    Taking the ASF a step further ?

    Out side varnishing 1/2 kilometer of lining board and the mind started to wander....
    Has the idea of making ASF more of a club ever come up ? Nothing heavy duty or political (been there, done that..sort of), but more a way to help ourselves.
    For instance insurance companies always ask if you belong to a club. A small membership fee $5-10.00 a year, to pay for this site amongst other things, maybe a small cloth patch for your jacket, Associate membership for overseas and mainly HUGE discounts from all sorts of places....hopefully.
    Just the ponderings of a fume sniffing pom..... [)]
    Jesus died for his own sins...NOT MINE !

    This has come up a few times in the past. Previously we had just a handful of dedicated members but things have changed since then and there seems to be much more interest than ever before. I open this question up to the members here: Would you be willing for a membership fee to be put in place to maintain this site and also for me to source discounts from Insurance companies/dealers/etc (you know the drill) and give you a patch as mentioned (I'm not talking back patch here, just a palm sized one for your sleeve or bottom jacket back). It could also go towards ASF events and give members preference when booking accomodation at these events (such as the Fools Run for example). My only fear is going to the effort of trying to organise all this only to find out 10 people are interested and a $100 (or whatever the final fee is) kitty appears to try and do all this with. Everyone who thinks they would be in to this, leave a message below and we'll all see what kind of response we get. Although we have over 500 members who have joined up in the forum I'd be interested to see who the real deal are and would like to take this seriously like the few I know do.

    more of a business than a club. but hey, i could do with another job

    i'm sorta interested, but the whole club thing brings in alot of work for those involved. i'd be happy to pay a membership fee, this site is like a bible to me! but i'm not sure i could help out with running anything at the moment.

    If it means keeping access to the site,the knowledge of its members and the pisstake point of view of say "Large",then no probs with the membership fee from me.
    No weird initiations involving "Large" hairy men,small furry animals or things that need electricity though eh?
