant weeding out the idiots on here. IP: Logged |

I hate to say it, bit its not a bad idea anymore. Obviously people on this board find it very enticing to reply to the dumbfucks instead of IGNORING. What do you guys think? Slopain IP: Logged |

George could very easily make this a pay site. The adults here should have no problem putting up 20 bucks or so to join. mp3 is pissed because he is too young to have a credit card and that would weed him out. As far as people saying we don't want our information in a database because it is incriminating there iss nothing illegal about talking about AS. I think it is the perfect solution. And in regards to everyone running off to muscle mag it would only be the people like mp3 and theron. The serious people would stay I know I would [This message has been edited by sammythebull (edited June 22, 2000).] IP: Logged |

I will pay. I do like to keep a little bit of privacy, so maybe you could let us mail in the money. We could give you our email address and perfered username. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Good idea fish people who wish for privacy could mail checks, money whatever. And George could make non registered users able to veiw the boards so he can still have a large audience for ad revenues, but they won't be able to post, PERFECT! IP: Logged |

I don't know. Making it a pay site just to get rid of a couple smoes would seem counter productive in my mind. This site being free is probably the reason most of us if not all are here in the first place. I ain't old enough to own my own credit card so does that mean I should just disappear like my ass was never even here? Sure it would make things alot easier dealing with people who do stupid shit, but we'd lose alot of people that have legit questions and answers for training because they don't got the money or are too young to have a credit card. ------------------ IP: Logged |

I would be willing to bet the problem is being handled as we speak...sometimes it seems like nothing is being done when in fact it takes time ...... no one is responding to the stupid threads this morning and that is a start....I assure you it will clear up...........later IP: Logged |

Fish's idea of people who don't have credit cards mailing in their money would solve your problem. And are you seriously telling me you couldn't come up with 20 bucks. If so then you sure as hell can't afford gear. Like I said in my earlier post make the board so non registered users can read it. I promise you every question you have has already been asked you could search and read just not post. I'm telling you it would be perfect. IP: Logged |

I think that is a pretty good idea, only because I kind of get tired of reading posts of people who are not serious about making a better body. Don't make it too much, I got college tuition next year. Everybody who has been here for a while would definitly pay the small fee because we know what a great board it is. IP: Logged |

Hehe I bet George is loving this. His eyes probably have little dollar signs in them. Good idea though Sammy with making it so that anyone can read but only people that pay can post. IP: Logged |

I wouldn't pay to post on this or any other board, if he started charging I would go to the underground, or varix, or renegade boards. If u think I am worthless as far as contributing info to this board, then that is your opinion and I'm sure many agree with me. LP IP: Logged |

good way to resolve the little kids and most of the stooped posts. but i don't think most of us would pay for somthing we have used for so long for free, i wouldn't pay for it. not to piss old george off. but you must have money to burn if you put a post like this up IP: Logged |

you guys that don't have credit cards can mail money in and yes guys like theron could also but when they get their account deleted it would get expensive for them to keep mailing money and getting new usernames. and to you cheap guys I can't belive you wouldn't chip in 20 bucks or so , George has done an awesome job building this site and I know me and many others would be happy to chip in 20 bucks to keep the integrity of the board top notch. And another thing it takes time to keep these boards up and working and to moderate them and answer all the stupid repetive questions we all ask every day, they deserve some compensation for their troubles.
