• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Lost my coins and don't seem to have received a message to renew. To my memory it doesn't seem a year since I renewed, but I was kind of depending on you seeing as last time I got a reminder.

Do I owe you money or have you cast me out?
 
Helen if I go to 'user CP' on the control bar above, scroll down and click 'paid subscriptions' I can see when I paid and when it is time to renew. Is yours like that?
 
Thanks Lucille,

I went to Paid Subscriptions as per your directions, and got a list of what's available (everything), but nothing related to me own join / renew date. It's like I never was!!

It's quite possible I've just let me renewal date slip, but last time I got a reminder, and it doesn't feel like it's been a year. I'm on my laptop away from my main computer right now and can't check up on payment dates so easily.

I'll be back in a couple of day and can look it up then.
 
It appears that your contributor subscription expired on 07/16.

Hope that helps explain it...

Thanks..
 
Just an add-on to close this issue - just clearing out my junk mail folder and found my reminder to renew had been sent in there ... sorry, my bad, obviously got my spam guard set too high...:eek:
