David BASC Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 In years gone by BASC used to hold membership fees for three years or so at a time. This typically resulted in relatively large jumps in cost when the price change came. Council took the decision about 8 years ago that this had to change, and that BASC should look to change subs rates every year. This lasso made life a lot easier for our clubs and syndicates who collect subs on our behalf Typically we keep the costs down to that of inflation at the time the budgets are set- if we possibly can , but some costs we need to cover increase at rate well above inflation. Sorry to see that what was a good thread about prices had fallen into a bit of a row between a few of you. Sirrusman I am 100% aware of our views of BASC and the cost of membership, as I am sure are may others on here, so no need to keep reiterating them, as I am afraid this will always spark an angry response as we have seem here, which runs the risk of sidetracking the thread. More balanced in the argument from another non BASC member / supporter was that of Martins if I may say so. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 It is with some predictability that Webber will post a pro BASC thread but it is with the same amount of predictability the usual anti BASC suspects will pop up and try to give BASC a knock. At least with Webber (nice big BASC banner) and David BASC (the clue is in the name) we know what we are getting. On the other hand popping up on these threads to have a go at BASC as some sort of unassuming passer by is misleading. There has not been a BASC thread on here that you haven't refused the opportunity has there? Accordingly, Sirusman whatever you wish to level against Webber and or David BASC is nothing more than the pot calling the kettle black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJUK Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 this is just trying to bait people. not really on that. hehe cant belive there is an argument over the cost of BASC memberships. We're talking about £1.86 here. Thats like a loaf of bread, nearly. half a box of cartridges, a bottle of window cleaner. Yeh the cost is epic. You mention BASC and all the BASC bashers come out to play. It's quite dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK can you kindly show me where i was aggressive other than responding to aggression?? If not do not make statements you can not substantiate.

GJUK Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) I think he's referring to your general aggressive manner in which you chose to deliver your options. Maybe you don't mean it. Perhaps you should re-word your posts if you don't. I think you do mean it however edit, spellings oops Edited January 2, 2009 by GJUK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) By all means, Try post no.s 4, 8 and 11 on this thread. among various others. You are always spoiling for a fight, and then you seem to sulk when you get a response that you don't like. You don't like BASC that is obvious. But do you have to keep harping on about it? Have you got a permanent search going on so you can get on the BASC threads first? A bit like a seagull around a rubbish tip. Actually now I come to think of it I had to block you from sending me aggressive PM's as well Edited January 2, 2009 by MC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirusman Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 So it is presumed aggression? Says it all does that Pleas do not accuse if you can not prove the fact.I have not knocked BASC at all only said that i feel they are way overpriced . Is that Knocking?
