Thanks to all whom have contributed to the few running cost of OzSTOC
People have asked why don't we have a membership scheme to belong to the club ??
And its a fair question that has been thrown around by us and the previous leadership team, but we all came back with the same view each time, to leave it as it is
Clubs and club memberships in general are a funny arrangement
The member who will begrudgingly pay $10 per year to be a member of a club and then expect all manner of services and access for their $10 will happily pay $20 because they don't have to.... they simply want to contribute.
The other interesting development we see is the member who contributes very rarely (if at all) to the forum or attend's RTE's but obviously finds reward in the OzSTOC experience will contribute $40 to the ongoing maintenance. Where a member who contributes regularly to Forum and/or RTE's doesn't financially contribute at all
(Remember it is
completely voluntary
)
Anyway.... thanks again
