Revenue ?
« on: 20 June 2023, 02:31:29 pm »
Random question.
I notice on the top of each forum page there are pop ups of various ad's.
If I click on these randomly does it help the forum with funds ?
I enter the Free Post Code Lottery and that is how they raise money. Is this the same ?

No. It doesn't help with funds. If they did produce revenue for anyone but the forum hosts then I can assure you that revenue wouldn't make it to the forum because I would keep it for myself. Why not?

We don't need funds anymore because we don't do anything anymore. I doubt this forum raises much revenue anyway. Going by how it's taken someone almost 2 years to answer your question shows than no one reads this crap and even fewer give a rat's arse about it. If we did need funds then I suppose we could rent this space out so people could slander and defame people, safe in the knowledge that they'd never be taken to court over it because no fucker would ever see it.

Of course, if you want to slander or defame someone, it is important to ensure that what you say about them has no basis in truth whatsoever.

I, and someone else, have actually answered someone's query on here today! Is this a one off random event, or the start of a revival?

Oh, definitely a revival. Months later and here I am replying. I estimate that, at this rate, the forum will be fully revived and back to the old rate of posting byt 2056.  >Htlr<

And the chance of me still being around then is zero squared.

On the other hand, the old scrap heap might make its centenary (well, some of it anyway).
