Gerrof yer arses people....

[sharky]

So where are all the members [?] We have 26 pages of members, 25 members per page.....so thats er....around 650 in all !:)! (yeah I know not all still users) Yet so far from the count (Iceman still waiting for 77 ??) we have da da da daaaaahhhhhh 36 paid up ?[V]?

I have been looking at site costs and, correct me if I'm wrong Gix, but this site is now around $1500 a year ![:0]!![:0]!! And who do you all think pays for it ????...The same bloke that has since it was started.....Same bloke who organises the calendars (and puts up the cash) and the T's and the beanies......

So what does he ask for ?? A mere $20 towards the running costs. Not even the cost of a slab.[:I]

And, No this $20 doesn't include a sticker or a cloth patch...they all cost money, but it does give us a private area for whatever we want to discuss/sell etc.

I was prepared to put up and organise the patches but as 200 will cost around $5.00 each, I would be seriously out of pocket going by the immense response to a request for a membership fee (that everyone said yes to when it was raised..)

I will price up 100 patches and even 50 but may well be asking for cash up front so as to be guaranteed the return.

Don't we all owe it to Gix to help when he asks......None of us would be here if he hadn't got off his butt and started the site........Now its our turn to do the same for him.

I realise there are alot of people helping out with stuff but there are a hell of a lot more doing nuthin.[xx(]

[Iceman]

I think I'm just gunna hafta buy 41 memberships!

[slamdog]

Hi Sharky can you point me to where and when this $20.00 fee was asked for as I have not seen [8)] anything or is this what you are bringing up now.

[fimpBIKES]

i agree, first i have heard of it???

[RUSS M8]

I'm sorry, first I have heard of it too, maybe it is in one of the threads I havn't checked out... But I am happy to contribute $20 a year for site running costs. More info?

[megareg]

I did not see any post about the above, but then I am a n00b.... anyway, it was in the back of my mind to make a donation via the donation button on the bottom of the home page, this has just reminded me... so, I have made a donation of $50.. would that do???

Cheers
Reg.

[ozkat]

Hey Sharky, just wondering how you come up with 36 people paid up?

[chopaweeza]

As a committee member of Chopper Builders Australia I'm please that we upped the size annual contribution to this site. This site contributes much to the advancement of the cause of modified motorcycles in Australia and as such we have contributed for the last 2 years to ASF. Like alot of good things it's a case of support it or it leaves. As websites increase in traffic so do their fees associated with them. As the demand increases so do the bills and it is unfair for one man to shoulder the burden alone. I hope that this site will become self sufficient as it would be a shame for such a valuable resource to disappear.

He took an interest and asked me Shayne, so I told him.



I'm surprised people missed the post, especially Fimp. I get the feeling people are not taking advantage of the ACTIVE TOPICS link at the top right of the page. It shows all the new and active topics since you last signed in (a cookie is left on your computer that tells the forum when that was - the cookie does no harm and tracks nothing at all by the way, it's a standard feature of forums).

mmmmmmm .........cookies

Phill

[Zed14]

are you a victorian phil?

[Gix11]

Phill, just for the record - The Fool Run's full title is "THE APRIL FOOLS RUN" - meaning it's on the weekend of (or closest weekend to) APRIL FOOLS DAY (1st April). If you get around to getting a calendar later on it's in big print on that so there's no way you'll miss it! This year it is the weekend of the 31st March and 1st April.

[Jockney Rebel]

I can provide a merc if anybody local wants to drive it with tools etc

O.K. so we're up to 62 now, so where the fuck is everyone?

I really want my no.<s>77</s> guys and I'm feeling like I'm letting the team down coz I haven't paid yet. Also feeling a bit left out coz I don't have access to the members area.

Come on guys help me and ASF out.

[Gix11]

63 now. Should be 64 after this morning. Reduced to a trickle.......

[Jockney Rebel]

10% of the total membership roughly

[TurboKat]

Jeez Ice, you're really letting the side down mate, [V]
Get over the whole #77 thing, you think I wanted 23?
Personally, I think you're a tightarse & you're just using the whole 77 thing as a stalling tactic. ;)

[sharky]

May be the xmas party should be members only T'Kat.....:D
Oh bugger scrap that...... Ice's givin me a lift....[:I]

[Iceman]

I'll drop you off and circle the block until your ready to go home.

[sharky]

If the 17 people who said 'YES' and are yet to pay up put their hands in their pockets by next w/e mate you're ok ;)

G'day Si

Made a payment thru the donation option on site

Cheers

[Gix11]

Sorted mate. Cheers again and you are now a full member also.

Shit, I'll do the Paypal thing Tuesday morning on my day off. I'd like to order a patch to even though I haven't been for any rides with you lot yet. I'll go on a couple this year though (I should be somewhere in the middle of the group watching the Jappers disappear into the horizon)[^]

[sharky]

No worries mate, Once you're paid up I'll send you bank details (or paypal) for the patches.

I think mines broke...I only got 2.[B)]

[Gix11]

I fixed it anyway mate.

[themadpostie]

Sorry, I know this is an old topic thats now been bumped.....

Just wanted to say something about the membership thing..... having run a large forum myself, I know it aint cheap money wise.... but moreover, the time involved in getting it firing up and then growing is PHENOMINAL....... hats of to all the boys that help make this thing work, and as far as a full membership fee goes, if I thought the members of my particular forum would have paid, I would have done it....

Its unfortunate, but most guys think this stuff just appears on the net, and wouldnt think twice(obviously) about supporting the person who put it together....

I joined, and I paid up quickly, cause I know what it takes.....

Instead of buying that new sticker for your far-from-finished-and-probly-never-will-be-fighter, why dont you invest in the future of the SF movement worldwide..... thats what it really is....

Pull out your wallets, and prove you're truly a part of the streetfighter movement worldwide....

If you've got the balls to strap on a turbo, or nitrous, then you've got the balls to pay your dues..... keep the site running forever.... support those that support you.....

Just my 2 cents.... soz.... now back to your regularly scheduled topic.....

[sharky]

Time to drag up an old one.....
Its nearly a year (Nov 06) since I put up this thread....
I guess membership renewals are due.

We all know when we paid up so rather than more work for Si, lets just cough up when due...starting in a couple of months.

[Gix11]

I was going to send out a voluntary reminder, just haven't had chance yet. First bloke in was on the 21/11/06 ....and that bloke is known to all of us.

[sharky]

I'm just guessing that the fees for the site have to be paid each year...so we should all cough up $20 each year..

[Gix11]

They sure do mate, and the more that join the higher they get. It's all swings and roundabouts. You guys have all helped keep ASF going and helped getting the name out there. I appreciate all your help and I hope you carry on enjoying the site.

[Jockney Rebel]

ditto

[zx12argh]

Hey Si, you going to make it yearly memberships from a set date or from when you've paid... I'll be buggered if I can remember when I paid mine...

[Gix11]

Ok, ok, I'll do the yearly reminder with a month in advance thing. I've been meaning to do it for a while anyway....

[Loads]

Hi Si,
I put $30 in your account last week. Hope you got it. Cheers Loads

[Gix11]

Yea, sure did mate. Sorry for the delay, you're fully in now mate. Just sent the confirmation email.

[themadpostie]

Why not in anticipation of forming an association in the near future, simply make the yearly membership in a calendar year.... gonna save you a shitload of headaches..... no pro rata on new members either.... not for friggin $20.....

Just my thoughts having been there done that.

Currently treasurer of a club, so got the gist of how the whole thing can become a mess real quick.

Anyways.... just thought I'd suggest it....

[gibbo]

Got me email, money sent, so you gotta put up with me for another year at least:)

[Gix11]

The number one member! You can't lose your spot mate!

Just saw your donation. Thanks heaps mate.

[gibbo]

Hey, no worries mate, happy to pitch in.

[latheboy]

I've payed up .. can i keep my no. from last year .. or are you going to change it as we go along ?
I sent you an email this morning ummmm did you get it ???

[Gix11]

Numbers remain the same mate.

[Gix11]

Sure Clive. Here's the current numbers and list mate: http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4086

By current, I mean all that have donated over the last 12 months. Some of these have since gone and I will have to render them inactive on the database. After the full first year is up (23rd Nov 2007) I will add an ACTIVE column to those that have actively continued their support so you can see how many are still supporting the cause.

[03gixxerpilot]

thanks Si, its good to see that more and more people are supporting the site with memperships. lets hope it keeps up.

I am still not on the net .. 8( ... Access through the state library and thats about it .. its a pain in the ass but it will have to do for now. Moving house and christmas and all the rest of it have put all my plans on hold. plus my bike is my only transport now as my X kept the ZZR leaving me no way to start tinkering with the GSXF until I get something else to put around on in the meantime.
