For those keeping track we're not into the 4th month of the new era, so £8 spent. 5 things have been posted. 2 are Imagine reprints. I have it on reasonable authority he's doing that illegally. In any case, old content. Time spent on site : 0. It's worth pointing out that while the CVG one especially includes some extra pics, the other RG writers post that stuff for free on the RG forum. 1 is a retred of a feature already on the site. Old content really, and in any case he didn't write it for the site so time spent : 0. 1 is some photos. I can't comment too much because it's the only sub piece I don't have... but it's certainly not games now is it? Obviously if some kindly soul was to PM (after all, piracy helps business) I could make a better judgement. 1 is reprints from PC Zone. Time spent on site : 0. So 4 months of "have more time to work" and £8 per sub has produced.... some photos and 0 new games related content. Despite everything, I WOULD subscribe for content, I really, really would. But there hasn't been... well anything that qualifies so far. 2 genuinely new games articles a month, it's all I ask (and being unbanned from the forum if I subscribe, natch). That pays him an unknown amount over £100 per article if he's honest about sub numbers. |

They are often set up on public roads by motoring clubs so drivers can check that their mileometers are correctly calibrated. |

The £2 a month is because you like Stu and his work. He's now made it a condition to post on the forum as well as getting the bonus stuff. ie stuff that you get for randomly giving stu £2. You get it as a bonus for doing that. BTW he now also has a blog you only get that if you are a sub. Malc |
