Yes, I'm over from the dark side to talk to ya'll about something near and dear to my heart.

I nearly missed the new notice because I didn't notice the slight change in the print on the main page until this morning, but it seems we are now over 8,000 members and still growing strong.

Basil has made several options available to help support the rising costs of the forum(s) and I think that everyone should at least take a look at it and see what they can do to help a little.

This was always a touchy subject in the past and probably still is with some. I mean no disrespect to anyone, nor do I mean to be pushy, but this forum means a lot to me and to many more who visit here daily, I'm sure. It not only provides invaluable help 24/7/365, but it provides a nice place to visit with friendly and courteous people who all share the same interests and are respectful and kind to one another. If anyone has ever visited some of the muscle car forums, they would find anything BUT a civil tone to newbies or those with questions.

It would be a shame to see it ever get cut back or disappear due to lack of funding when we have 8,000 registered members, let alone those who visit a lot with being formally recognized.

I know that it's not for everyone, but I'm just trying to make those who can help aware, so that Basil isn't bearing the brunt of this cost alone.

Respectfully,

The forum has saved me hundreds of dollars, allowed me to make a few new friends, and is a source of enjoyment. This is worth far more than the small contribution I just made, my next one will be larger. How about it MG forum, can we outdo those other forums? I think number of contributions is more important than the dollar amount of contributions. As busy as we keep Basil, he can find the time to count contributors I bet. Worst case is he begs us to stop the contributions cause he can't count them anymore.
 
Brosky / Members, I'm retired and just making ends meet but I think that I could give a little. I think that if EveryOne would donate about $15, the sum of the masses would help extreemly. How do I donate ( PayPal, Check-in the mail, How??). I think that BCF is the greatest, I log on at least 5 times a week. I don't want the burden on just a few, so I will be glad to HELP support the Forum.

Barry , in the top left corner underneath bits and bytes is a support button. You need to use Internet Explorer to use paypal (unless you activate the IE tabs in Firefox).
