Go up one level in this thread



I can possibly pay $20.00 per year for having this forum up.

The issue is that you are not considering that there are some countries where
people really have to work too hard to get $20.00 US. That means no movies, no
Amazon books, no first line computers, cheap internet or public internet, no
fancy dinners with girlfriend/wife, low use of car or no car, etc.

They will not be able to benefit from this forum because somebody wanting to put
a price tag for elite membership. The ideas in this forum are priceless and they
are not only for the people that can pay for reading them. Putting a membership
price in this forum will possibly kill the forum itself.

What would happen when the key posters of this forum go away because they do not
pay for any reason?

How would you attract new members that love computer chess field?

Please let us get reasonable. I can believe that some of the members of this
forum can get computer hosts that run a forum like this.

ICD has done a great job for hosting this site, but they seem to be struggling.
Let us offer help and creative solutions instead of money.

Mario Antonio.
