$50 per year compared to $30 per month? Big difference.

AB does the forum get money just from people seeing advertisements, or by them clicking on them? I use an adblock on my browser so never see advertisements on any website. You can set websites to show ads and I'm more than happy to turn it off for this forum if it will make a tiny difference? Or will it make no difference anyway because I'm a sponsor?
I'm sorry to hear its all costing too much AB. I don't have much to offer, but I'm always happy to contribute a little extra if the members fee does go up. One thing that I felt bad about was I paid for a members fee in about April last year, however everyone renewed their membership again in August I think, So theoretically I got an extra 5/6 months free. Can't you make some sort of timer on the memberships mate? There has to be some sort of forum plugin that manages that, I'm sure this wouldn't be the first forum that has something like that?
The vendors thread sounds good, but is their any other way to make it more visible/accessible? I don't normally visit it, it's tucked away neatly in that one button, so there is no encouragement for me to visit. Just a suggestion?

Increase the Forum Sponsorship and move the manuals so that only Forum Sponsors have access to them................one of the main reasons that I have given up welcoming new members, is that some of them are only after the manuals and then never hear from them again.
As most of the Forum Sponsors here, I did not join for any reason other than to support you and this great forum.
