There was a guy in Michigan that owed me 200 bucks for over a year. I was persistent in calling him and he finally cussed me out and hung up on me. I posted this situation on OSO and a OSO brother was in this turd's office within minutes collecting the money for me. I have also sold and bought boats , parts and other stuff on here. If you don't see the value in paying 50 bucks to be a part of our fraternity , don't pay it and go somewhere else! I say raise it to 100 bucks just to weed out the unappreciated few! BH

Hey Joker, I would have paid, you didn't need to kill my dog and burn my truck. That and my knees are just getting better, I walked 10 feet yesterday. If you or anyone needs assistance in MI we are all over it. And no it was not me, I owe him a lot more

I would have to agree with the fee's, If it were mine , I would want to make money on it. It mabye kind of a cool job but it is a job and Steve and Jeffery I think should be compensated for all of there hard work. Nothing worth doing is free, and I'll bet everyone complaning gets on here almost daily.
Just my .02

Actual Cost To You!
Let me take a minute and brake this down.
$50.00 a year broken down:
Cost per month= $4.16
Cost per week= $0.96
Cost per day= $0.13
Cost per hour= $0.0057
I hope this puts things in perspective. I don't think this is too much to pay for the information and help available from other members. Hell you could find .13 a day on the street or in the seat of your car.I have learned more about performance boats in the past 12 months than the past 20 years of being around boats. You can ask a question about almost anything and get a response with in hours and sometimes minutes. And not just boating questions. For example, yesterday I had a virus on my computer. With the exception of my work, boats and porn I am a moron when it comes to computers.
I posted a thread about the virus and has a response with in a half hour and had the problem fixed within an hour. If I had to call customer support it probably would have cost $75. So the way I see it i'm $25 ahead.
Also, this is a business. How can people knock someone who provides a great service and is looking to profit from it. I don't understand this because we all work and want to get properly compensated for out work. It's like some people think the owners of this site make millions of dollars a year and screw their customers. I get this all the time from people that think because I own my own business and a boat that I'm rich and don't have to work. People have no idea how hard it is to run a business. Yea some days are great when you own the business but most days are filled with stress and aggravation.
All i'm saying is lets take a step back here and look at the big picture.
P.S. Plus, we are saving money on all the free porn we get in the uncensored section!!
