But you are correct in the fact that paid members are a small minority of the registered users on this board. It's also easy to see that the most active part of this board is the free access area. The members accessed area see's very few posts.

What improves membership is actually being a friendly accessible club that provides good value for money. Not telling people what you are "not doing" for your paying membership, just because people actually use a free access to ask what a club is doing on a particular day. But please go for it - dive in and change the settings to deny all access apart from SEC member - embrace your conviction that Free Users are unnecessary freeloaders.

And no, I will not be paying to join even if you are brave or stupid enough to make it members only - its just not particularly good value for money - may have been during another age under different management - but not now.
I am a subs paying member and really dont want to read this unedifying stuff. I can see that you don't like the forum, so can I ask you to please leave it at that .
Thanks
Steve
