And that frankly is a scurrilous comment against me, you read what you want into things I cannot affect that, it just might be the way that your mind works. So what other way is there of joining the club then?

As you say I know expletive about PAAS (that's only your opinion as you plainly cannot know what I know) so my comment only showed that I didn't know if there was more than one way of joining the club, unlike you I don't know everything (or think you do)
Correct you don't know sod all about it, else you wouldn't be looking on its website for your answers you'd know them as I do!

And right there is the answer to my original question about joining fees, all about money
Again this shows you know sod all about the club :rolleyes:

Oh has it??
Yes! And again if you knew anything other than Sod All about the club you'd know that! :eek:mg:

My my you are getting annoyed aren't you, your reply is no more than I would expect from you and is indicative of your general attitude. Rudeness is I have always thought an indication of an aggressive person who having failed to get their point over to another reverts to what comes naturally to them.

Its a shame really because some of your posts I have had a lot of respect for but rudeness I will never respect nor will I ever respect the aggressive attitude you have shown on here before.

Methinks you doth protest to much.

To be quite honest with you Crow, I'm not remotely surprised that anyone connected with PAAS, particularly in an official capacity, would be getting rather annoyed at you. You are hiding behind the "that's your interpretation" routine, but it seems rather disingenuous to me. I've no vested interest either way, the club I'm involved in doesn't even have a joining fee. However, I'm afraid that I'm also interpreting some of your comments as, at the very least, casting aspersions. At worst, they are positively defamatory.

You've been given umpteen reasons as to why clubs might have joining fees. I can't say that I agree with every one of them myself, but I will accept the right of a club I'm not part of to have them. For whatever reason, you are refusing to accept that any of them could be valid in any way. Sorry, but it does look like you have an agenda, especially with regards to PAAS.

Whether joining fees turn out to be for good or ill is immaterial. The fact that I don't like joining fees is immaterial. If it's not my club, it has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with me. How a club runs its finances has absolutely nothing to do with anyone other than their membership.

I have no agenda with any club but you are as am I entitled to your opinion, my original question was to do with joining fees and why the need for them. Paas members have taken it as an attack on their club when in fact I have posted joining fees from other clubs that are far higher than theirs, again nothing I can do about their interpretations. if anyone from Paas is getting annoyed that's something else I have no control over although it would appear that some have no control over themselves.

The umpteen reasons that people have given are their opinion and only that they should realise that others may hold different opinions. perhaps they should also realise that they also have a right to say what their opinions are.

My answer to yourself is the same as it was to the very rude posts that have been posted this morning, if you cannot or will not accept the answer that is also something I can do nothing about.

The "that's your interpretation routine" that you mention is also nothing that I have any control over, others can read whatever they wish into my posts only I know what was meant no one else can.

As has been mentioned be it somewhat aggressively I know **** all about Paas so there could be as far as I know more than one way to join the club, it has been mentioned that juniors annual fees are £10 that's something else I didn't know because there is no mention of it on their website which as has been pointed is my only source of information so if there is no mention of that could there not be other information that is not visible on there? I know of clubs that do have different ways of joining but it is mentioned on their websites so it is clear to the reader.

As far as joining fees go which was my original question I have my own views but it is noticeable that some of the clubs that have the highest ones are also ones that sound from what members say have a healthy bank balance.

Naturally, you have the right to hold whatever opinion you like. Giving voice to it, in writing or orally, is another matter entirely.
