..... my moderator status ended a long time ago...
(Am still a relative newcomer here and this exchange has gone way off topic.) But no wonder, with your "cheapskate" label for less wealthy punters.
Bloody hell, they always say the English are obsessed with class, are you trying to force it into the punting world too? And even my limited experience tells me a higher price does not mean better service. Or is it just the poorer punters you want off the site?
I suspect cancellations do hit us harder. You make certain preparations and it can cost you even with 24 hrs notice. I would appreciate a fellow punter alerting me to this and if they put up a Neg, so be it. Up to the rest of us to decide to take our chances or not. DONT appreciate someone with deep pockets telling us to put up and shut up.
