I never knew you were such a sensitive guy..............big hug /big big hugI have a very modified Fiat 500 Sport that I take to Texas every year and run the foothills with other Fiat owners. There used to be a page like this for Fiat owners. This was a group of guys that really knew how to modify the cars and help each other out. The owner of the site sent out a similar email to all the member about not having the money to keep it going. He was thinking about charging around $25 a year to be a member. Everybody pretty much replied " We can get on Facebook and do the same thing for free" So the owner gave up and shut it down. I'm a member of several other Fiat webpages but, none of them compare to the one that shut down. I would have then and now pay $25 a year to have that webpage back. Anybody misty eyed yet?
I think before you guys jump to sending in monies to Save OSA! Its time for a discussion. It would be nice to actually see the owner involved in this discussion. Since he doesn't actively participate here.
If the site is no longer about making money and add revenue is nonexistent. Then there is no need to worry about clicks to sell advertising. If that is the case. Then I suggest changes are made to the classifieds. We have way to many folks on this forum that just spam the living crap out of the classifieds and add nothing else to this site. I am not saying don't support the site. I am saying if we are going to fully support it then how about taking some input from those that do pony up.
@Okuma ,
I received your message and I am ready to re-up but one statement really put me off. The fact the site is showing it's age and you need new software. I have been on many a forum and made many friends but none I have met in person until I joined here.
I have made some pretty good friends here and even found a long lost cousin. The site is easy to navigate, it is not hard to figure out and is not confusing in it's layout like other sites that "upgraded" themselves into oblivion. I would say just as I was becoming accustomed to the workings of a good forum site the owners changed the software into a monstrosity that was probably easier for them to manage but was confusing and hard to navigate with a lot of wasted space used by the avatars and separations between posts. In fact this one site is really hard to figure out when and where different posts stop and start. If you want me to I can PM you a link to an example of one I was very active in that I just can't stand the sight of anymore.
I'll bet there are others on here that have had the same experience with other sites.
Thanks for reading this

I've gotten a few messages from people wanting to use paypal, unfortunately that is not an option right now. In 2019 paypal closed our account and seized all the money that was in it for "violating their terms of service" since we have gun-related material.
It's really getting difficult to run a gun-related site anymore, services are constantly being denied to us.
