• 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.....

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


    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....

Perhaps one way we could boost up contributor levels is to limit the chat room to contributors only? Perhaps make the chat room a perk for those who are contributing members?:shrug01:
 
Judging by the lack of responses..perhaps not a good idea? BUT think how much revenue for the site it would generate and how much it would cut down on the number of kids (unless they had access to payment options!) :)

It would also ensure that if any were trying to conduct business in the chat room, that everyone had a method of payment! :)
 
My guess is that it would just kill participation in the chat room. And I'd be accused of being a MGA in the process.... :rolleyes:
