Quote from main site Homepage:
Due to the huge costs of running the forums I have had to resort to advertising banners, this sucks I know, but I have to find some way of funding the Community Forums.
More about this:
The database size is now growing into a critical issue. It's grown a lot over the years and is now eating through my space and already uses the largest percentage of my total available web space.
I am left with little choice but to take on Ads/Banners or I can delete the database and start a fresh forum again. Or members can help keep the site as is by purchasing Ad/Banner free accounts.
Advert/Banner free viewing is available for a small yearly fee, please contact me about this if you are interested.
Cost = £20 per year.
(All monies go into keeping the Forum running & paying the fees generated by the forum.)
Any member purchasing Ad/Banner free viewing will be given a link to a Password Protected version of the forum.
Anyone caught sharing a Password protected Ad/Banner free account will loose their privileges for that account and forfeit their payment.
As a Valued Community Contributor you will be given a rank image to show you support the community.
Taz.
