With regard to people power, unlike our country, this site is not a democracy, you are not required to pay taxes and by the same token no-one is forced to be here.

I just want to read about and lust over people's chosen discipline, and am not bothered about the name of the sub forum as long as the content is interesting..

pay taxes

But some of us do pay to keep this forum running. I see you do not....

no, we are sponsors. no where when Christel asked for support, did it say it would give you any say over the running of the forum, or how money should be spent etc, it is purely a donation to the running of a site. The sponsorship / support was said to mainly be to facilitate keeping the forum free of ads.
Hi All F-B UKers,

It may come as a surprise to some however we are just starting the 7th year of forum life here at FB(UK) and the next 12 month's hosting needs paying again. This year I am thinking about adding automatic daily backup to the hosting which from last time I asked was £25 extra.

We have no advertising/banners or site sponsors so we are as independent as possible, something I am sure most of you agree with.

A small contribution would be greatly received, you do not need to say anything on the forum, a note when you donate is sufficient, if there is anyone I am in doubt about I will ask, remember you get "Site Sponsor" next to your name if you donate.
Please do send as a gift though to save PP hitting us for fees.

To recap, you can Paypal the amount you wish to donate to fullboreuk(at)gmail.com, please send as a gift to avoid Paypal fees.
If you do not have a Paypal account and wish to donate then let me know and I will direct you in the right direction.

Fairly confident Dromia and I will make sure the wheels turn as they should.
