I don’t like the obnoxious ads either, but the real drum I’ve been beating lately is subscription. There are a buttload of prolific posters here who aren’t subscribers. They clearly enjoy ENWorld, but evidently haven’t bothered to consider a dollar value for they enjoyment they get.

I think a lot of us have taken quality media for granted for so long that we expect it to be “free”, but those days are long gone. If we want to enjoy something, I think we all need to step up and pay appropriately for it rather than griping that the service needs to include ads or raise prices to survive.

One might suggest that prolific posters should get free perks at a minimum, or at least prolific posters who drive clicks and subs should as they are probably a net positive on the bottom line.

It isn'tlike we can mind-read to know why folks subscribe or click to the next page, dude.

In any event, the ads are intended to help defer costs, but as I understand it the message boards are not intended to be a moneymaker, and so don't need money-making policies.

One might suggest that the day I have to resort to paying people to post is the day I close the forums. At that point, the very concept has catastrophically failed.

Fortunately, we are nowhere near the point where we have to resort to paying you to post. Sorry to disappoint.
