the website is slow because the server that it is hosted on is running slow ( its out of our control unfortunately ).

the new site has a much faster server.

As far as I can remember the paid membership was brought in because some members shouted about it for long enough, the idea being that we could lock all the newbies up in a cold corner so they wouldn't dare ask long term members "which oil" or "Is 1bar safe" or "which FCD" ect. :?
The forum itself wasn't realy an issue, but one of the benefits of paid membership is that due to the money raised we are able to afford new software and a new server, this should make access alot quicker and more reliable.
Won't it be ironic that those who won't pay will benefit from the membership fees as well. :wink:
