I can't top this. Quoted for truth.

A pound a post? Seems fair to me - especially considering it's the sterling and not the dollar :D

Oh my...
What you're gonna do SARS?
Add advertisment or charge the fee for the visitor?
SARS, if you done so, you're gonna be rich. |

Nah, people would just stop coming if I start charging people. Now, selling stat-boost items for a feww would generate some income, but my moral principles forbid me from doing that sort of thing.
Of course, it'd be nice if I can live off my site. That way I can probably do a lot more, and actually add more content to the main site (which has not been updated for such a long time. |

Yeah *you know what* place had been dead for centuries.
Maybe you should revive it. I'm the one who posted last there. About ummm 1 and half months ago. |

Fill it with ads. Under the banner, on the sides, at the bottom of the page, everywhere. Post more reviews for other games, very positive reviews, enhanced by cash incentives.
I have no such moral scruples, the day any company asks to put a banner on my site is the day I'm rolling in money at everyone elses expense, baby!
Of course, if you're feeling jaded, you could just join us folks at Their Star as staff and tuck away this little ol' site thus saving you a ton of money. :wink:

My theory on the matter is that if someone hates ads so much then they can pay me as much as the advertiser is offering and I won't put up any ads at all.
Actually, seeing as I went through a war with my provider to stop just that from happening... it seems I have some scruples after that. Expect that to quickly fade away once the bandwidth usage skyrockets.

| Well the compromise might to create free account with ad or paid account without ad plus faster surfing and download. |

No, no it's fully meant to be Bineaple uqeen. The one who inspired me gave me it this way, and that's the way it will stay.
Besides, Bineapple UQEEN sounds much more interesting than Pineapple Queen, don't you think? ;)
I don't mind banner advertising. The only one I really mind are pop-ups, but that's why I have adblock.
That said, SARS, you'd go crazy if you had to deal with us 24-7. XD

You could put a link to ask for donations. I know some people wouldn't mind giving some money to help offset the cost of the site.

Okay, thanks for finally clearing that up. And can someone answer my previous question? Are the dots maritime superiority? The answer is probably in that new thread on this very topic, so I guess I'll go look there... |
