But this then takes away from the experience of the foums IMO.

How about those paid members dont see the advertising like Geekzone does?

Then people wouldnt want to advertise.

Need to look at the statistics see where the trade off lies.

[Guest]

Another point - do something about wankers who sign up to sell s***. Not just tell them to do an intro.

[D-Style]

The main thing is what people want for the fees they pay. Speak up

Track days? Sure if everybody supports these.

Meet ups? nothing wrong with organising one yourself. But Support the events that are on offer.

MANZ affiliated club? This was a hot topic awhile ago. alot of pros and cons, and ultimatly do want to keep club causal or step up to a sanctioned club and events.

Start some fundraising events... if people a willing to support such things.

buy sell for paid members only, but liking the whole paid members dont have to look at advertising

All of the above

Deb was mentioning about trying to get a discount on genuine parts. I think this would be awesome when it comes to oil changes, replacing things, upper cylinder cleaner etc. Be nice to just show them your ClubSub card and save some $$.

[DacerX]

Wish that would work at the supermarket

What I know of genuine parts is there is retail then trade then people like me twist their arm for an extra 5% off trade.

Maybe if someone approached a certain branch they may give people a deal if it was nationwide but by the time you pay freight its going to be sameish price as local retail/trade price anyway.

I had setup CS discount with local sublab and quite a few people took advantage of it. I did send a message with all the detail in it to most mods but I think it just got filed in the hook up thread and left at that.

[Joker]

which is in the paid section..... (wasted) imho hence why I wanna scrap it)

[MercuryFree]

The problem with getting something for your membership etc is that the club doesn\'t charge that much for membership so even with a fair few paid members we\'re limited in what we can do.

Best we can generally do is offer paid member discounts on events etc.

Tbh between ferry discount and MM paid member discount I think I got $80 more value out of my paid membership than it cost me in 2012, for example

We\'ll see what we can get going anyway, keep ideas going .

buy sell for paid members only could and will affect the way things sell drastically majority of the time its not just paid members doin this but the advertising thing would be the way to go plus the club could make money from the advertising.

I paid for Ustream membership just cause the ads sucked ass would probably do it here to just dont think however much it is, we pay for membership is worth it for a sticker and a lil logo next to my name saying PAID MEMBER what can we throw in to make it more bang for buck cause discounts for mega meet aint for everyone

RE: sublub and evowrx contact..

Have used this multiple times and can confirm gc\'s would trade again AAA++++ etc...

[Guest]

If the club was manz affiliated I would become a paid member in a second. I will probably pay as I have had a lot of good advice from here. Once my car is built as it takes every penny I have every week, I will pay.

Mikes left now theyve got a new dude I dont know. I havent needed them in probably 8 months lol Ill still get looked after I know them well. Warren still owns it so I would guess the connection is still there.

[thorpy]

Just to clear up some confusion , the reps currently listed are those from the previous term.

New reps are to be discussed at the first committee meeting and will be advised later next week.

[Johnnynz]

I just want to ask about the reps...

[albaru]

I understand that a lot of people don\'t become paid members because there\'s no advantage to do so - nothing in it for them. Have no problem with that at all...

The reason I\'m a paid member is to support the club - web-hosting, domain name, club-owned things like helmets and overalls that people can\'t afford or don\'t want to buy just yet, printers, paper, stamps, etc. This club is a great bunch of people and a forum with an awesome friendly helpful atmosphere and that\'s what my annual membership fee helps supports.

I like local organised activities, it\'s just that for me there are many clashes for my time with other activities I like Megameets (don\'t need to be every year). They\'re like the larger version of local activities and they are so much fun getting together from all over taking part, driving cars and talking with people.

As to MSNZ affiliation, well, there is a car club in every area on NZ already with affiliation. These clubs are more \'stable\' (don\'t mind me saying that?) than Clubsub and are already affiliated. It only costs between $30 and $60 to join any of these clubs and then you get to join in their events and any neighbouring clubs events you wish to join. And you get to meet more car-crazy people!

Club merchandise - I try to buy one of everything that comes up because I enjoy being part of the club and also I want to support the person/people/club organising it. It takes a huge amount of enthusiasm, effort and time of individuals to run any sort of merchandise sell so I\'ll try to support it.

Done now ;D

Clubsub should have another meremere drag day, that would be something interesting.

[Divine]

I haven\'t got around to resubscribing (would be my 3rd year) but I do generally because it supports the club, and I prefer to do dealings with other paid members.

Don\'t know why i\'m like that though

yea hard I agree bro

[Joker]

another? did "we" do one in the past?

[Guest]

I seen a vid on youtube a while ago that was cs at meremere. Sounds like a good idea to me. Maybe dobc as well to get numbers?

[Pappu1]

we tried that a few years back..didnt get a lot of CS numbers

was in conjunction with a few other clubs..

but a great idea and would be nice!
