Got this e-mail this morning as I suspect a few others did.:confused:

Dear Bagpuss,

Your access to the paid subscription "Donate 20 quid to accyweb.." is about to expire.

If you have selected a recurring subscription you will be automatically billed for the renewal, else to renew this subscription you must visit http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/payments.php

If you do not extend your subscription, access will be removed.

All the best,
Accrington Web
 
do you have an annual suscription?
it probably means the extras you get and not completely banning you
 
What extras .. LOL.

Thought this was no longer active, due to Paypal problems or summat ?
 
you get the accy supported badge and you can change that bit of writing under your name.....or am i wrong? lol

No, knew about the heavy text ... but never got my badge ... :D

Sure this is not right ?

Well, a mod will be on soon no doubt to explain.
 
I like extras !!!
I have no annual subscription and I have not been naughty for a while on accyweb after my two warnings.
 
you must have donated money bagpuss cos your text is different... ive just had a look at the donation bit and it say its only for a year after your donation..so that must have run out

Katex, i meant the accy supporter bit under your name lol

Oh yeh, forgot about that too, I meant you could have thick text (usually green) in your name.

Burnley web allow you automatic access to their over 18's if you subscribe. Not here though.
 
i should be getting one of these emails soon then, my donation is about to expire too, i was only asking Mick about it last week actually


Bagpuss i wouldnt worry about it, i reckon its just an email that goes out to everyone who's donation has expired, it wont be anything sinister


Kate, i have an 'accyweb supporters badge' under my name

I've made a few donations but how can a donation run out it's not a subscription.:confused:

I appreciate that it costs money to run a site like this but I presumed the adverts paid for most of it - am I wrong:confused:
 
if you go to the donate bit and click on the amount..... underneath it says '1 year'
 
I'm Not too sure how the system works but I get one of those emails (similar) every month because I pay monthly.
I suspect that it’s just a reminder to let you know that it has been 12 months since you last donated.
Again, I’m not too sure about the extras. I only know as much as everyone else. After you have donated your username gets added to the “Donater” list. See here and I presume, after 12 months it gets removed.

You get to use larger avatars, get access to the text under your name, ghet access to teh gallery without certain number of posts etc.

as per costs to run a site like this....

no margaret, teh ads don't pay for it by a long chalk. Roy luckily makes hi money elsewhere, teh donations people make 'help' but I doubt they and teh ads get anywhere near covering the costs. and that of course is without considering teh ampount of time it takes to run the site. It takes longer than people think to maintain a place like this and if yoy worked even at minimum wage you'd be surprised at teh cost.

H.B.C. couldn't even manage to run one successfully when given £591,000.00 to do so.:rolleyes:

Row flares over £591,000 spent on outdated website - News - Accrington Observer
 
let s be honest, running a website is never about any set of rules, who gets there first, who has the best site, its all about who randomly has the most popular site with a membership reluctant to move.

common sense is nowt to do with it. as such Hyndburn life had no chance.
