Membership?

[JM53 BEL]

I think this is an excellent site, the hints and tips and knowledge gained is excellent, I am curious to whether or not theres a membership available, i was a member on another site and one of the perks was you had a trade account when you became a fully paid member, which meant you could by direct from dealership genuine items at trade cost. As well as the trade part you also got the standard members pack which included, photo ID, Sticker, info, tax disc holder and for an extra fiver a nice branded steel keyring. This made that site extremely populer as membership was £15 + £2.50 for keyring, bonuses such as discount on items an certain stores etc, you could also buy the usual items such as branded hoodies, baseball caps, t-shirts with club info an logo.

 

Has this route been thought about as i would happily pay for membership especially with trade account, i am sure other members on here would also! They also did a lower rate membership which allowed full access to site if there are restricted sections for paid members only.

 

What is your views on this? & also interested in what admin an mods think? I think one person needs to be recognised and thanked for his effort and help and that is Paul.h he does a great job helping users.

 

The good thing about paid members is it helps with advertising, running costs, organised meets, show events etc! I understand some people would not be interested in going to events but some would be,

 

just thought i would put this out there to find out peoples opinions and thoughts from the people who run the site.

Also there were extras like for sale sections, traders etc, was just an idea.

Your good ideas are not being ignored, any changes need to come from the site owner but the problem initially would be having some more volunteers with the time and contacts to implement the extras and if money starts to change hands then accounts would need to be kept.
