it didn't have anything to do with ammy posting you guys jesus christ

the bots went nuts last week, sppunk reached out to andrew, and andrew took the ads away.

this is like slunken thinking i somehow blocked him from becoming a mod

what do you all actually think goes on in the employees' lounge

i wont say a word i swear

I had to actually check on my phone if this wasn't some mod trolling going on. Thanks guys! Also how does the website make any money at all when every poster and regular lurker uses adblock? I assume people x out when the ads go nuts? Or was it not that crazy on a computer?

Eulogy 03-02-2014 05:14 PM

yeah i've wondered that too. do users have to actually see the ads for the webmaster to get paid or whatever?

i don't know how this shit works

Andrew made the site into an SEO nightmare, so the ad revenue likely isn't coming from the regulars but rather people who stumble through google search results, a good portion of which don't use adblock.

Andrew Pakula has been dead for 4 years, no one has shut off this hosting and his parents have been paying it because THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND ANY OF THIS SHIT.

We should have let the ads take over. Who would even want to read anything on this pile of shit forum from their phones anyway.

i don't think so. though alot of forums (usually much bigger ones) don't like users admitting you're using adblock. they don't care if you do it, they just don't like advertisers knowing you're doing it

Have you guys seen the banners or popups on certain cites that specifically ask or require you to disable ABP? Someone has definitely noticed an impact. Which is why I'm surprised when someone shows me a youtube vid and there's a fucking commercial and I'm like yo what the fuck are you doing? this is 2014. and they're like yeah ads are cool and websites need to make money :dammit:

slunken's disappearance (?) coinciding with the bot wars and the ads announcement is looking suspicious on you. or maybe on him. was slunken half bot half real boy?
