Hey Joe, if you purge randya from all the forums, I'LL consider donating.
|
I don't take bribes... but its not the first i have had ;)
|
You get payed by the click? Does it matter wether or not it is a unique user each time? If it does not matter I will log off occasionally and click the snot out of them to bring you more revenue. Let us know and I'll pass along the word.
I have one machine that I use at work that has some kind of crazy cookie caught in it sideways or something and it won't let me stay logged in, Next time I'm on that one I will set a google ad clickity record heheh. But please keep it the way it is, if I want to see those annoying things I will do it on my own... |
Hey Joe I frequent mnay websites and none of them have adbots. Some of them have a small banner above that helps pay the rent.

Just donate if they bother you. I figure I've saved at least ten-fold the small amount I donated just on the free tech support I've gotten here.
And stay out of the lounge. |

There are times I wonder if there aren't just as many left-wing morons as right-wing morons out there. |

I'm still waiting to hear if they have an ad for the Bike Friday, since I plan on buying one in the next couple of weeks, and I'd rather access the site via bikeforums....

Koff, I havent seen any bike friday ads. What make / model are you getting?
|
I was looking at the New World Tourist or the Pocket Rocket Pro- but I need to actually call them up and discuss what I'd like to do and see what they recommend.

funny thing is not everyone can donate using paypal because paypal isnt worldwide.

Based on the comments you made in this thread Joe could justifiably ban you. But I doubt we will be so lucky. Donate to the forums or shut the H#ll up. |

Nice Job on the Ad-bot design Joe.
Probably the least offensive ad I've seen on the net. Compared to sites that load X to 9th power pop ups?- Thanks..When the cash is more available I will certainly donate and keep the bot, It saves the trouble of typing my search sometimes. |

So wonder no more. The very fact that someone claims to be one 'wing' or the other indicates that they are indeed morons. |
Concerning the funds needed to help support forums-
Neil (or someone-Neil ) is going to make a really sweet sticker, A suggestion is that stickers are given with a donation to bikeforums?-Not a HUGE incentive- but a nice gesture. And may get a few more people to donate in small amounts- Say a $10 donation gets you a sticker\ say $7 after cost and mail goes to the forum? 605 stickers- no more Ad-bot. |
