Meta: Business as Usual

With the season coming up, this is a plug to join TKPC. I'd like to operate the site as I've had in the past, but frankly I need to grow memberships. I don't want to raise prices, I don't to make TKP entirely pay to play, and frankly I'd love to publish more content outside of the paywall. However, I do need more people to join TKPC, and if that doesn't happen everything is on the table for how to grow memberships moving forward.

I have a substantial technical initiative with the site platform coming up. Drupal 7, which TKP is built on, hits end of life in about 17 months, not a lot of time in the tech world especially for a solo-founder. I'm either going to have to pay for third-party support for patches, or change a lot of code. So I'd like to see where things stand before I make any decision for how to move forward.

I sound like a broken record, but I'm really hoping the daily lurker, readers and posters decide to get fully dipped. I guess the message is simply this, if you like using TKP, visit daily, then join The Key Players Club.

I told him I’d crawl on my hands and knees to be the DL coach at Virginia Tech. Now, all of a sudden, I’m sitting in this chair and I told him I’d still crawl on my hands and knees to work here. I just want to be here.
