05 Commercial on TV
#21
I don't think there was any reason to step in and undermine Brad's decision to limit the video to Super Stallions. It's Brad's site, Brad's decision to keep it for those who donate money, and for someone to just come in and post a link that could possibly deter someone from donating is unnecessary. What if someone was on the fence on the decision to donate? They'd balanced out the benefits of donating, and after seeing all the cool stuff that comes with being a Super Stallion, wanted to donate until seeing this thread.
That's all confusing, but the point is that anybody who wants to find the video elsewhere can. We all know how to search the internet. Just let Brad do his thing, because otherwise, those here who have been posting for nearly a year and a half, like myself, can keep this place.
Any discouragement from a donation directly affects me. :notnice:

I will have to agree with that. I was under the impression that we had advertisers to offset the cost of the board. I thought this forum was very nice and have came her frequently, but I for one will not be checking this site all that often anymore. Information and the internet where ment to be free, not for the chosen few that can or will blow money on websites. Next thing we know we will have pop-ups.

I ran this site for four years without asking for a dime from anyone until the popularity of the site required a hosting plan that cost more than I could afford. It wasn't even my idea to accept donations for my trip to Detroit. I just wasn't going to go until some other member offered to help with the costs.
I'm offended that you question me without knowing the financial state of this site. You aren't my accountant.

Not that I want to prolong this any longer, But I never insulted this board. Like I said this board is very nice, actually this board is the reason I am heading to Kentucky this weekend to drive the 2005 Mustang at the Ford Innovation Drive. So for that I am greatful. And no Brad I am not an accoutant, I did not go to school for that. But I have noticed advertisements on your board. Anyway I just get a little mad at times when I click on part two of a video that I have already seen part one of and have it ripped away because I have not bought into an exclusive club. Some of us are saving our money for our next large purchase, which for some include a new mustang. I am sure you have your reasons for doing what you have done, and I understand that a web site is not cheap to run. I do not know for sure but I would take a guess that you do this in your spare time as well, and if this is true I am again greatfull for you if you have sacrificed your spare time in the cause of this board.
