[QUOTE="TooManyFords, post: 2244650, member: 29902"] I have to agree with Billy on this one... Being one of the founding fathers of Forums and online services (yes, -before- the Internet...), I can honestly say that more problems exist when you try to control the many without resolutions. I know Logan and I do not see eye to eye on this, and that's ok. We agree to disagree. I try to be civil on his forum and not post bad info about the vendors over there because he wants it that way. But I don't have to over here and I expect that what I say here not affect me over there. As for the forum costing a "few hundred dollars a month to run", well, being an ISP I would gladly host the site for "a few hundred dollars a month - $10" so you could put $10 more in your pocket!!! <grin!> I'm guessing that it really costs about $50/mo. to host it, if that. If you're paying more than that then you need a better ISP. BUT, I do NOT begrudge Logan of making money on MM.net! It is the American Way and I fully support that. I rarely support online forums [with $$] because of MY view; that MY input and participation [as well as others] is what makes a site valuable and believe in the free exchange of information. I make the exception when the site or forum allows for the free exchange of information and opinions. As soon as I see that someone wants to be the censor, I cross it off my $$ list. I made my first million in Shareware by GIVING software away. I guess I have different ideals. So, I wish him luck in running MM.net. John [/QUOTE]
