This pisses me off, when the official announcement is made I hope they list the reasons why they're doing away with this.

I would like to re-subscribe for a few more years if that's an option, why would they turn away free money?

The only way to satisfy us ex-subscribers would be to do away with the ads and increase our PM limit (even 500 is a huge improvement over 100).

Since I am here would people mind helping me test out RossMANtech.com, this is only a test. Please sign up for multiple web hosting accounts, do not send me any money. Please also register for the support system and submit multiple support tickets!

Thanks!

<--- back into lurk mode

BAHAHAHAHA, he appears as if out of no-where!

damn cool website, are you really calling it RossManTech?

Damn you mother f%$#@ for bringing me out of my hermit stage!!!

Rossmantech.com was registered as a joke, a while ago a Hot Dealer remarked that I should register rossmantech.com so I did.

The real web hosting domain is HostForFree.net which will be FREE web hosting for Anandtechers with 50MB/500MB, cPanel control panel, Fantastico auto install scripts, FTP, email, webmail, MySQL, PHP, Perl, CGI, etc. I just have to decide between $20/mo and $50/mo.

I received a PM reply from Zuni, I guess the payment processor is no longer connected and it's now in Anand's hands. I told him that I would like to pay for 3 years of AT subscription for $90 if Anand gives the ok.

I too would like to pay for three years in advance for $90.00 if this is OK.

Nocturnal - Cool!

I just don't wanna see the subscription service go away so I am willing to pay for 3 years in advance.

Neither do I. I mean I would hate to go back to how things were pre-subscriber era.

213 days left on my subscription. I hope a new subscription type service becomes available before April.

Totally!

I know the free servers are faster (have seen my wife surf ATOT) but the ads and PM's I don't wanna lose that!

If the issue is payment processor I would be willing to mail a money order to Anand or whoever.

 

[Brutuskend]

Yup, I'd mail off a M.O.!

 

[GhettoFob]

RossMAN's come back!! Kinda like Jesus...:Q

 

[Brutuskend]

Think this thread should be in Forum Issues?

Will the "Powers That BE" pay as much attention to it if it's here?

I'd think there'd be certain issues if Anand allowed only certain people to resubscribe. If he were to have an open period where he allowed people to subscribe and then that was it, then that might be ok, but there might be certain legal issues if he only said "well X person can resubscribe but Y cannot"

Maybe it's just my comp, but I don't even see the side ads anymore. It's just blank.

 

[Brutuskend]

Yeah I don't see any ads anymore either. Just place holders where they should be.

Maybe a combo of google tool bar and Norton Internet security?

No cause I dont run those utils and I have no ads...

 

[RossMAN]

No go on the money order idea, oh well I guess on 11/02/2003 I'll no longer be a subscriber

 

[yllus]

The Proxomitron + a ten minute rule rewrite = No leftside ad bar at all.

Did they tell you what was going on, and if subscription was disappearing entirely?

That's spelled "sighted". Unless you're talking about quoting Ross, in which case it's "cited".

Are you SURE you don't bleach your hair?!

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

I wonder what happened to the subscriber related things, I hope the worm didn't do this much damage...

 

[ViRGE]

Gah, I've only got 32 days left!:Q

 

[loup garou]

Guess we'll never see all those new subscriber features, huh?

I couldn't PM you back Rossman because I was bumped off the Subscription servers and can't re-subscribe.
The system put me back to 100 PM limit and I am slowly deleting 800 PM's so I can use the PM system again.

I am very surprised by this. It wasn't cheap to subscribe so it should be profittable.

Waiting for that Official Announcement and hope it isn't bad news.
