• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I can't bump adds?

My ability to bump adds has disappeared but my contributor subscription is up to date? Every time I attempt a bump it says that I have to be a contributing member...

It doesn't appear that your Contributor subscription is up to date. When was it that you paid or going to expire? Check your emails and spam folder for expiring notice.
 
It's possible that the link between PayPal and this site has failed and your account here was never updated with the payment. It's happened a few times here and there, meaning I have had to update accounts manually.

I've looked through my PayPal account and don't see any payment from you since September 1, so let me know if there has actually been a PayPal payment and I'll take care of it for you.
 
Ah, I see. But don't understand....

I see a payment made for "coldbloodedcarnival" and there is also a corresponding record received by this site for your account. But for some reason you account just was never updated to reflect the payment. :bandhead0

This crap is going to drive me to drink......

I'll take care of it.
 
Sheesh, I scanned through the log just from 09-12 to present and see several instances of payments being processed but the accounts not being updated....

Now what? :shrug01:

I guess I have to go through and check them all manually until the chronological beginning of the problem is reached or else I go running off into the woods screaming.

Interesting first post for a new member....
Now that you're in the spotlight, DoreMon, please amend your location field so it shows your City and State; and you'll need to contact WebSlave to have your name added.

The IP address hails from Pakistan. I don't like to assume that it's a spammer, however..............
