I think those valuable things are in elite sections allready, like GOM and Fatails. webinars and methods.
I think salt is all information in this site.
I can understand Mike you.
But I think it won't help. People pay 50$ for that, if they want distribute BM forum indicators, and try to make bussiness.
I have seen web page which is charging 500$ for BigMike indicator set.

to get something for nothing.

haven't read all the posts in this thread but as far as I'm concerned if you start restricting downloads more than you already do aka the 'elite' section you can forget about me remaining a member if you want money get some advertisers you're sounding like one of those Chinese sites that requires either money or contributions before a member can go up a level in order to download something in fact I think I'll piss off now

Why don't you read all the posts and then put your finger to the keyboard

What if U give indicators for free ? and keep the Forums and the webinars all elite only .. ? Indicators on there own aint gonna change anything .. and frankly for me the $$$$ is not in the indicators . But in the ideas that we all share .. y not make the whole forums and the webinars Elite only .. Indicators created by the members .. without the input or without the idea of the member created would not help ..... i think that will create a major change .. ? Just my one cent .. please this was not meant to disrespect any one's work just something to think about .. Happy trading all.

IMO have two different account types. One for elite and one for downloads only. The downloads only group should be much cheaper than the elite. Maybe someone might start out as a download only and pay $10 or whatever and then later on decide to go elite, making a total of $60.

remind me of when I searched and saw some impressive/pretty indicators without description/explanation I said to myself nice and then moved on.

I'm fine with elite only downloads, but I'd like to keep the elite forum section as it currently is now.

It's still nice to have an area that is invisible to Google and the caching servers!

So Mike should host this all for free, right?

Effectively - you'd like to turn this forum into a charity for spastic traders?

Or did I read that wrong?

I too think the elite section should remain there just for some form of a privacy shield from google.
