Phoenix Network Forums

I was thinking about offering a ad free version of the forums if one donated at least 15$. What are you thoughts on this?

i have no problems with ads since i think im used to it. evrywhere we go in the net there is alwsy an ad. eheheheh

anyways,ads are for the benefit of the phoenix community financialy, so i dont have any problems with that, its our way to help out.

i totally agree on this...

I don't think you'd get a lot of cash this way - people do primarily come here in order to get a free shell.

It doesn't cost you a cent to try it out, so you might as well try it.

it won't be worth the effort if no one signs up ;p

There's nothing wrong with offering an ad-less version for donaters, as long as you kept this one around. I doubt it would be very successful, though...A few of the more well-off members might donate, but I wouldn't expect too much.

You can try doing this , but seriously i don`t know who will pay 15 $ to see forum without ads... because as pugrit said, anywhere on the net you can find ads.. and ads on your site helps me.. and by clicking on them i help you

The forum ads aren't really annoying, I think most of the users wouldn't mind seeing them, and all of us know that you need ads to pay some of the bills. It will be good to have an ad-free version for those who want it, but if we take in mind that not many people will use it, maybe it doesn't worth the effort.
Personally if I had money to donate I'd prefer to stay with the ads and let you decide for what to spend the donation.

Yes, I agree with him. The ads colors are composed very good, so it is not annoying. And we (your members) are here to get free shells, and to make a comunnity. If we have money (for my example, i don`t, because I am a student, i need money ), we will pay for shell approx. 15$ per month... But we are here because we don`t have this money (I speak in my name). If there are users who can pay, then I suggest you to make a poll

Have you ever received a donation?

yes, quite a few
