Site Supporter Tags & MK

(1/9) > >>

That Swan Guy:
I know I'm not a Mod/Admin but I have been around a while. I have often received pm's for items in my sales threads from non Site Supporter Tag (SST) owners wanting to buy. I never reply to these as I like to think that some of the awesome items people have for sale, often way cheaper than fleabay, are an incentive to purchase a SST for a minimal fee of £10. I've had people scoff at this charge for what is effectively a free site.

If some of you non SST holders are unaware, that awesome FREE event you've just attended MK14, is paid for in part by these £10 donations. If you enjoyed the event that much you have adorned your Facebook page with photos and comments just think about your SST status. It doesn't just allow you to buy and sell, that is just an advantage of holding a tag, it pays for THE best OS BMX meeting anywhere in the world!

Just saying

Well said Nick, 19p per week, I lose more down the back of the sofa.  :daumenhoch:

Bob on that Nick  :daumenhoch:

I had a spate of pm's from non site supporters when I had the jam buttie stuff up and not one was sold to them. To be fair one or two did get a tag when I suggested it but I never heard from 95% of them again.

I know it may seem like lost money to some but most of these people bring nothing to the community and dont deserve the community rates for want of a better phrase   :daumenhoch:

thanks Nick

even as a mod I'm staggered that MK can happen each year like it does & FOR FREE!

think about any other event you might go to and imagine if it was free to get in, free to camp, free to get pissed up in great company and free to eat the delicious pig  :shocked:

apart from keeping this forum going, site tags go a long way towards paying for MK. Things like show and shine, race registration and merchandise all help too and every year sponsors and kind-hearted fellow radsters have stepped in with incredible offers of support. This year was amazing and you could feel that people were having such a great time - hundreds of loons in a field with no trouble at all, just the occasional casualty :teef:

Everyone brought something to the party whether it was a donation in the jar, drinks, offers of help or building stuff and because of this it was much more than just a few disorganised radmins putting on an event, it was a fantastic weekend and a reflection of just how lovely the people of RAD are

If you don't have one, consider getting yourself a site tag
Even if you never go to MK*, you'll be letting people on here know that you're contributing towards the best BMX forum on the planet and that has to be a good thing





* you should go to MK
