The only reason I see to charge for a web site

The only reason I see to charge on a web site such as this is to help eliminate trolls.

That was the first HHR site I found and on the recommendation of a friend, I joined and even donated. Working with non-profits I have no trouble donating to help support something I use regularly. Figured even one good mod might pay for the $30. But now I'm p*ssed!

As a paying member shouldn't I have at least received notice. VERY unprofessional.

When I first started the club, I had to pay $35.00 to be able to have 'The Modesto HHR Club Chapter' and everyone who joined, had to pay the owners of the hhrclub.org $30.00. The 'chapter' never saw any of that money.

O.K., I'm a tad bitter at them... I'm not surprised to see that they closed.

Never.

Just having some issues with the server company. Hope to have it all sorted soon when I move the site to a new server

Mike Challis also owns

http://www.proweatherstore.com/weather/index.php

You can contact him through there. I just did; I asked if I could get a discount on his weather products for the remaining 9 months of my account from the hhrclub forum. I think I already know what the answer will be!
