Good and bad? Membership oopsies?

[fshalor]

I think this is both good and bad. Good that NES doesn't badger it's membership pool for renwals for Going Green.
Bad (ish?) Since I keep falling off the green wagon and not remembering or even noticing I've gone dark until sometimes months later. Super props though for not being nags.

Go Green is Good.

Suggestion to all of us is to setup a reminder on your calendar when you click the button. (Or just go life! Maybe I can next year!)
Also... another bad. This is a concerning statistic:
Total: 337 (members: 196, guests: 141) Robots: 808

2:1 Bots to Humans ratio.
4:1 Bots to Members ratio.

Just remember that everything we put into a rectangle and click the blue is in the wild in some ways.

NES website gives me a popup about 2 weeks before renewal.

Are those numbers rite? Seems like a low number for the amount of activity here. I could see those numbers being the members that anre online now. Although it does seem like the same 25 big brains are doing all the posting and commenting.

I'm pretty sure Life was a one time offer.

Is this like my car inspection where I can go into the next month before I renew, and after 11 stickers I get a free year in there somewhere?

They don't do that anymore, you get a new sticker with the number that was on the old one, even if you go into the next month.

What if you go a whole year?

Not sure, but not sure I'd want to ride around without a sticker for a year and chance a ticket to save $35 haha Of course a car that sits and is not sued would be interesting to see how that works out.

They'll cancel your registration after a few months now I think.

It depends on the cop's mood.

A surprising number of cops won't bother hassling you over a sticker, but it's a coin toss.

You can improve your chances by driving on rain or out of state. They usually won't stop an out of state car for an expired sticker and don't like to get wet any more than we do.

I left Mass in the rear view a couple years ago, but that sounds like something Mass would do, I have gone two, three years between inspections in the past, mostly because the cars I had back then didn't have a prayer of passing.

My bike hasnt had a sticker since 2010, and i have no issues renewing it every year. The truck’s sticker is from 2019 and its from RI where i bought it. I hear stories about registrations not being able to get renewed, but has not happened to me….yet

You would have to go AFTER it expires 11 times for a “free” year
If you go before you’re giving the state those 11 months

Or you can be like me and not bother with them anymore

My sticker is 2019 still registered

It’s all about money not saftey
