I obviously hit a nerve yesterday. Steve, that wasn't an attack on you believe it or not. I've never met you, and wouldn't mind in the least if I did.
What I was doing was merely carrying forward the idea that Jason could (and obviously does) budget his cash such that the money to run the site is separate from "Jay's Turbo Fund" as you put it. We as members should be able to put that level of faith in a fellow Canadian, especially given the great run this place has had so far. Also, once again, the word optional and its entire definition and context of usage falls into a quantum singularity and comes out as a whale, plummeting towards a planet that doesn't exist.
The "monkeys in a cage" run was an analogy, and a pretty apt one at that. I also wanna commend Scooba for donating as well. The whole reason it was brought up a few months ago was because of a post by none other than ZX3TUNR himself that he had to sell everything he was working on because he was run-over with payments or something. Whatever. What I proposed would have taken the weight off of him for a few months at least so he could tend to his own affairs without worrying about the site. That's it.
Anyways, like I said... obviously there's a greater mentality here that wants this place to remain COMPLETLELY free. Good. This site is sponsored, and should cover the bills. Terrific.
I've said my piece then, and I'm relegating myself to "observer" status. The worst part of any club, especially car clubs, are the ones that want something for free in perpetuity regardless of the situation.
I'll browse, and still chat with those that wanna yak about non-FC related stuff over MSN.
It's been fun, and thanks to everyone who helped us out with the car, be it questions or parts, suggestions, etc :)
