    Is this site charging for access now or thinking about it??? Kinda disconcerning after so many years and so much interaction and contributions if this be true.

  2. Yup.20$ its worth it man!

  3. Just an April Fools joke and you really fell for it. To be honest, I thought it was true until I signed up for a one week trial.

  6. At first I thought it was real, but I figured it out pretty quick.

    I would think a "call to arms" would have been in order first. There are so many awsome folks on this website that have contibuted thanklessly that I think if this site was truely in trouble, many would pool together to keep it going. This really is an awsome site, and being free, I think we are able to get the best from everyone, and can get realtime feedback from people just "browsing by".

    Pretty good eye opener.

    Very Good! Fooled me too. I think alot of peple would pay to enter this site ( not a hint, we like free). However, if the site was in trouble and needed donations, I think people would line up to help.

    damn, fooled me.

  15. Today is one of those days you very carefully use the internet.

    The worst is the startrek site. Not as good as last years. And I wont mention slashdot!

    If you have Google mail there is a intersting thing with it.

    But this so far is the best! As Always!

  16. From startrek.com

    Fat Vulcan — Kirstie Alley returns as Saavik, the Vulcan Starfleet officer who is still petitioning for a starship command despite the fact that she's put on quite a few pounds and can barely fit in a uniform. Cable executives actually liked the concept, but they retooled it a bit. Instead of a wannabe starship captain, they made Saavik a temporal operative disguised as a human, sent to early 21st-century Earth to pose as a struggling neurotic actress, in order to study the mores of the planet's pre-warp culture. Spock, who dabbles in photography of women as a sideline, has expressed displeasure with the show saying it is un-Vulcanlike and dishonest.
    This plan is so bad, it must be one of ours.

  17. Wow...it's a good one!

    I truly hopes this web page will remain as a free access site...for a computer dummie like it I find it extremely helpful whenever I have DVD/VCD or computer problem in general.

    Nah, the site won't charge $20 ... that was just an April Fool's joke. It'll actually be $25.

    Well, it you want to play, you gotta pay.

    The up side of charging access fees, is that those who actually help another person are entitled to a "helper's credit". This credit can be applied to your yearly account and any excess can be used in Baldrick's online Swedish sex toy shop (he's got quite a selection - you should check it out!).

    The rules are that you must aid a user in a VIDEO related problem, and that user will click a box that asks "WAS THIS REPLY HELPFUL TO YOU?" If so, then credit is applied to the account. Also, any posting to the OFF TOPIC forum will SUBTRACT from your account, so serious replies only!
