I'd be surprised if the creators wouldn't gladly donate their "couple of bucks" to the Poly Cause. I know I would...

ads on apolyton are effective: they pay the bills....

Oh, but you could get higher income by getting 100% of the earnings, rather than just a small part of what the advertising agency gets paid.

Of course, without that advertising agency, they wouldn't get payed per view of a pop-up or per click on a banner, now would they?

Nah. Just getting fed up with all this advertising that isn't really effective and with Panag who keeps pushing for more stupid ideas.

Frankly, as long as Poly delivers eyeballs, the ads are effective enough, and a small price to pay for participation in this site IMHO.

Re Panag, I'm thinking he could use a marketing team -- or at least a decent publicist. His content contributions are generally ineffectual, yet somehow he still manages to consistently annoy. Probably due to his goofy "HAND" sign-off and oddball avatar...

Neither do I enjoy this place as much before, as nowadays I have the reputation of an egghead around here.

Hey, it's just like TV, Ras. You can always change the channel/URL. Oh, and don't worry, I certainly don't think of you as an egghead, although rumor has it yours is somewhat ovoid in shape...

I'm waiting for the day when ACS will introduce something else than more CafePress stuff or ads.

Like what?

Subscription / donation services.
Hopefully for a banner / popup-free surfing experience.

Sounds good to me.

[Alexander's Horse]

I often ponder whether I should spend more of my vast wealth on this site.

[Skanky Burns]

Such a difficult decision, isn't it AH.

How was Europe, btw?

here is the problem I have with ads.

[FlameFlash]

Why is that a problem, you're getting one less!

[Alex]

If this site becomes subscribed-only, I'm outta here.

[DrSpike]

Stop whinging. It has already been said several times that any subscription model considered will not be compulsory, and the main services will remain free to all.
