: I'll try to hijack my mom's card... it will be much easier.

I think the annoucement specifies that you can't use a credit card (since FM doesn't have a system setup for that..) hence cheque, money order or cash is all he can accept at the moment. I wouldn't suggest sending cash, but money order or cheque should be fine. IT is possible it had cost you more before if it was an insured/certified money order of some sorts...

: I'm also interrested in seeing how many people will get a membership. There
: is no point hosting (I'm not talking just for me, but by comon sense) if
: nobody register to download. I'm still saying agressive banners would have
: been better and maybe just fee for people that want hosting because a lot
: of people are still scared of buying e-goods, let alone e-services. I
: don't think charging for download will do much good to fileball. It's no
: good deal for those who want to host there, no good deal for people who
: want to download... not even a good deal for fileball. IMHO it's suicide.

FM just changed the terms minutes ago so that only if you need to download, you need to pay, which makes sense. Another thing to keep in mind is that this is a _community_ service..meaning by the community, for the community. If the community rallies behind keeping it's own service alive then yes..there will be contributors and there will be people who download..and the community can expand on the same principles it did before.

: But I'll do my part to keep it alive.

Good for you! (and everyone else)
