On the note of the original post, I totally agree. I am not sure what you guys are using here to pay the bills, but i know that on my home forum I can tell you the ads do not do enough to pay all the bills for updating and upgrading the forum. I would like to spend some more time here before i begin donating, however i am liking what i am seeing, and if i decide I like it enough, I will certianly become an avid donater.
you are certainly right...running a forum is not cheap..and google don't pay much either..but it do pay some bills..lol...but I'm always thank full for the members that do help out...With there consistence donation i manged to get us new server, whcih is alot better then what we had.And upgraded my vb license and others.
