Well done, you're a fan. 3. Someone else says, 'Love that song!' Well done, you're etc. 4. Someone else says, 'Thinkg im gonna playe theat now!!!' Well done etc. 5. Repeat until you find someone to have sex with. I actually unsubscribed from all fanpages (except Mel C's official page) when I realised how pathetic they were. I think the last straw was reading, 'Did they used to be in Joy Divsioner?' These forums are regularly updated, informative and interesting. I'm sure contributions could be made, but I don't know how it would work...?

I meant financially... What's the difference between sledgehammers for Miley and money for me? Miley won't put her money where her mouth is.

If you can't afford to keep this going, or plain and simply don't think its worth spending any more money on, then fair enough, thanks for all the effort and money you've invested in this place - hope it keeps going, there is nowhere else (online anyway) I know of that you can have some sort of semi civilised conversation about New Order, as per the previous comments, the Facebook page is a shambles. If this does shut down, its been a pleasure knowing you all. Maybe we can get some of those trainer selling, spamming bastards to sink some money into here?

That's why I propose a closed group on FB, to avoid those kinds of posts.

How about asking Hooky to chip in on the running costs, now he's got a bit more spare cash knocking about? He's had plenty of free publicity for his books off the back of this site over the years... ;o)
If the end truly is nigh, I can only add my support to the formation of a closed NOOL group on Facebook. The existing ones are becoming increasingly full of fuckwits (in among the genuinely decent sorts, obv).

It's not just NO fanpages but 90% of pages. I'm not a snob, but after researching Ingmar Bergman for 5 years, do I really need to log on and read, 'hey giys, whats the name of thats ingrid burgman film where the dude plays scrabble with mr death??? sounfds AWEOME!!!'?

I'm also questioning the $125/month hosting
I have two sites - one costs me €9.90/month, the other is €180/year for fairly unlimited hosting
so no matter the exchange rates, 125/month seems crazy!

I would also be willing to throw some cash at the problem. This is one of the last forums around and i'm so thankful for that. Us geezers need excitement and FB groups aren't doing much of that. Although I am in two KLF groups that have been clashing for about a year.
