We just made it before the month long ban on alcohol sales. We had a good group – about 25 people – and it was a fun evening. We had a large number of new faces, from New York,Belfast,Finland, and of course from Surabaya. Thank you to everyone who came out. Special Thanks to Chris whose negotiating wizardry allowed the evening to come together.

Started an account with Fanbox. Initially I was enthusiastic. I was warned and cautioned.
I pressed on. I was wrong.
Please do not waste your time and money on this.
I was hoping to make a bit of money, save a bit as well as offset expenses. Fanbox proved to be a drain on our bank account. To make matters worse there were the constant reassurances of a mentor/teacher who insisted that all I had to do was follow the plan that they had laid out. I followed … right down the garden path.
Thankfully our losses were relatively minor. I hope I can save others the pain, annoyance and embarrassment. Steer clear of Fanbox and anything to do with SMS.AC.Inc.
It will be the smartest thing you never did.
