Buy now and you will lock in the low low price of $50. Is that calendar or rolling? I am really just interested. How many more new sign ups did you get over the jan to march quarter? Are you considering raising the fee this year?

It is rolling year ... if you subscribe today, 4.4.24, it will run to 4.3.25. $50 is the minimum. There are higher contribution levels to choose from.

Yes. Any contibution $50 or more including $10/mo. If someone is considering an amount not listed here We will be happy to help you contribute, no donation is too large.

Just being honest as a consumer and not an expert or buddy or critic. The current model seems to be bound to produce less subscription revenue over the years while the paying members provide the bulk of interactive content. Just don’t see subscription revenue increasing as members attrite. Perhaps there are larger forces in play.

And btw if we click on that junk it is not intentional.

I got the same style ad just now (Edge, Win11). And what's worse, the "close ad" button doesn't close it.

Google the true evil empire :geek::nono: :cool:
You are not wrong. We have been fighting with them since the beginning. We will get dinged when an ad might be questionable but they will not tell us which ad and there is no way to figure it out ... the worst part is that GOOGLE placed the ad. It is like playing wack-a-mole. With that side, Google sometimes places ads like these pop-ups that are not approved by us. As frustrating it is for you, it is 10x for us.

FYI, Popups are intolerable right now on my laptop.
