I can't understand being forced to pay, when you can make the money with advertising. Just don't force me please. Support is something that need to be MY decision, not yours.

Sorry, I can't believe you are going that way, I still hope you can change your mind...

Thank you.

EDIT : People that want trouble WILL make trouble, with forced subscription you are just penalizing honest people without money.
I seriously doubt that is going to happen.
One, it is not my call...
Two, it is the owners decision and they are going with the Subscription route.
Three, They do not want advertisments. Personally I don't care for them myself. They look crass and can be very annoying.
Four, I am not going to debate/argue with you on this.

I know from a business stand point if you give something away for free then people will take it for granted.
When there is a fee then people will take it a lot more seriously.

Also I happen to agree with the owners since they have given ALL their videos and interviews away for free on the net.
So their forum is a small price to pay in the scheme of things.

Nobody is getting penalized. You were already GIVEN free information to begin with.

I also understand being cash poor.
I was laid off this past summer after 15 years of solid service.
It was not fair but, what is?
It was not due to my lack of performance.
It was due to the economic climate.
I simply am doing the best I can under the circumstances.
However, if there is something I want/need then I sacrifice something else to attain it.
