yoshifumi said:how is this forum affording the server costs anyways? i thought we were going to have some sort of donation system up by now
WasabiKing said:That was done back in May, and we raised enough to cover about a year's worth of expenses. Google Ads are shouldering some of those expenses, and we're looking into some other possible revenue streams. I'm speaking for myself, and not the other mod/system admins, but I would hate to rely on users to solely fund the forums through donations. That's really the last straw...
As we move forward, you'll see more announcements. In the meantime, it's kinda nice to get the plugs from some of the heavy hitters, this is a nice stress test.

Posting links to GAF on gamefaqs or IGN should be a suspend worthy offense.
Eh, upfront costs were a tad greater than expected... talked with EviLore recently about actual cash in the account.WasabiKing said:That was done back in May, and we raised enough to cover about a year's worth of expenses.

I was here when the number of visitors was just over 1000 and it seemed to be running okay.Hitokage said:What I want to know is how well the server was running with that amount of users.
