Good luck NB if you leave, good luck if you don't! I've read a few of your posts, don't remember them explicitly, but I know you like to speak your mind and have good strong views. I'm all for doers. If doing is leaving the forum, great. If doing is coming back, what the harm?
Either way of course, it's pretty difficult to have an impact on the fate of the forum or subscribers in any other way than posting.
As Jester says,
"We are the Ground Crew"
That will always be true, whether you are here or not, you will still be one of the ground crew.
I left for a while, when the subscriptions went to pay (I was one that didn't agree with paying... but it was probably more like sourgrapes at paying paypal (!) ). But I did tune in occasionally (like Carol is doing now it seems - way to go girl!) . I can't recommend it enough. When this Swineflu raised it's head, I just had to subscribe to say my piece. I wasn't going to let $5 or Paypal get in my way...
Since then I've enjoyed a few posits on different topics.
My view on subscription then is that - Crikey anyone who 'can't afford' $5 is not being honest with themselves. Especially when you see
how much these topics mean to them. I mean, are we talking five large mars bars here versus the state of the world and the universe and everything as we know it !
I decided not to pay... not because I didn't think Avalon was run right (like I could do better ? hee hee) but because there's only sooooo much time you can spend talking about this stuff... then I have to get off my butt and dooo something.
(like hoover the house and do the dishes piling up.....)
I wish you well on your journey NB... but like The Eagles sang.
You can check out any time you like.... but you can never leave
