Crosswind, hope you have already read the other threads (both here and in the SYM) regarding this topic before the above post.

No one forced you or us to pay for this site. If you don't want to pay, then you just don't have to come here. I'm sure you know somewhere else better than GB and free. As you said yourself, "your services are not worth so much that we will not take the time to go somewhere else that has the information for free". Many of us feels this site is worth paying a few coins from our hard earned money, therefore stay here.
Oh, and please think this: When Buck announced his decision, there are some people posted like you. Before even Buck showed up, there were members rushed in to show their understanding and support to the decision and this site. Isn't it telling you something?
[Edit]
Shame, I've been away for a while from the SYM, and this is my first post in many weeks...
