Budget
Since we have the ads I think that it would only be fair to see where that money goes to
Note that the current ad revenue is from the 8/9/2006 and since I placed the ads today this means that money comes from the other sites on the network.
Update 1 (7 October 2006)
AD revenue is at 90.13$
October GOOD
November GOOD
December Not There
Other:
Google image ads disabled
Update 2 (29 October 2006)
AD revenue is at 116.51$
October GOOD
November GOOD
December Not There
Update 3 (12 November 2006)
AD revenue is at 135.90$
October PASS
November GOOD
December Almost There
Note:
From January server price will drop to about 35 - 38 $
Update 4 (25 November 2006)
AD revenue is at 160.56$
October PASS
November GOOD
December GOOD
Extras will be moved to next budget.

You never had to pay anything and it will always stay the same. For most of you guys you have been using saphiraforums.com on the current server and I never asked nothind from you and I will never do.
I just thought that it would be good so that you all knew where that money goes to.
"To Mike: You should start doing that, or are you scared that we discover that you are not using the 2500$ on your site"
Please do no post too much on this topic, I will be cleening it once in a while.

There will never be a fee, I know that I would never pay to access a forum, then why should I make people endure what I don't like myself.

Yeah, I get the impression Louis doesn't want donations. Which is very very kind of him If he was doing it for money- you'd get charged for being here.

no comment .... I have an agreement with the ad company, so you should not talk about that. This is considered to be a no no in the agreement.

I am sorry to tell you that, but this is not true. If I don't have enough time then I can't add anything. Most web programs online are free anyway and we have the server covered preety good. We would have to find another to make the site better that does not involve any body donating something, and it should have to ever come.
