Kevin Bresnahan Posted Friday at 11:25 AM Report Posted Friday at 11:25 AM I would think that if there were some sort of benefit to subscribing, there might be more subscribers. I subscribe to another forum that has ads. Subscribers don't see the ads. Maybe not pertinent here, but an idea to think about. Since this is a music forum, maybe have some kind download available only to subscribers? Quote
Dan Gould Posted Friday at 01:01 PM Report Posted Friday at 01:01 PM Right now the subscriber model is only a pledge for a certain amount that pledgers were presumably going to donate in 2025 anyway. I think ideally the subscriber donation should be lower but that necessitates more of us. Not sure we get to 38. Quote

jazzcorner Posted Friday at 06:36 PM Report Posted Friday at 06:36 PM (edited) I would prefer to repair the donation tab so I can mail a donation when I have free cash which is not alway the case. For this year a little additional "St. Nick" is possible. ;-]]  Done!!! Happy holidays W.B. Edited Friday at 06:45 PM by jazzcorner Quote

I'll look into that some more. That was nice when it was working. Anyway, my PayPal is b3groover@hotmail.com Thanks! I'm in Japan - tried sending direct the other day, but PayPal won't let me. The Donations tab would seem to be the answer ... Quote
ghost of miles Posted 22 hours ago Report Posted 22 hours ago On 12/17/2024 at 8:38 AM, Niko said: happy to subscribe as well but I would strongly advise against making this anything more than a voluntary option... registering here is already quite an achievement these days it seems - so we shouldn't add a second hurdle of having to pay 50$ after making it through the registration before one can start posting... at the very least, I would give people the first 100 posts for free (wonder who the last newbie was to make it past 100 posts... I bet it was some time ago) Strongly agree with Niko about not requiring a subscription to post. I'm happy to commit to a $50/yr model and to set up an automatic annual deduction, but as Niko points out, it's already difficult enough getting any new blood here without adding a mandatory user fee for anybody who wishes to contribute to the discussion.
