Have you joined the FSC? If not, why not?

have no idea, but the ACLU does have their shit together on their website, I'm a "card carrying member" as their website puts it and their fees are as little as $35

and they are helping to fight the crazy laws that Utah is trying to implement to censor content the is "harmful to minors

I wonder if we could approach the ACLU as a group and ask them to use our donations / contributions strictly to fight the 2257 regs. Hell I would gladly throw $100 their way if it was ear-marked for something like that and the ACLU got some seriously good attorneys working for them.

Mr Blue...nope not at all. Mistakes happen all the time. But, I will say this...at least from an organizational standpoint...the FSC doesn't really seem to have their collective shit together. Sad, but true...

I'm hoping their lawyers are better than their office organization

Kinky, kinda goes to what I said above. When I was talking to her, she was able to ascertain how I could have joined in a more cost effective manner. However, she really couldn't concisely explain what it would cost for someone else to join.

Yes, I told her the convoluted nature of their sliding scale was definitely putting off new members...as was the high price.

Frankly, if anyone is really interested...I'd suggest calling them on the phone. Maybe if they get enough calls, they'll figure out a simpler membership pricing structure is in order.

What a pain...yes, one would hope that after all this time...they'd have their shit together better. Disappointing...yup, but...if their attorneys do what they say...I'll be more than satisfied

thanks MrYum and yeah it does kinda suck that they haven't been able to streamline the online side of the business into their whole program, hopefully all the hoopla will end up with them working more closely with the online webmasters in the future
