    **************************************************
    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Hey I know this is a long shot but everytime I log on I see that "most logged on at one time" and I want to break it. I figured I would have to bring this up in advance. I want to break that record on the 4th of july. I think it would be fitting. Kinda of show our independence in being able to own what ever we want. Either way I think it would be cool. Pass it on, mark it on the calander or what not. I know its a long shot but oh well.

Goal 5000 people log on at one time sometime during 1201pm through 1pm July 4th 2013.

Figure everyone could stay on for that hour or so and hopfully we will break it.

Thanks for reading.
 
Honestly, holidays are generally not a real active time here. Many people go outside and DO something with family and/or friends. Heck, there is generally even a noticeably drop in traffic on the weekends, which indicates to me that a lot of people are spending a lot of time here from their computers at work... :rofl:

Seriously, I think that high number shown for max concurrent users is bogus anyway, as I believe it was actually from a spammer blitz at that time. It's happened in the past and I had my programmer reset the number in the database to try to keep the number *real*. But I just haven't seen the need to bother him with that sort of stuff lately.

Truth be known, it looks like traffic has been slowing down across most sites that I see in my FaunaTopSites listing. :shrug01:
 
I figured i would give it a shot. THough maybe something simi-fun could help but maybe not. Just trying to get more interactive with the forums. Im not some big wig so. Oh well. Thanks for the info.
