I got an e-mail from corey last friday this is what it said.


Beacuse there has not been a resonable amount of snow this season our sponsers are cutting down on there buget and we are one of the cut off's. Thats means that Snowmobileworld is going to be down starting tuesday. Unless we come up with a miracle or something its going to be the end of SW  

Thanks for all your help !



So what do you guys think we should do ?

That stinks, AMSNOW charges for there forum even if you get their worthless magazine. We need to keep this going, if that means subscriptions well then that is what must be done. This is one of the top two snow forums around.

Well guys if this is whats going to happen we need to do whatever it takes to keep it up online, im all for membership fees if thats what it takes, and im sure all the other die hard members are with me.  

 

 whattaya say guys and gal???

 

[Limskii]

That would definitely suck ! I would pay a membership fee if needed to keep this site going.

 

[DanR]

Im in also ! i dont mind paying, what would be a fair price ?

i have no idea of how much it should be for a membership but i dont say it would have to be too much, 10 or 15 bucks a year??? if everyone chucked 15 bucks a year it would be $50,000!!!  that should be enough LOL!! but whatever it turns out to be im in anyhow!

I didnt get the email..........

ryan, its posted in the moderators lounge

I'd pay.  It's bassackwards.  Since there's no snow, we all have a ton of extra time to be online on SW, so the sponsors should be paying more because they're reaching more viewers!

I hope that Paul Yarek dude has to pay triple!  He alone probably overheats the server.

 

[mxz7]

I will pay if I havce to.There has to be more sponsors out there.It would be money well spent.

Hey guys I am in for 20.00 to keep the forums open.
Who do I give my number to?

I know I don't have a sled anymore but maybe next year if I can work something out with Louie.

 

[RNM2399]

You can't multiply the number of members right now by their donation because I would think at least half the people on this site wouldn't pay, they would just quit. It might be as high as $50 a person DanR and I figured.

[paul yarek]

it'll only be a couple bucks a month, let's just do it find out where to go with this. should we elect someone ? i think danr or rocketman.

 

[LadyK]

I would pay member fees.Give everyone an SW sticker with their membership.We belong to the TDR and pay member fees there.Doo you think we could bribe them with cupcakes? LOL  

 

[sled-head]

I kick in a few bucks......But when push comes to shove the memberships will be cut in half as soon as they have open the wallets........But seriously if this is no joke the Canadian dollar is weak but not weak enough that I cant support

P.S
I still think that the sticker deal would help out with some of the costs,time and trouble for this site.......

 

[TallCool1]

I think the moderators just want new sleds...

 
But if it is legit, I'll pay.
