I've only been here three weeks or less and I've learned so much I'd be a fool not to subscribe. O.K. Vicky, name your price and give me an address and the check will be in the mail.

Hi Dennis,

I'm glad GM has been helpful! I'm thinking probably around $20/yr for subscriptions, once it goes official. The consensus seems to be that any more will tick folks off, so I'm kind of settling on that, at least for now until I've got time to do the necessary research on something like this.

I can take either Paypal or credit cards at gotmead@gotmead.com using Paypal (they'll let you do it either way, with them or using a major credit card).

make sure to put 'GM subscription' on there so you'll remember later! (and so I will know its that and not for the e-book or something else...)

To all y'all: Thanks. I'm glad everyone seems to be willing to help the site hold its own by subscribing. That will help a lot, if everyone gets on. If just a few do, we'll gain a month or so. If everyone kicks in, we'll gain a lot more time, which gives me time to push more ads to those who *can* kick in more (and for them its business, not pleasure like for y'all).
 
Wow, I echo the "gone a few days..." sentiment.

For what it's worth, I really liked the new format. My laptop only has a 12 inch screen, but still for a guy who usually avoids anything but the forum, I really like the integrated platform.

As to the subscription. I'm all for it. I know that I haven't contributed my fair share in response (and thanks) for the community of wonderful people I've become part of here. I intend to correct that, and I truly believe that this community is well worth preserving through our combined contributions.

I'm working on a wrapped layout that will have larger text, 'cause I think the main gripe is that old eyes (and I can relate, mine are pretty bad) can't read it easily. Personally, I just reduce my resolution, because the new hi-res screens seem to make *everything* too hard to see.....LOL
 
Vicky,

Making out a $20 subscription check right now. Alright everybody time to throw down the Gauntlet. No promises to do so etc., I challenge every member to pull out their checkbook (or use paypal) and make out a check to Vicky for $20 as they read this. I also challenge everybody on this forum to not make or read another post until they have committed their $20. When you do... post here to keep this link at the top of the new postings.

Well done Guys!!! How 'bout the rest of you?

Wrath.....I took your challenge of $20....and raised it by $10...I figure that over the past year, I have AT LEAST learned as much as I have from "Brew Your Own" or "Zymurgy"....albeit the informatiom that I have gathered here is a little more focused in the scope of knowledge.

That being said, I sent $30 to Vicky...she has done as phenomenal job at making this site.

I second the post from Wrath....c'mon...we've all learned something from this site....follow Wrath's link , and commit a small $20 (or more)! Send it via Paypay!

C'mon....this a small group...currently 801 members. Can you honestly say that you have received at least a "book"s worth of infomation from reading this forum? C'mon...you KNOW that this forumis worht a book's price. C'mon...the webwench needs soe help to keep things running!

As Always...Thanks!

Oh, and Vicky... thanks for the email, only too glad to help out. I've gotten a few emails thanking me for starting the challenge and I appreciate all the support everyone is showing toward funding the site. Keep posting on this thread when you've ponied up your subscriptions, bought Miriam's ebook, or would like to provide a funding challenge of your own. Also if you've already donated let us know... don't be shy. Time to start shaming the high posting slackers with their grubby little hands in Vicky's purse. Just kidding ;)
Do we have any Wiccan's on the board or voodoo practitioners who can curse the batches of those who don't pony up? I think that'll be the next step. >:D

Another $20.00 donation. Good work, Wrathwilde.

Vicky, would you accept this suggestion: every donation of $10.00 or more gets you the St. Winston's Metheglin e-book?
