Originally posted by CalJustHey, CJ, the current exchange rate is R6.50 to the $. So a sub is R130. That's 30% less than 1 month's ISP's fees, 50% less than the average meal for 2 at a half-decent restuarant, a third of 1 months satellite TV subs, 1/2 a tank of petrol, a paperback novel, a bargain DVD, a no-name brand T-shirt, and ..... if you, in SA, with a MUCH higher inflation rates than USA and Europe, are not earning at least 10-20 times what you were earning in 1982, life has indeed passed you by.
I have seriously considered membership many times(and may yet do so!). However, just to put the money matters into perspective, $20 may buy a hamburger and Coke in the US and UK, but it certainly does not do so in SA. With the current exchange rate, $1 buys R7 to R8, whilst the cost of goods in Rands and Dollars is about the same (i.e. a hamburger and Co ...[text shortened]... ns that RHP membership for SA is about seven to eight times more than in the US or UK.
Although I must admit, you CAN still get a burger and coke for R20. All the more reason why you CAN afford the RHP subs. Is this a great country, or what?!? π

today I was called son of a b**** by a non subscriber in the general forum...............this says all.
I think at most, a limit on the number of post is okay, as the first poster said. But if you block them, the non-stars will have no way of seeing how fun it is to join in the debates.
BTW, I like to flame and stay, not run away.

However Russ will never limit non-subs in forum,so the matter is closed.

I think that is a bad idea because not many people can afford to subscribe. If you are new you might not know the site very well therefore you won't want to spend money subscribing straight away.
I have only just joined this site today. It is, undoubtly a very good site and I think that the message boards help me out alot. If I had only the limit of 10 messages a day I don't think I would be able to enjoy the "red hot porn" experience as much or get as much help as I do.
In conclusion I am saying that your suggestion is not a bad idea but subscribers do get enough benefits as it is to attract attention to paying for a subscription and the message boards add extra interest I think as you can ask subscribers about the full "red hot porn" experience.
I think that in the future I will look into subscribing but 10 messages a day? I think that will put people off.
Love, lilmissnaughty π xx

£12 a year isn't exactly a lot.
in zim £12 = ZWD 120,000 - that is in some cases more than months salary.
and for <20's that maybe a months pocket money
with that i am not complaining £12 is fine for me.
