Advertising or no?

[M250cnc]

Hi lee, thanks for your response
I "think" I hear what you are saying

At the risk of being kicked off the forum my feelings are as follows

Please don’t forget that all the members of this forum do what they do out of good will and the joy of helping a struggling soul over a hurdle or two
Without its members this forum would be nothing more than an advert
I’ll assume that most of the members except that bandwidth and sever space needs to be paid for and the "webmasters/moderators" time compensated
What worries me is that on the back of all that good will and hard work we will end up with an orgy of adverts and profiteering instigated and enjoyed by the few who have the power and paid for by the many that in my opinion have the true moral ownership of what mycncuk uses for fuel

I fully except that I may be way off the mark and mycncuk is costing you money to run however you did not express this in your response which naturally leaves me with the feeling that this is not the case

The things I express above are genuine concerns and I express them on this thread as it seems the most relevant to the points i make, I could have expressed them in feedback as you ask but that seems a little out of the public eye and would sooner discuss in an open forum, others may show an interest (id find it rather sad if they didn’t)

So, my question to you considering what it is that everyone else is doing hear, at what point do you run out of good will and need paying for what it is that you do, how much is it you would like paying and would it not be easier to discuss with the members what it is you think you are worth and the best means to satisfy your requirements

This may sound like a very rude question but considering the points I make above it’s not an unfair one

With respect

Well my take was keep it the same, meaning a request for help is not followed by HELLO DEAR WE HAVE NICE MACHINE IN OUR WEBSITE WHICH CAN'T DO WHAT YOU WANT.

But websites/forums are full of ads of other websites advertising stuff, and the internet is full of addons to block those ads should you so choose.

So to me it's not a problem if Lee wants to swamp us with ads "He blogs for food remember"

We can like it or lump it, I guess most will be not bothered me included.

"He blogs for food remember"
