- Closed the Merchandise section for revamping. I will be reconstructing that section to update it.
- Changing New User layout style. Basically you get to see the entire forum even if you arnt registed but you cant post until you register.

Pretty much, I want to give people a chance to see what the forum is about, if they choose to register or not it's their choice.

Well we've been on a major downfall with new members, but thats ok. More people would be nice but i'm not sure how to get more without spending a lot. I'm tapped out right now

Troop to help fund the forum could you get Les to donate some items for sale on Ebay? Just a thought I know how expensive it is to run

Right now I dont have any monthly fees on the forum. The forum itself is from a free provider (a awesome one for that matter). The only thing I pay for is the domain name and it's pretty cheap.
So the idea is cool but i'm doing ok financially.
However I am considering buying webspace for a small website to document info from the forum. It would be a lot of work so I am unsure if I am going to do this.

Some of the material here is good enough to publish, one of the few forums about survival that has good content, you should be proud!

I'm proud of everyone here, I really like how everyone contributes. Everyone has their specialty and it fills the forum up nicley. I am going to one day start copying info and putting it on hard copy incase something happens to the forum. Its a long process though

I have held off deleting old members for a month due to the voting, I will be geting rid of 10 month inactive accounts around the end of the year.
