I’m curious Geoff, what is the approximate monthly operating expense of the forum, I think that would give people a better understanding of the monetary requirements that are needed to keep MLU up and running. A membership fee of $20.00 dollars a year works out to approximately $ 1.67 a month per member.
Cheers

 One way of looking at that equation is it is less than half the price of one cup of store coffee per month .Imagine the amount of cups of coffee or tea that have been consumed going through the threads of mlu each year

the best forum EVER!
As a newbie (this is only my second post) I will be visiting paypal next to do my (admittedly little) bit! Geoff you have created space for like minds to share and learn together- which is all that's BEST about the net!
I have been a mere guest for months, but finally took the plunge and have NO DOUBT it's the best $20 I will spend this year! All the best to you and MLU- you ROCK!!! |

You're really missing the point here; whether my costs are $35 per month or $135 per month - USD, BTW - is irrelevant. I've had to pay both extremes and regularly in between. There are domain charges, software charges, bandwidth charges and much else. The point is that I want to make MLU better, and I can't do it by myself. I want to streamline the whole operation and I want to offer you all things which I know you want. For better or worse, having been pensioned off last year I haven't the resources... and part of that is because of the time and money which go into MLU every damned year. As I said before (and no doubt will again), all but a handful of you have gotten a free ride for twelve years. It's been a pleasure and a privilege to bring this unique entity to you, but we can't grow without your help. In short, it's your turn. I can only repeat that MLU doesn't run and fund itself. How much is all of this worth to you? 18,000 posts a year, on average? A cup of coffee a day too much? Entities like ours, so unique in their own right, do not grow on trees. Thanks, Geoff
