    Lightbulb Access to those rare and extremely valuable patrol manuals!

    G'day Forum Trendsetters!

    I personally think that AB should only allow access to those rare and valuable Patrol manuals to Forum Sponsors members "only".

    The reason i say this is, the information sourced in those rare Patrol manuals are extremely valuable information. That information should only be shared amongst those loyal members whom are dedicated in supporting this fantastic forum. That way it stops the users & squeezers from obtaining this hard to come by information.

    As previously advised to AB, we live in a world where "some people" just love take and give nothing in return. Hence the (users & squeezers!) tag.

    PS, What are the forum members thoughts on this issue?

    Regards,

    Paul (RLI)

    I agree with you 100% that the manuals should be moved to a Forum Sponsors only section and Andy is well aware that a lot of members agree with your view as this has topic has been discussed many times before.

    At the end of the day its Andy's call on how and by whom the manuals are accessed and we all should respect his decisions

    Cheers

    Yes, I agree. But of late the issue has been people stealing the address and posting it elsewhere so those people can just bypass the system.. Quite sneaky really..

    I agree to an extent. AB is a good man for giving us the opportunity to have access to these manuals. I have also in a lot of research discovered how secretive some people can be with information although the technology isn't new. An old saying comes to mind "Give like you expect nothing in return". While people may come here just for manuals the ones that stay and make this place what is and also the friends AB has made through here I would say is a very rewarding return.

    Great idea.

    I'd be interested to know if there's any trends in member usage once they crack 25 posts and download the manuals. Do they come back or po?

    One would not be receiving financial gain for the manuals as he would only be receiving financial gain because a member becomes a Forum Sponsor who will benefit from the below

    You will see no advertisement on the forum. The forum will run faster and pages will load quicker.

    The sidebar will not be shown either. Just the normal original design of the forum.

    An exclusive forum sponsor logo will appear under your profile.

    You will have the ability to create your very own custom title.

    Your Private Message (PM) storage will increase from 200 messages to 2000.

    You will be able to have a maximum of ten lines in your signature.

    Best of all, the forum will run faster for you without pesky advertisements.



    No mention of having access to the manuals *L*

    If Nissan want to get him for copyright material I'm sure they would've done it by now
