I see, it's that type of Board
Yup - shame on us for trying to do something that benefits people, without charging them, and hoping that there will be some future intangible benefit for them and us.Originally posted by cojak View PostIt may be a cost, but it's also a good ad and marketing so not completely altruistic...
Quite correct - there is an 'awareness' or 'advertising' or 'marketing' benefit - but I'm fairly certain that the moderators on the Board are fully aware that the link posting is not by way of - go here/buy this - and have recognised that it is go here/do this so that we can all benefit.
Is this really how being on this Board is going to be?Comment

There's lots of ways around this. Couldn't the welsh use rain as the carrier medium? Or an ultra-low frequency carrier through the ground? Or deliver downloads by DVD.Comment
