Just randomly decided to go register for a free 30 day trial at the Motley Fool and found this on the LBYM board:
"Long live the(free) Fool!!!
Dear Fool Community Member,
In 1994, my brother Tom and I started The Motley Fool with one goal in mind: to provide a trusted source of unbiased financial advice that would educate, amuse, and enrich.
What you may not know is that The Fool was born on a single discussion board. Since that day, we've been committed to building the world's greatest investment community together with you.
Opening our community to the world
Our launch of CAPS last October has made it clear to us that when it comes to harnessing collective intelligence, more is better -- more ideas, more discussion, more people. In that spirit, we are happy to announce that in a few weeks The Motley Fool Community discussion boards will be free once again and open for anyone to read.
There is one exciting twist.
While anyone will be able to read the Fool Community discussion boards, only people that you choose to invite will be able to post on the boards.
When the boards are officially opened in a few weeks, you will notice an "Invite a Friend" button on all folder and message pages. Clicking the button will allow you to invite friends you think will contribute positively to our community. In this way, we are collectively empowered to grow our community organically and naturally from within. Rest assured, fellow Fools, the quality of our discussion boards remains firmly in our hands!
A complimentary gift just for you
As a thank you for helping us build the world's greatest investment community, we will be extending you a complimentary one-year subscription to our flagship personal finance service, Motley Fool Green Light (a $79 value) in place of your current community membership.
Led by long-time Fools and personal finance experts Dayana Yochim and Shannon Zimmerman, Motley Fool Green Light will lead you through the confusing world of personal finance and investing to get you on the road to financial independence.
We'll be sending you a confirmation email shortly with everything you need to access your free subscription. Of course, you'll be able to access the community boards as you always have.
If you'd rather not receive your one-year membership to Motley Fool Green Light, we'll provide you with a refund for your remaining Discussion Boards subscription. Simply email us at membersupport@fool.com.
Building the world's greatest investment community, one person at a time
Thank you for helping us grow what Forbes has rightly called the best boards on the web. If you have any questions at all regarding this exciting new change, please post them on the Community Membership Q&A Board.
We can't wait to meet all of the great new people you'll be bringing into your community. See you on the boards!
Foolishly,
David and Tom Gardner
