Using this site without membership??$$

[Charley Lillard]

I think maybe the stars are becoming not a good thing ? If the stars become a indicator of who can't afford to donate then I think we need to do something different. We appreciate the donations but this is not supposed to be a pressure thing where people feel guilty if they don't have stars under their name. If you ever look at the top of the page and click on "Who's online" you will see that there are usually more non registered people than there are registered. Some of them choose to remain non registered but do donate thru paypal of the mail in support of the site. Any thoughts on how to lessen the pressure of not having stars ? Are some staying non registered and remaining silent because they can't afford to donate ? I really think we need to address that. You don't need to own a supercar to be a participating member here and you shouldn't have to be pressured donation wise to be a member either and I'm thinking the stars might be doing just that.
