[Mike Piercy]

We have to resolve the vitriolic PMing and forum posting once and for all.

I'd like Fan Club MEMBERS to let us know what they want on this site, whether they want a Members only area and what they would like to see moved in to it.

I'll raise this issue with my colleagues and we'll see how to sort these issues out.

To respectful non-member forum users we want you on the site but we are going to have to do something about those who abuse the privilege.

We have tried to cojole non-members into voluntarily paying towards the site upkeep funded from members contributions by purchasing back numbers of RVM. Only a few have done so. We have offered current issues of RVM only one/two have bought. A few have taken out membership and we thank you sincerely.

We can no longer support the rest financially without change and we'll be discussing how to protect our fan members who fund this site which may result in you having to make a contribution to post here.

This will allow us to monitor postings more speedily and take appropriate action against those who seek to destroy our club and our reputation by vindictive attacks on Meat Loaf whose presence here is greatly appreciated by true fans.

Please either become a member or purchase some RVM's to help us pay for the upkeep and increase of the site monitoring or we will be forced to introduce alternative income strategies.

We will pursue the purveyors of vile and inflammatory messaging rigourously and we need financial support to do it.

Please help.

Mike
