    Boostless, I hear yah man on the money to keep site running I do. But ya'll don't think you coulda asked the members in a bigass thread to donate to keep the site running, & ad free?

    Members do you want ads slowing down the site or do you wanna donate x-amount of dollars? Then if half of em refuse, then at least you'd have known. This is a great site, ya'll shouldn't be scared to ask the many members who benifit greatly from this site for ends( money) LMAO

    Keep us updated on the ad front, cause the shyt is slowing the site down. I can't even surf the page on IE anymore.lol It jams whenever someone signs on & off AIM.lol....Vegeta

    I've seen other forums use it. And they use it more often. There is an option to turn them off on some forums, but this isn't as bad and anoyying where every post is full of links.

    removed.
    Only reason I removed it was simply to make a small portion happy and not complain about it. I will never charge IA members to pay to use this site.

    Anyways.. time to move on =]

    When I started this site I said to myself , I will never charge a member to simply use it and talk shit.. That never made sense to me how some sites will charge or have PREMIUM packages for BS memberships...
    What we charge people to advertise on here is really LOW compare to other sites with less traffic then IA.. honestly , Almost 1/2 the price...
    Is been 6 years and I havent charge a member a dime, to be simply just a member of this site. Unless, they are trying to sale shit and sticky it.. but thats not a large fee and as you can see , rarely used

    We have to use "certain" resources out there to keep it running..... I've been testing out a few shit on the site over the past month or so to see how it works out...

    We are running close to a terabyte of transfer..... thats insane in my book.. I never thought this site will ever reach that.... Boy, was I wrong

    I've had quite a few conversations with the quoted Panamanian from the onset of this site and he always made sure to mention that fact. Good job on that, big guy. Good job on that. Later, QD.
