I fail to see why its against the spirit of the internet "something for nothing". There have been more internet Millionaires created off the "Free Internet"!!!!!! than hot dinners lateley.
If £10 is too much for the entertainment and knowledge that can be gained off this site I feel we are probably better off without you. Keep up the good work, I shall continue. Phil J

how we could prevent it being abused


1) Link the IP address of a member to his username as he logs in.

2) Any futher logins must then be from that same IP address/Domain.

3) All other IPs are blocked to logins.

Works with dynamic or static IPs?

The problem of course would come when you have users accessing from two locations at the same time, ie hubby at work, wife at home?

You could also have it so that any old/in use IPs clear down when a new login occurs. Members would be rather relectant to share then, if at anytime there login could be blown away and they are unable to get back in Smile

Of course, if the logins occur from the same locaction/address/host, it wouldn't be a problem, and all would be work hunky dory.. allowing multple logins just fine.

There must code to do this already, as many websites already use this principle. So the words "source code" and "pinch" come to mind Smile

Just a thought?

I have joined recently as I am thinking of buying a camper. I will not be subscribing, if it was a subscription site when I first looked at it I would not have bothered, there are already too many demand's for my money and I have to draw the line somewhere.
Another thing, I have loked at the main thead on this change and the one about political corectness because they seemedpopular and I am not impressed by the apparant ill-manners of some folk. Members should not be openly rude to others who have made a differnt choice as it is up to the indovidual, surely.
I wish you well but I will go elsewhere.

If only 31 out of 66 say they will subscribe, and those 66 are the more active members and therefore the ones most likely to subscribe, it doesn't look good for the future of the forum does it?
And to those that take offence at a differing opinion to their own, I am only putting in my opinion because I care enough about the loss of a great site to do so.

As a newcomer, I will probably not subscribe until I have seen how useful the site is.

Oh, and it will need to be made faster (and changed so that you don't have to scroll down EVERY page to see anything useful).

I'm going to give it a go for a year - think the site contributes a huge amount of knowledge and goodwill in the motorhome community. Sometimes you need to be prepared to put your hand in your pocket - so long as it's not too deep !

I would urge those who feel they will not subscribe to at least try a year for £10. It gives Nukes a chance and also you a chance to see if with the addtional benefits being worked on i.e. campsite discounts that you may end up in pocket. Also, I will personally miss you all Crying or Very sad

Hi Pusser

As long as you stay around that ought to increase the number of subscribers by at least 100%. It'll be worth the tenner just to read the account of your 2006 trip to France.

By the way - no-one seems to want to predict the likely number of subscribers as yet - what's up with you all? (or do you all agree with my estimate)
