Hello Logan,
It is good to hear from you.
Victor gives a good overview of the member boards. But, I know that you are a young man in college and have huge expenses. So, you might want to become a member through doing some work for us. I think that there are several things that we have wanted to get done and don't have the time to do.
With your young energy, and I imagine good knowledge of the computers, you might be able to get a job from us in exchange for membership. We don't have that formally set up yet. But I can do some looking around and see if we can work something out.
The main reason for people being in the member boards is that question of privacy. We know who the members are, we do not know who non members are.
Logan, check your pm for a message.
Bob
