mal,
This is the first time I've ever had anybody ask to see more ads here.
I was under the impression that most people would prefer a clean layout like ours with the ads.
Over the years, we've been trying to limit the ads for random paysites to a minimum. Most of the time, we are able to cover all of our expenses by using the money we get from
One Click Pass memberships.
You are correct when you said,
"It takes money to maintain the server not to mention the labor in management."
The forums alone use several servers and an enormous amount of bandwidth.
Usually our members download over 400GB of files each day.
Our moderators do a great job at keeping the forums free of SPAM in people's posts.
Personally, I'd rather keep the forums running without outside marketing while we can afford it.
I'd be curious how other's feel about placing more ads here.
Thanks,
