It's About The Horse

This is a free forum and with it come ads. So sorry...I wish I were made of money and I'd buy it, I think it's like $80/year to buy.

When you post, the last person on a thread will have an ad in their post UNTIL someone else posts. Then your signature should join the rest of your post.

maybe once our numbers get established you could divide the cost ~$80, by how many there are of us, and we could all put in that much, so if there are 80 of us on here it would be $1 each.

but then again the adds aren't that bad.

One of the things I've found is that they use Google and scan your board for key words. As you notice, most of the ads are already about horse tack, equipment, feed, etc.

We'll only get sexy ads from the Adult Humor Forum....LOL

I was on another forum that did this-there was actually a way for each member to pay into a money chest on the forum.

It worked out great!

At the rate people are joining it certainly won't be much! LOL

I'd be happy to donate too, I'll have about $20.00 extra a month just laying around pretty soon...

The ads are funny though and sometimes even helpful

I don't see any adds?

I wonder if Firefox blocks them??

Right now I have an add for a Parelli Westernsaettel with umlauts over letters :shock: Not quite as entertaining as yesterdays Chronic Bedwetter ads :lol:

Paypal donations rock, peeps chip in a couple bucks, problem solved. Account runs out, ads come back. Easy peasy

Firefox tends to block em

.

Right now according to the host of these forums (myfastforum.org) there is no limit to how big we can grow. So i dont think there is a whole lot of a reason to change to a payed version especialy right now.

If carol would have to start paying im sure we are all willing to chip in

.
But thats all up to Carol

As for the ads, it wouldn't take but $80 Grant. I believe that is what Carol said. By this afternoon,
(YEAH this BABY is GROWIN'!!), it could be as simple as having 81 members, Carol excluded, paypal
$1 and poof they'd be gone! Someone mentioned it would be easy to set something up using paypal.

But again, they don't bother me. But if they bother others, I'm in for the donation!
