Becoming an ICMAGAZINE (online) Subscriber....Your Chance To Help....

[Gypsy Nirvana]

Well so far we have one member that has sent in funds for a lifetime subscribers membership....and I would like to publically thank member Sammet for helping to contribute towards the server bill that keeps this site up here for all to use, learn and laugh thru......

dank.frank.......guests on the site cannot post......only members like yourself....most guests are here to view the site and maybe learn something from it.....they cannot interact with it untill they become a member....

its hard when 1/2 the time the site is purly un-navigateable... i normaly wait 30-45 seconds when i click reply/quickreply/quote otherwise the site thinks im trying to post, it tells me i cannot post that soon, or i dont have enough content. its always a gamble wether my reply will actualy go through so what i started doing is copying my whole post... them i click 'reply'...anoying to say the least.

i really just enjoy finding strains on icmag -to buy from seedbay....
so with no icmag, i wont sbay nearly as much...
dont worry im not a big customer, only 1.5k this year.

id like to give you cash but, like others im sceptical the tech-support will be there a lifetime.... maybe another year or two... what was a year membership fee again? ill just start with that.

WAY TO GO, SAMMET!!!

WAY TO GO, SAMMET!!!

Nice job sammet!!

i guess this lucky member is in for a bonus of sorts?

hehehe

 

[swampdank]

i will sure as shit donate. can i send the fundswith my next seedboo transaction? i want to be a permanent and effective member. 250 aint shit when i comes to the knowledge i have gained here. i will start to round the change up now. an incentive for all members would be first pick when seeds drop on seedbay. that would be worth way more than 250 for quite a few people who miss out on sales. when rez drops a new line, supporters get first dibs. profits would be the same but seedbay would be reenforcing support for icmag. just a thought. i send in my change next order.

Don't get me wrong...like I said, GN takes a huge responsibility by having a forum...we all know the risk he is taking and the costs he faces.

Again...though, another side thought. NOT EVERYONE RUNS 5000W...and can really afford anything outside the already planned bills. SOME of us really are just scared little hobbists that spent all their extra on equipment and seeds-just grateful for such a place as this to be amongst such intelligent farmers so that we don't waste our investments.

Sorry that I misunderstood what is possible at this site, GN. I just see people posting stuff that starts forum roits all the time under a "guest" tag...sorry if I mis-spoke.

There are upgrades in the works right now. It just keeps getting bigger.

I think you're going to see membership rise faster than it has been. It's been a couple years since OG and people are going to get back into the forum life. The keys going to be to find the right upgrades to keep up with it....

Its for reasons such as you state DIGITALHIPPY that I have asked the membership for a voluntary contribution.....with more funds we could upgrade and trouble-shoot the site more regularly and thouroughly......

....and yes.....any member could make a donation if they wish to help however small if they are making an order thru SBoo or Sbay......and then they can forward it to me...for the ICM fund....

...GN takes a huge responsibility by having a forum...we all know the risk he is taking .

What risk?

BTW, would some of these funds help to get another magazine published? I am still waiting for my 2nd one. If this question has allready been answered, then thanks. Busy here.

Good luck on your endeavors GN.

Sammet sits twiddling his thumbs in the subscribers lounge...

Bit too keen aren't I?

 

[Guest]

....so 27 cents per day is too much?

It's not $0.27/day ... it's $100 today.

.....someone just told me 80% of the internet is porn sites.......what do they charge?

Most, nothing. People paying for porn are suckers cause you can find those same images/movies for free elsewhere.

 

[Gypsy Nirvana]

.....wrong.......it's zero today if you don't wish or want to contribute......that's your choice.....ICMAG is still here for you.......as always...


....take note......this is not me asking for a compulsory contribution.........it's you deciding on a voluntary contribution......

why does it seem people have a hard time understanding the word voluntary?

The risk that one day someone may not be as happy about his business and site....USA crosses the international line all the time and gets away with it. I suppose if the powers that be across the world decided, then it could very easily become a similar OG scenario.

 

[mrgrowmez]

Hey Gypsy and co,

Although i don't have 250 now, i will be more then happy to become a subscriber in the future when i do have some extra cash. It may sound a little steep but when you think about how much money this site has helped me save buy teaching me how to grow my own instead of buying soap-bar from dealers its more than worth it.

Before i joined up here i had no idea how to grow and now after almost a year and a half later ive harvested 250 grams of grade a bud all thanks to you guys!!!!!

Where im from weed and hash goes for $16 a gram in my opinion thats alot steeper.
Besides the site is still going to be free anyway

kudos

the IC mag servers are based in Holland where cannabis is not against the law
here is zero chance of IC becoming another OG

don't you think the NY based High Times that has been rubbing their face in it for close 40 years would their first target?

btw the US had nothing to do with the shutting down of OG...it was Canadian based and the owner was not busted for publishing

MEMBERSHIP THATS FINE

MEMBERSHIP THATS FINE

WHAT IF'S........ I PAY MY SAY $250 THEN A WEEK AFTER I PAY IT I GET BANNED CAUSE I HURT SOMEONES FEELINGS. I PONY UP ANOTHER $250 FROM A DIFFERANT E-MAIL ADDRESS? OR A REINSTATEMENT FEE? I WOULD RATHER DONATE AN EXTRA FIVE BUCKS WITH EVERY ORDER. TO POST COMMENTS IT'S A GENERAL SUBSCRIPTION OF SAY $25 A YEAR. TO RUN A TEST GROW IT IS $50 A YEAR ECT. THE SEED IDEA IS GREAT! I CAN SEE A BUNCH OF PEOPLE LYING ABOUT THIER GEAR. READ THE SITE FOR FREE BUT YOU CAN'T POST. IF MANDALA CAN HAVE THE SEED PRICES THEY HAVE AND SUCH QUALITY AND HAVE A TOP NOTCH WEB SITE.WE SHOULD TALK TO MIKE AND JASMIN. EVERY BREEDER COULD COME UP WITH THOUSANDS OF F-2'S FOR AUCTIONS IN EXCHANGE FOR ADVERTISING. I WOULD THINK FOR WHAT IT COSTS TO RENT A CAR FOR A MONTH YOU COULD MAKE A CAR PAYMENT. LETS BUY OUR OWN SERVER THE PAYMENTS ON ONE HAVE GOT TO BE LESS THAN 10,000 PEOPLE COUGHING UP $250 LOL

Sorry but this is another common misconception unless GN lives in Holland or only ever accesses the mag/website management interface when resident in Holland. My interest in this subject was during the fledgling hobbyist days of internet radio & whether we could be covered by the royalties being paid in the USA or if it was likely we could end up being charged twice. The topic was covered in the most recent broadcasting bill as a way to try making it easier to identify who to charge in internet fraud cases. The up shot is that the law was changed to identify the legal jurisdiction as that of the country where the person who manages the server resides.

I reckoned the UK as GN's comments make it sound as if thats it & also the paymenst are being requested there. If it was only the money & it was a sum large enough any company could argue there playing the exchange rate using rollbacks, but then again most would hold there US funds in America until the current exchange rate was more favourable.

Anyway just wanted to clarify the original point feel free to research it at the gov direct website.

Ummm... People only get banned for violating the site's terms of use, not for hurting anyone's feelings...

So, unless you Plan on violating TOU, your subscription would be safe from banning...

Also...

STOP YELLING!

 

[Grat3fulh3ad]

It's not $0.27/day ... it's $100 today.

Actually it's both... lol..

Most, nothing. People paying for porn are suckers cause you can find those same images/movies for free elsewhere.

To continue this as a porn analogy...

So, a porn site should only offer low resolution 30 second movies and low res images and it should only be free, and the people who pay for access to full length DVD quality movies or up to date hi-res images of a favorite personality or fettish are all suckers...




Absolutely crazy IMHO for anyone to whine about:

Getting to continue with the exact same level of service you currently enjoy at absolutely no cost to yourself... With the additional option to contribute to something you believe in, while receiving extra perks and services for your contribution.

No one is taking anything away from anybody, only offering something extra to those who are interested...

Geeesh... the way some of you are acting, ICMAG is attempting to extort money for you, instead of merely offering you an additional choice....
