Wow... we just presented Boss with a question and answer on a silver platter.

SandyD · 05-06-2004, 11:05 PM

maybe we could include a short "history" or statement of "philosophy" of the site. Or simply posting guidelines.

To promote intelligent discussion of baseball and especially Cincinnati Reds baseball ...

or something like that. and maybe the "rules" or "posting guidelines" could be posted here in some fashion.

FAQ updated.

The 1-month subscription option has been removed and all subscriptions now must be made through PayPal only. The rates have also increased by, roughly, 12%.

I guess I just missed it. I moved $25 over to my PayPal account on Friday only to check the FAQ today for subscription mechanics only to see it went to $28.

I snoozed, I losed.

PayPal is now moving over an extra 3 bucks.

Not to sound ungrateful, because I'm really not, I enjoy being a subscriber and helping out the site, but my question is with the rate increase will there be any added features for subscribers in the works?

GIK · 11-16-2004, 11:40 AM

Nothing has been approved right now, David, but Boss and I are talking about a few things we could do.

Do you have any suggestions?
