*** FREE Member Ban ***

You want Ron Merks banned -- you got it.

But, fair -- is fair.

You don't want FREEloaders & nonpaying members -- you got it.

The FREE buck stops here.

Hey, in real life sometimes you have to buy a ticket,
or pay a cover...get over it.

We're only talking $29.95 a qtr & $89.95 per year people...

That's only 6-8 online trade commissions.

Just two less starbucks a month.

Less than .03 cents a day.

Chump change.

Ante up.

SOTB

PS: We have decided to award one scholarship.

It's from the Oliver Stone school of conspiracy theory
and social change. And the recepient is -- Rogue Dolphin.

PPS: Yes, I know there is no way of stopping FREEloaders
before they post. There is no way (yet) to block them.
They can come on and post how ever many times their
SI "limit" allows them too...before they may be caught
and bannished into the abyss of cyberdom.

But, then again -- maybe one will sneak in under the
fence and lay down some good smack and get
awarded a scholarship?

There's no way to completely close all the exits, but
we can post a cover charge at the door.

And yes - once they are banned, they can just create
another screen name - as many who are banned do.

Kind of like spammers on blogs.

Or, graffitti artists in the city.

Such is life on the big blue ball...
