ages ago, I read of Joe Gardner saying stuff like: "if the server bill continues to increase, I might actually have to accomodate advertisements" ...as if it were a last resort. I've read similar comments over the last couple of years by Joe and other moderators, such as, "if we don't have more donating members, we might have to get more ads".

Get more ads, I say!!

Cycling News has heaps of ads, but I barely notice them until this topic comes up
