If you think about ( I include myself ) £100 per year = only £2 per week including 2 weeks free for Christmas

I appreciate what Alan does and therefore tend not to complain

I dont like the idea that acorn is for the money.

Forums are chicken and egg, as without the members there are no posts and no forum.

Members based 'buy out' and run it as a collective?

And what sort of figures are you talking there ?

Would probably leave me out and a few other regulars so then what happens, we have zero say in the forums ?

Ideally I would see it as a one member one vote style setup.

'Acorn' could then take part as a formal grouping for policy feedback and the like.

Likewise raising standards internally, in terms of TM names etc.

Something like that would not work though unless its done 'properly' and inclusive.
