MythBustersFanClub.com is member supported.  This keeps the site and message board advertising free.  This also helps pay for the autographed pictures, postage, hosting fees and other incidentals that keep the fan club up and running.  You flip the channel when you see a commercial on tv, why would you want to frequent a site with a zillion popups and banner ads?

Conversely, donating time and effort costs little and that makes you a contributing member.  We’re not just looking for cash.
