12 Dollars Forum Membership Fee
« on: February 08, 2008, 03:44:33 PM »
I stumbled on a Filipino-related forum site and I registered there hoping I could establish fresh connections with some Filipinos. It's an active forum site with more than 6,000 members, mostly Filipinos.

I never returned to the website. I wasn't ready to pay 12 dollars for my continued existence in the site. My account will be deleted if I don't pay 12 dollars as an annual membership. I checked the features of the site and its capabilities - I wasn't satisfied how the site works.

6,000 members x 12 dollars. How much is that?

In Tubag Bohol, this is my promise: you will never pay a dime for membership here.

It's all about friendship and camaraderie, bisag kinsa ka, bisag unsa ka. (ayaw lang pabadlong...)

hahahhaha di jud pabadlong aron di ma dispatsar!

Mike, salamat jud!  When I saw the thread, I thought you decided to charge us 12 dollars for membership fee! 

You know, I registered to a forum that has the same look as TB.  It's actually for the cake decorators.  It said there, free-membership but when my account was finally accepted, I couldn't click to any boards or threads kay para lang daw to sa paying members.  Ngek!

Grace, though I've spent thousands of hours developing and guarding this site, it never came to my mind of implementing a membership fee to compensate my sleepless nights.

Tubag Bohol, modesty aside, has more visitors than the forum sites of ABS-CBN and GMA7 TV.

To reach 10,000 members is highly possible. And if I charge 2 dollars per year for membership, mamasol na lang ko sa Anda, taghuwat, anyway milyonaryo na ko. :)

But this is a promise and you can return to this topic and save it and print it: Tubag Bohol is FREE FOR LIFE.

It's all about FRIENDship.

All I can say is, thank you, Mike, and yes, Glory be to God, as what you keep on telling me whenever I express my appreciation to you for your selfless effort to bridge us TB members to know each other by providing us this forum.  May God's blessing be more than the millions you could have had gotten had you charged us membership fee.

Thank you too for your FRIENDship!

Mike, i couldn't help but smile to your post, pre.

You used the term that my dad always uses, which is "ayaw pa badlong" hahahaha!

Na lingaw jud ko, bro.

All in all, salamat kaayo for allowing all of us the ability to talk to one another in this forum. We love you for that, bro! :)


Mike I thought about you when I read this in bible studies tonight,
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness;
and all these things shall be added unto you."
Matthew 6:33

God Bless you, pare. Always.

12 dollars is enough for a membership fee in the charity.

Dong, I still have on my screen the thread you posted with the video music of Seek Ye First...  It's so soothing to the mind.  That's one of my favorite church songs.  I hum it all the time.  It's my first and last song syndrome for the past days since you posted that in the other thread. Thanks, Dong!
