Yeah it's strange because the club has become divided over the TOAF issue regarding fees, but yet a trader can't access some trader areas? I wonder why? I'm not complaining just curious as to why?
I hope this post doesn't upset anyone as that is not my intention.

Hi.
I assume that the answer in post 2 is as far as you'll get here. It's actually a difficult one to answer I suppose simply because it's not a common mod.

Indeed post 2 was the only one that actually tried to address my OP.

I will give it some more thought over the next few days and see where that takes me.....

Basic trader £8:34 a month or £100 per annum.
They all don't need to be a trader, only one person.
Can't understand why they don't even subscribe.

Isn't that an awful lot of money for a polish person ? i don't know the average wage there or the cost of living, but £100 must be a lot for them.

The thing is, the software is free and it turns out to be true that you do not have to pay to add keys. So they don't need to be a trader.

Unfortunately this forum is controlled by the traders, take a look in the commercial members lounge. The forum is now just a trading platform for a select few people who pay a monthly fee and a place where a few people chat on a daily basis. The true enthusiastic owners have left, where's Arctic?

He's online now

The forum isn't controlled by the traders Rich, that's one of the silliest things I've heard to date.

And as to traders not being enthusiasts? I rather think you are doing them a great disservice with that statement.......if many of the traders were not enthusiasts too, you would find keeping these cars on the road a whole lot harder

Many people seem to think that being a trader on this forum is the road paved with gold, I can assure you this is not the case, and if I were to have relied solely on an monies I made while trading here, I would be living in a cardboard box by now

I have stood by the club's decisions for years, as I am sure you well know. This decision is wrong.

The comments I have read that aren't in public view are two faced, pushy, and for the gratification of what seems like 3 or 4 traders, we have lost support of a tool that would help everyone for free.

I appreciate you may see it differently, but that is how I interpret what I have read.
