Outgoing advertisment - how to make running costs less donation dependant.

(1/1)

ErnestGaskin:
I have been using a service for my blogs, that converts a link into one with an advertisment in it, so i could squeeze some caps worth of my trouble.

Now i noticed that it offers scripts that convert all the outgoing links automaticaly, and remembered this site could actually use this; for it would not disturb the forums itself, but could provide advertisment outside of it.
 
With the traffic here (or at least the last time i have been around) im pretty sure it would pay for most of the hosting fees just from the forums.

Just the suggestion.

Ganado:
Not sure exactly what you mean, but if it involves anything that would actually help pay for server that isn't 100% a donation, it probably is not legal.

ErnestGaskin:
oh.

even as far as the money is not actually a requirement for playing the game?

what if this "service" is put up by a private party that donates it all via conventional means?

edit,

oh and what i mean is:

whenever there is an outoing link on this forum, it could get automatically "cloaked" to go through a commercial break; lets say i post a link of a cute fonline kitten, http://www.imagebanana.com/img/hfwisqa/Bild2.png , but the website itself (seeing that the domain of the link is different from its own, therefore an outgoing link) converts it to this http://f01bd226.miniurls.co link, ultimately leading to the desired destination, just stopping along the way for a few seconds.

Horatio:
What's about the running costs for maintaining the forum?
