too true! but instead of people maoing to the goverment and insurance companies and making a stand.... people are moaning at ian to save a fiver or whatever people want it reducing too.

while motoring costs have risen, webspace may have too? ticket prices? stand prices at shows?

My membership expires in a few months, but I'm in two minds as to whether I will be renewing TBH.

PROS:

- I enjoy the banter
- The site is fast
- You can talk about pretty much anything you want, not just Corsas

CONS:

- Moderating leaves a lot to be desired in certain parts of the site
- I don't go to track days/shows, not something that interests me much any more
- Not much is posted in PL apart from pics of semi naked women or people moaning about their relationships, could live without image hosting/avatar/signature
- "Priority support" only applies to email, why not to posts in the Bugs section or U2Us as well?

I have also offered to help support the site via other means as well apart from £12.50 every year, but Ian seems to have lost interest in what I had to offer and doesn't even bother replying to my U2Us any more

I bought premium membership, got my account banned (for something silly) then resigned up under a different name and bought premium again & continued to renew since. That makes me extra cooler

P.S. Please don't ban me Ian - It was years ago

Thread should be re-labelled. "If you're premium, why?"

Sam - I don't have a business case at present so effectively it's not a good investment. I know it probably is, but I can't justify it on the books.

Mike - what was the other username?

I don't know why i'm Premium tbh, guess it's a habit now, as i've been premium for 4 years (I think, Ian?) Mine is actually due for renewal, (well, 24th December it ran out).

Edit: I havnt got a car for shows, but do now have a track car, but thats a different website in WR...

Guess I just do it to support the site.

I'm not ruling it out but the decision is subject to scrutiny and I need to stand by it.
