K, sooo, money is tight for john rite now, so we could have an ad clicking marathon tommorow, works well too because its sunday, no school, some of you have off work.
but yeah, we should do this on weekends or rly whenever we're on.
just an idea. kthx.
This again so soon? >.<
I'll click the ads but I'm not sure how much it'll do. Come April we might be fucked anyway if it goes down like last year. :I
John needs to find someone else to host the forum where it isn't $120, what a shame.

he want's to use bluehost, but he'd have to dump this forum. i'd be okay with that.

I wouldn't really mind doing that, clean out the forum of all of the members who are just sitting there with accounts and everything. The only thing that bums is that all of the stats of the forum would obviously be wiped clean but you must take the good with the bad.

I wish I had a paypal account because I would have tried to help out anyway possible.
To those of you saying it would be a good thing to just start over.... What I say to that? FUCK THAT!!!
Do you guys realize how much time and work it was to get this forum the way it is? I don't think I'll ever have the motivation to rebuild a forum like this again ANYTIME soon.. especially knowing all the statistics the past 2 years will be gone... starting back from 0 members? 0 posts? no way...

And remember last year? Over 1/2 of our good members said they wouldn't rejoin if we switched. For most it's either this SZ or no SZ. I'm loyal enough to accept a move but many aren't.

I wouldn't blame them... think of all the posts people have built up... like windle who has almost 10k posts... i certainly wouldnt do that when i had a history of thousands of posts and/or karma. bad bad bad idea.

Nor would I. I'd say restore their stats, but there are a few good problems with that. I'll see what I can do but I doubt I can donate much if any. We can't afford to waste money this month either since we're about $1600 in dept. >.<
I wouldn't like to lose all the history saved up here...so many dear memories just tossed away...
Re-building the site is a terrible idea, put it that way.
I'm certainly not up for Losing everything we've done here.
If I was able to donate, I would. I have the money, I just can't use it online atm.
Anyway, ad clicking time!
Where is darkness when you need him?
-shot-
But seriously...i can only click ads. D:
dammit, i need a bank account.

I don't think it's extremely hard to get one for teenagers. lol
I have a bank account. But I can't get a debit card until I'm 18, apparently.

Yeah, for now I just have a keycard. Allows me to get stuff out but that's it.
I think we should just move to a new forum, which as more features.
