Re: [AGA-sc] AGA banners on forum?



Ugh, I HATE wasting real estate on forums for banner ads. We're already promoting them in the announcements section. But it sounds like I'm in the minority. As long as it's not difficult to do then.

btw:

The forum is over 300 members but it
is certainly a work in progress.

Keep in mind that our 300 members are "real" members. I tweaked the software itself so that the scammers and spammers, and other "never active" accounts don't count towards that number. When I did this, it dropped by ~25%. I suspect that some of the other ones (such as AB) count anyone who's ever clicked the "Register" button. I don't understand why the software does this by default -- maybe to inflate the ego of BBS operators the same way they count hits by search engines as legitimate people.
