    there have been changes brought in as of 1 jan 2015

    i posted many times in admin news and General chat that the changes were coming but many seem to have missed them

    they are outlined below for you perusal

    thank you for your time

    Reality Bites

    Sadly the day has come when i am being forced into some changes to Aulro's subscription model or it's lack there of to be more precise.

    With approx 18000 overall users and approx 6000 regular users, the system has grown to the point where things need to change a little to keep it viable

    These modifications are the result of a number of recent events but primarily the fact that i nearly died a few months ago and hence came to the realization i need to do something for Aulro's sake sooner rather than later. Too many people have put too many hours into this place for it to just up and vanish with me...

    In the hope this will future proof it.

    It is my intention to make some subtle changes without trying to disturb the place too much.

    From 1 January 2015

    There will be a new subscription level that costs $11 per year or $1.50 per month

    It will offer you continued full access to the system the same as non subscribers get now as registered users.

    From 1 January 2015 new users will get 3 months free access to the system and then access will be reduced to many areas and features UNLESS they hold a current subscription.

    If you have been here more than 3 months on that date your access will be reduced accordingly

    NONE OF THIS WILL AFFECT CURRENT SUBSCRIBERS ON THE SYSTEM.

    The current subscriber, silver, gold, and vendor level subscriptions will continue as they have in the past without change.

    I am well aware this will have an impact and change the dynamic of the system but what needs to be done, needs to be done.

    The extra income will ensure the system remains a viable entity.

    So no matter when you signed up prior to the 1st October 2014, you now have until the 1st January 2015 to subscribe to Aulro.com or your access will be reduced.

    It iooks as if the mods will soon have a big job combining a large number of threads which are all asking basically the same question.

    Perhaps that thread could be titled "If only I had bothered to read Inc's repeated announcements about the changes to the forum, I wouldn't need to be asking this question."

    Help please Mr Admin!

    Help please Dave Blears!

    Not sure where to post this...

    I have recently paid to be a 'subscriber'. But for some reason, ever since when I open AULRO, I get the page that says 'please wait while we find a gear' on top of the page with all the requirements about paying the subscription and the various options!

    I have paid... so why am I getting this page opening every time I log in please?

    As per the definition of a subscriber, I was expecting less adverts and faster loading! This is not happening!

    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Many thanks,

    Pete.

    The sooner people stop posting questions asking why they can't access things they used to be able to see, the sooner we will be spared that opening page.

    It seems that a lot of people have not bothered to read Inc's repeated announcements about the changes that have been necessary to keep the site operating.

    Just a note to the mods ... I consider myself IT savvy, perhaps not very observant but IT savvy . First I saw of the changes was on the 1st when I tried to access the site, I too thought it was an error. I didn't see any notes or info on the changes, am not sure why? I generally only read the "90-110-130-defender-county" forum and have a bookmark that takes me straight there, that could be the reason? If I go to base aulro.com I get the page telling me about the changes and it was pretty easy to find, got an email from Incisor too yesterday that confirmed it all.

    A suggestion to help those struggling with the change might be some kind of cookie based popup, similar to those licensing agreements you click "Agree" on, you could acknowledge when first accessing any restricted features?

    Anyway, I wouldn't begrudge $11, this site has taught me so much and saved me $$$ since I found it! Probably cost me $$$$ too in all the goodies I subsequently bought though...

    Keep up the great work!

    i will be turning the delay off next week, it is there in the hope that people will read it

    you can load the forum page by loading http://www.aulro.com/afvb/ instead and avoid the delay
