One of the great things about this site is that its free and everybody is treated the same. Even members of the team.

Everything that is sold on the site. Sitckers and polos soon are made for zero profit.

Whilst i can see your reasoning for a £10 option this will never happen. We give members the option to donate if they want but you won't be excluded if you don't. Site stickers are dirt cheap and so are the polos.

With regards to event passes after a few events the team would be out of pocket. We happily organise events for the members and the members pay for their tickets. Its just easier that way.
We don't want to turn this site into a business which is why you don't see any advertising banners and we are very selective about traders that we allow on the site.

If a member wants to donate they can after they have joined. I don't see why it would need to change.
