You can make us look but you can't make us click.
clicking on the ads is the only way you are supporting the site.
That's true. It's called 'traffic'. Advertisers always look for signs of interest. Not neccessarily buying, but if there's interest, then the possibilities of doing business is there and they will pay to advertise. So yes, if you click, you support this site. But unless you intend to buy, don't go too far. Maybe a few purchases will go a long way also, in keeping the ads interested, thus establishing a relationship with UK. I think UK needs to tap into more traffic themselves to make paid advertisements work more in thier interests in keeping this site funded. Maybe you guys need to put out a few ads yourself (or some kind of trade off) to let people know you exist. This site seems to be a pretty tight group though, so you need to weigh whether you want more outsiders coming in vs. keeping it sort of your own little club. If you commercialize though, rules will probably have to get tight also. Now your talking about a for profit site, instead of a bunch of good friends. So maybe the cap, t-shirt and sweatshirt with UK logo stuff on it might be the way to go, to help pay for better services. But what the hell do I kow. Just a few thoughts. Always glad to help.
I'll never trust this' team again.
