HOWDY SOAD!  Thanks for joining.


If you're talking about this smiley- that's all from the forum software provider, I can't customize all that type of stuff.  One of the limits of a free forum.


Oh yeah, cool sig, I notice that one part is from the Animatrix.

Why are admins so attracted to this site? We have three of them now.

Because it's small, and they can talk without being singled out and critisized? (My guess, anyway)

Wrong. It's because we're THAT GOOD!

How much money is needed for site maintenance? If you put up Google ads and asked all members to click on five per day or so, you could easily get some money in.

That Google ad thing is a good idea.  I think the site is about $10, a lot of the members are from the UK though, and I think the Forums is $70 a year.

I've made something like $12 from my site in less than two weeks, with different posters clicking you could make $80 per easily.

Kewl, they actually might not be able to put things like that on their site though, I think they kinda just fill in the spaces provided on the template from the software host.


You probably won't understand what I just said.

I do understand what you're trying to say, but it shouldn't present a problem. Google just gives you code that you can paste onto the page, which you could put on the template.

Yeah, you probably can, but I always like to point out that there is a possibility it won't work, I don't know why, though.

That's a useful trait, but only if you actually have a REASON it may not work.

Well, I've went to other sites provided by the same software, and they all have the same kind of layout, and same type of ads.

They do have ads? Now you're just confusing me.

They have ads, but on every site it's from the same provider (such as mediaclick) so I don't know if the admins of the sites can change those ads or not.

Okay, this whole conversation was probably pointless, on the forums they do have Google ads, but on the homepage they don't (2 different hosts I think).  Oh well, higher post count.
