I think some may be overreacting. They said nothing would change, give them a chance! I find these forums both informative & entertaining and spend a lot (too much!) time on here. I'm not sure I'd pay a "set" membership fee but, like the public television stations I watch & contribute too, I'd be happy to contribute what I can here to keep things going.

Quoting Terry, in my above post,
As it stands now, we all get the same benefits. And reading what he wrote, we actually get more than we had, and still pay nothing. (If I'm reading it correctly?) If you choose to upgrade, and pay, you will get even more. Go to the first post, and read. It tells you what you can get if you choose to upgrade.
P.S. Thanks for the "Thanked" Dawg
Woohoo, my first one!

Woohoo, my first one!you get no more than what you have now, but you get more "if" you choose to upgrade...
the "more" part is in question... is it enough to justify paying? I can't imagine the "upgrade" will only give you more storage, more pm storage, larger avatar and picture stuff.... there HAS to be more included...
my question is.. will there be restricted access to ANY of the different areas of the forum that we have access to now?
will any areas of the forum suddenly disappear only to return as a renamed section that is only accessed by "paid" members... ie: the "showdown forum" going away and renamed to something different for "paid" members only.. this is something that could happen because I have see it happen on other forums..... (that I no longer visit)
I guess we will have to wait and see........

Do I need 350 more PM's? No. Do I need a bigger better avatar? No. The changes won't help me much, but they may help people who do write up's in long form, with lots of pics; which in turn will help us.
Showdown forum? All I see in there is cut and paste pics of half naked woman, and other pics of women I would have rather not seen
If I want those, the internet is full of them 
I guess I'm one of those members who uses this place for tech tips, info, write-ups, and an occasional sell/buy of a good priced part. As you can see by my <3000 posts in 4.5 yrs, I don't live on here... But I have met some great people, done cams, exhaust, helped another guy install exhaust, and have made a few great friends because of it.
One of the few times in my life, I actually see the glass half full
and thinks the forum will be just as good as it is now, and better, if you chose to make it that way. Have a great holiday season!

To Robb,
The one thing I would like to see is if its an IB forum that our log on will work on any of the forums without having to register with each one.

You need Firefox with adblock plus. No ads here! No fees either.

Outrageous!
Thanks a million Drew. I have no more ads and all my pages load much quicker. And Especially, I hope no more Victory motorcycle ads either.
