Annual subscription of £100, isn't that a bit steep?

wow £100. at that price, aren't the majority of members going to stick to the main forum. i have no incentive as yet to want more than i can get from the free forum sections.

Is there going to be some kind of logo/mark to distinguish Exclusive Members from regular members?

I think its a great idea and less than a tenner a month is great value for the forum as it is, let alone extra functionality!

Think of it as buying Admin a couple of drinks every month or something

If everyone was in it then it wouldn't be exclusive, so the cost is designed to reflect this, we dont expect the average forum user to sign up.

The free sections are the same so you are not losing out, it is an optional extra.

There will be an incentive scheme that will be announced soon.

Yes Edwin, members will be identified with a different image:

The Paypal link to buy a membership doesn't work. Pls let me know when it's fixed so that I can get mine. Thanks.

Edwin,

I have had others using it no problem.

Do you get an error message?

Thanks
