It hasn't "just gone away" in the past. It has always cost us a lot of very knowledgeable and helpfull members who have now gone to other sites...

Our mods are now trying to prevent this happening again. I wish them luck.

More than luck needed this time I reckon - more like a miracle.

Learn to deal with it. Once you have been here a while you will get used to it.

Get used to what exactly?
People being fleeced for money, or things being swept under the carpet?

Contrary to the opinion of some I am actually attempting to resolve this issue not sweeping it under the carpet.

We are currently in dialogue with some of the members that it concerns and are hopeful to be in the postion to give some update information in the near future.

Unfortunately this could be delayed due to me being unable to contact one of the T4 owners.

As I and others previously posted Jim - thanks for your efforts.
The general opinion seems to be that nothing will be done though.
Don't get me wrong, I and no doubt many other members appreciate what you're trying to achieve, and hope it can be resolved to everyone's satisfaction.

£100 subscription lost for each trader who withdraws. £10 for each member who leaves. How many traders will leave and how many members, if this continues ? I'd bet that the ratio would be more than 10 members lost for every trader. Am I missing something? Do traders pay commission, too?
100 does not buy a full trader statues double that and a bit more. to right its suicide if its not sorted out. its no good keeping traders happy as with out members its worthless same as its not alot of good keeping members happy and losing traders. then theres not everything members want on here. there has got to be a happy medium found what it is i dont know but that is what is needed. the worrying thing is nobody has asked for any input to try and solve this problem. the truth is with out members or traders the club would not be here so isnt the best thing to do is ask both members and traders what they feel should be done. i am not saying let them decide but let them have a say for once. lets face it its there club really.
i know i will probable be booted out for saying this and it will upset somebody somewhere but something has to be done. this club will be worthless if it keeps losing members at the rate it is. its a good club with alot of good people on it, lets not loss sight of this and pull it back together.
