Title: Membership applications
Post by: Bill Little on January 08, 2013, 01:58:02 PM

Applicants for membership that I have gone over in the past couple of days have numbered well over 400, yet I have only accepted 2................ we have so many bogus tries that I think we need to come up with another way to join, or close membership for a while.......

Found this on the SMF site. The company that makes the software for the site.

It is the same for the Paducah Aero Modelers site, (for PAM members only) and I only approve those who are members.

I say NO a lot.

I was in no means promoting any ideas about paying for site membership, just stating some statistics that those who have never dealt wit a site like this might not know about, or even guess.  Just a short time today I rejected over 250 applications.  Approvals=0
