agreed ive been on firearm forums and a few other forums… charge just for vip services lol you pay just to be able to read the best threads… or this car club i was a member in in FL, both charge money and in the car club the more money you spent the more you were respected… not buy who you are but how much money you sink into the site, thats worse! its not like vlad is charging the members any money for use HIS forum site, I think its only fair that if someone makes money off his site they give him a small percentage… try to advertising your buisness somewere else if you dont wanna pay
