If we don't get a response that I think is satisfactory, I will suspend all member's memberships (apart from the donors) and memberships will be activated automatically when the member pays a $1 donation or so. This can easily be implemented through the vbulletin subscription software. I think that paying a one off $1 fee to have access to this board and its resources is not much to ask, especially when the money raised will be going to such a good cause.
