  • Ads are returning

    This site is entirely free for its users and at the moment I am paying to maintain it - so it costs me to run it and I don't pay myself anything (can I hear violins? )

    For the long term I do need the site to generate income so ads are returning after the break since the forum upgrade late last year.

    Google has changed the way ads work so I will need to fine tune how they appear. I'm sure chanes will happen - so please be patient.

    Feedback is always welcome though - please send me a PM if you would like to.

    I appreciate that the forum needs paying for. Advertising seems to be the most popular way now-a-days.

    We had adverts in the old forum. No reason why there shouldn't be here.

    The only other option would be for members to pay for an advert free forum. That may put members off.

    Adverts aren't so bad. Just my thoughts !

      I'm certainly willing to offer this as an option - deciding how much to ask for though is a very difficult one!

            I have kept it as simple as I can but please look at this forum's updated privacy policy:
