I'm going to start my own much better site that y'all can all migrate to for free.
Everyone come over to trannylovingattentionwhoredramaqueens15.com today for your free signups! We even allow images of naked chicks! Typical stupid GD. No announcement (except for DK_Prof's obvious joke) and yet people are throwing tantrums and making wild speculations. I'm surprised it hasn't been locked for "threads harmful to the site" or whatever the brutal fascist dictatorship CoC wording is. |

I can't understand why anyone pays in the first place. I had a membership and other than a couple more forums available to me ( That I never read ) I saw no real benefit.

The way I see it , I don’t pay for cable anymore because television sucks . Pretty much everything about tv pisses me off . The stupid ass shows are stupid. The news channels are shit . The commercials are annoying. The whole fucking message they are trying to convey with everything is retarded . Sports sucks . I read or work or hang out in the backyard and/or cook , listen to music . I do all kinds of shit , but I don’t watch tv . I get my news and info on world events and entertainment etc. mostly here . I bought a platinum membership mostly because I felt like I should contribute to a place that has given me so much . I think it’s a bargain.

I could use the time tested strategy of posting a sad "I love ARFCOM but my membership is expiring and I can't afford to renew - so Good Bye Guys"...
... and sit back and wait for someone to signal you to log off and then log back on again... But unless they jack the rates up like crazy, I'll just pony up for another year and keep on keeping on... |
|
Depends on if I am redirected to Brownells to estimate the shipping cost.
|
|
|
Nothing different. Never felt compelled to be a member in the first place...
|
|
I guess cttb and ryann are going to pay more for my membership when the Millers are exonerated. Shrug.

I quite paying after the old arfcom management ran Mark LaRue off.
|
|
Between arfcom taking direct orders from the crown, the new owners, and the EE charging sales tax... I’m probably not gonna reup

In this thread, chicken littles and subtle malcontents once again speculate on how the sky is falling. Same shit, different day.

Depends on the details/fine print. There's been a couple of times before the buyout that I questioned whether it was still worth $24.

I came close to not renewing this year
Plenty of other free forums out there without this kind of bullshit |

I raised my rents by an average of 6% this year, and will probably do a like amount next year.
Vacancy rates are down. Thanks |

So from the depths of someone's bowels another fecal gem of a 'new ownership' thread emerges.

I’m going to have a friend in the UK Parliament send site staff and email requesting that they not raise membership prices.

I hope they’re making millions. I was around in the beginning. It was very basic from what I remember. It took a while to build this site from that. To get the industry partners it has that monitor and reply to posts to the site daily says a lot. It’s a centralized place for like minded people to come together, communicate, share knowledge etc. To say this site hasn’t contributed to the 2A etc is a total understatement. Like most things that are free..it’s been taken for granted. Pay up biatches!

I was a lurker for years and took full advantage of this site for free. I get my first hand news here then follow up if I need to. I hardly go to other sites for anything firearm related. I’ve benefitted for many years and I’m here almost daily. I’m glad to pay back into it. For those who say it’s not the same...what is? Honestly I haven’t noticed that much of a change.

4 pages, and not one tangible piece of evidence of an increase.
I'm good for another year or 2, but I'll still pay. |

I guess I will have to be an adult and decide if the new cost is worth the value Jesus Christ, some of the shit you guys worry about.
|

I might renew if they continue to have the prize drawing for team members
Even though I have never won even the lowliest prize from here yet If the fall contest is discontinued, no way |
