hey Rocky, how much would it cost us to get those ads removed? I don't really like using paypal, but I would sure think a few of us could chip in a couple of dollars to get them off of here. I think we all get bombarded with ads all day in the " real world" as it is.  Not that I'd leave if they weren't gone, mind you !!! Whayyda think? owl |

Hey Owl,
I believe the rate that I was quoted was 6.99 for every 50,000 hits. I really have no clue how many hits the message board takes in a day, or how many it will take once it grows some. I know what you mean about the ads though.
Maybe in the next few weeks I can get rid of them or we can work together to get rid of some of them.
So...everybody feel free to voice your opinion on the ads...do they bother you or not, would you like to see them gone or do you care, so on and so forth.
Rocky

I think I have just become numb to the constant bombardment of advertisements. I just ignore them, but if the group over here feels as a whole that they should be done away with then I am all for it. Petey  |

I don't care either way but I say if ti helps make you a little extra cash than I say leave them there. 6.99 for 50,000 hits dosen't seem like much though, but who knows how many hits this site mught get one day.

Jay, I'm not sure, but I don't think it "makes" you money. I think it's a way to get the site for free. Rocky, is that right? Hosted for free, I mean. If I buy us all some ad-free time, anyone got any objections? If it's better for Rockster to have the ads on there, then I won't fuss anymore. owl |

I'm with Petey. I have become so habituated to the ads I did not even notice the PayPal until you guys mentioned it. Its not a big deal for me either way.

Same here...doesn't bother me. I hadn't even given attention to them until Owl mentioned it. However if the vote goes against then I will pitch in some $.

Oh, I'm not trying to start a "remove the ads" campaign or anything. It's not that big a deal. owl |

Well if everyone is OK with them or indifferent, we can hold off on removing them for a while.

Rocky:
Like I said a month or so ago- I'd be willing to support the site. Let me know if my money is needed...
