    If a new member has joined to get the manuals and want them immediately then a fee is not unreasonable. 25 posts AND 3 months if they want them for free is fair too.

    Some of these people have a problem with their Patrol and have turned to the net looking for answers, a lot of us have been there!!

    They want info not post 25 thread replies or whatever, I can understand where they are at.

    We create the problem for the admin here by requesting the minimum posts, they do that get the manual and fix their vehicle. Possibly coming back.

    If they are seen as spammers they get the flick and never return, not really a desired outcome.

    Pay a reasonable fee and the manuals are yours. If they decide to become a forum sponsor then the fee already paid becomes part of that payment.

    If we don't want to see spammers we have to offer them what they want without copping the crap posts as it stands now.

    This forum is now a business and should be run like one. Where income generation and provided services are concerned any way.

    This is my opinion, I don't mean to offend any one. Please don't take it that way.
    Cheers
