Recently we were blocked from Adsense, which was the main way me and Troy covered the costs for the forum and also what we used to fund the various contests we had. To supplement that revenue I was playing with various other ad networks trying to recoup some of funds we used to make from Google. Finding a viable alternative didn't go over so well, Pop Ups and the main reason slow performance has caused us to make the decision to go ad free at this time as we continue to work with Google on getting ad serving re enabled on the site. The forum costs us $100 a month which myself and Troy are happy to pay but any help with VIP purchases would be greatly appreciated. So if you were thinking about going VIP in the past now would be a great time to make the jump as it would help us absorb some of the costs.
