Good riddance to anyone who: A - thinks this is profit driven, B - thinks its a bad value proposition for anyone buying and selling in the classifieds, C - thinks anyone cares about facebook, D - is too selfish to have come here and discovered in GREAT detail how to set up and hunt from a saddle, and feel that 15.00 is too high to pay for shortening that learning curve, E - recognizes that it in no way prevents you from being a member of the site and getting said information for FREE, or F - thinks that having misaligned incentives with Saddle Vendors sponsoring the site is a good idea.
Let's say 1000 members pony up and pay for the PRIVILIGE of MAKING MONEY or SAVING MONEY in the classifieds, and to enter a FUN contest with FRIENDS. I'd be willing to bet that money is peanuts compared to what Red has spent in time building and running this place.
I'll gladly cover the 15.00 for any member who has CONTRIBUTED POSITIVE VALUE to the site, and can't afford the fee. PM me and we can discuss. For all the rest of you complaining - you really need to do a reassessment of your situation. Nothing is owed to you.
