WTF is up with this new advertising shit...

We've been talking about possibly getting these same ads on WRXatlanta for a while and now after seeing them on here I'm going to oppose them much stronger than in the past. It lags noticeably compared to before the ads.

Are you not making enough money from the countless other vendors on the site to where you need another $20 a month?

I've always pushed for a tiered membership where members can pay ~$3 per month to get rid of the ads; its also easy to offer greater PM storage as well as the possibility of offering email addresses or webhosting to paying members. There are enough members on here who could afford that, smoke one less pack of cigs per month or drink 2 less beers to get better privileges. Hell you could even offer a bunch of positive rep points for supporting members.

This would work.
I'd pay just for the extra PM storage.
