It would appear that there have been problems at A-O over the last few days. I’m guessing server problems as it seems similar to the problems experienced earlier in the year.
I wanted to ask how A-O is funded. There are a few ads around the site, but they surely can’t generate enough income to support a site with 37,000 active members (according to the stats on the front screen.)
I was wondering if it would help to levy a small annual charge to be a member. It would weed out the ‘lurkers’ and help pay for new equipment.
Maybe this has been considered before, in which case I’ll shut up and mind my own business in future!
