They sent out an email that was pretty much the same thing last year, and it never came to pass, so I'm not sure whether this will really happen, but if it does, I won't keep my account. I don't have enough disposable income to justify 60 bucks a year for social networking. There are many other sites that will let me do that for free, and while they aren't Orthodox Sites, that doesn't mean that there aren't ways to work around that. I don't understand why they don't just advertise. To be honest, we are advertised at constantly on tv, radio, internet, billboards, magazines, newspapers, etc. I've pretty much learned to tune it all out anyway. I don't care if there are ads on Orthodox Circle. If it means being able to use it without paying for it, I would actually prefer it.
