TJQ Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think were gonna try showing one google ad per post. We have to raise our revenue up a bit to cover our costs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheaptackle Posted March 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 TJ, I can well appreciate the need, I really can. But it is annoying! Won't say another word about it. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJQ Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Ive been on a ton of boards that do it that way... unless everyone wants to PAY to be on here.. lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheaptackle Posted March 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Like I said - I appreciate the need! I'm on 5 other boards and none of them have the ads BUT they also have a lot less features than what you offer. Trade offs are always a necessity, obviously you can't cover the costs out of pocket. Once it's gotten used to I'm sure it will be a non-issue. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 yeah I visit lots of boards that have them and the ones that key one certain words then that word becomes a link to an ad... it's the way of the future of the internet..someone has to pay for everything...so I will not complain well maybe a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
