Gil;

Does becoming a "Subscribing Member" help you
with the upkeep of the board ?

Hi Harry,

It does help, not so much with the upkeep on the board, that is mostly done in my spare time but it helps fund software to maintain and improve the site, hosting fees etc...

There are many services out there that I would love to incorperate with the site but worthwhile ones cost money. Don't get me wrong, MassCops is not closing due to a lack of funds the money will be used to enhance what we already have going.

Thanks,
Gil
