SwearyCanary 1,179 Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) I think it is saying the forum won’t be behind a pay wall but the website articles will now all be subscriber accessible only?? Does seem weirdly phrased and a bit odd posting on the forum if the forum is unaffected. Why not just post the message on the website?

Branston Pickle 3,632 Posted May 2, 2023 Not at all sure - it might just be that we will get prompted to subscribe each time we log in, but that we don’t have to? I occasionally look at the edp site and it does this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I would say it's just the next phase . Get ready to pay for the forum , sooner rather than later. Pensioners get a discount? Nada for Nada. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably best that way anyway! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck getting people to pay for a forum, you couldn’t do that when forums were the most popular internet conversation method. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terminally Yellow 2,448 Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) I'm going to guess the Pink Un is going to follow suit of the EDP/Evening News and all articles will be held behind a paywall - but access to the messageboard will remain free. But I agree the message isn't clear. Edited May 2, 2023 by Terminally Yellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could do everyone a service and copy and paste whatever bleat/news/whinge/recycled Twitter rumour straight onto here. We could subscribe to you for 10p a month or something.
