Sadly Mr 25x, only capitulation and total defeat are acceptable, Germany emerged a much nicer neighbour and nation as a result of this policy.
The parallels are obvious.
Are they? They now seem to control the Eurozone as much as the Nazis controlled occupied Europe.
A few things really.
1. People have allegedly been infected with a virus from here without clicking anything.
2. Other users have also been browsing the site (sometimes like me on several computers) and have not been infected by the alleged virus.
3. Members are only a little part of a big fish sadly, people come people go, times change and the forum will live on one way or another.
4. On a forum with over 100K members loosing even 1% of those people 1000 members being lost over an issue like this is a drop in the ocean, yes it may be the more prolific posters but other people will replace those posters, I have seen it happen since I joined here back in 2007. Some of the really helpful posters have gone and others have started to cover the gaps left by those people.
5. Most of the info is already here on the site for most problems and people read and learn as you spend time here, not to mention new people coming with excellent knowledge to add to what is already here.
6. As for choosing not to pay the supporter fee or threatening to not pay anymore it really will not bother a company as the revenue will be generated in other ways.
7. Yes the members make the site what it is I totally agree but we are just pawns at the end of the day.
8. People go on about safety and security of their PC yet don't bother to learn enough about it, I learnt myself everything I know about PC's to ensure mine runs perfectly and is safeguarded, the same reason I fix my own car, to ensure it is done the way I want at a cost I can afford. PC's are like cars they need some TLC and if you can't fix it yourself you have to pay someone else too.
Not meant to anyone in particular btw just my observations over a period of time.

Yeah but to do that you'd have to get rid of the saic rubbish

Why would you need to do that ?
Its MG-ROVER.org so its apt that they have an MG3, 5 and 6 section to chat about them.
