SMBC Ad Fad.
Haha. Instead of people paying to have their advertisements reach the regular users of the forum, it seems that the initial flow of income will be from the Forum users themselves! What fools these people be!
HAHAHAHAHA.
Seriously. When REAL advertisements start coming in, shouldn't we start clicking them? If someone doesn't notice real traffic coming in from the advertisement, they will decide to pull it.
WE ALL KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY ZACH IS LACKING.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
Zach set it up in part so that we could do this.
From the IM conversation we had:
[21:44] WizToast: DAWG
[21:44] RetsnimdeCorp: SUP!
[21:44] WizToast: how do you think the geeks would feel if i put an ad banner or two in the forum?
[21:44] RetsnimdeCorp: Angry and scared?
[21:45] RetsnimdeCorp: Hang on, lemme ask a few.
[21:45] RetsnimdeCorp: Frostbite wonders where?
[21:46] RetsnimdeCorp: NeglectedShoe would be fine.
[21:46] RetsnimdeCorp: Oldrac wants a 20% cut.
[21:46] WizToast: probably at the bottom of the page
[21:47] RetsnimdeCorp: Frostbite supposes he would not mind.
[21:47] RetsnimdeCorp: So, we got three people saying it's okay.
[21:47] RetsnimdeCorp: Would you be personally approving the ads?
[21:47] RetsnimdeCorp: Or would they be ProjectWonderful things?
[21:48] WizToast: project wonderful
[21:48] WizToast: and, in point of fact, probably relatively low price most of the time
[21:48] WizToast: so, if the geeks wanted to talk smack about each other on the banner
[21:48] WizToast: that'd be fine by me

Curse you facts!
Well, that's why I put it in New Spamlandia rather than discussion. The Man, typically you, Ed, liked to put me down.

Sometimes I like to think that you're the most run-down and tragic man in the world, Ahmet.

To build something up is to watch it be brought down. The moment life emerges, it begins its march towards death.
LOL DOG. EMO UP IN THIS BIZZLE.
Seriously, paying for a forum. I could be getting some blow right now if I wanted to spend money on a quick and pointless pastime.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
I think it is fantastic.
It is out of the way enough that it doesn't bother my board viewing at all, yet it does still catch my attention.
But more than anything, I think it is great for the reasons Zach mentioned.
It is a way for us to give him money in small increments, and to have fun doing it.
I love it.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
Good Nye, the tower ads on the main SMBC page are running at $20 a day!
That's compared to $4 on Overcompensating and $1 on Goats (but you have to scroll down to see that one.)

Police said they spent some time working out if they could charge the man with being armed with a weapon, as technically he was armed with part of a fish.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
What program are you guys using to chat, and what channel? I want to chat with random people I have become acquainted with over the internet!

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
I use live. I think it's so weird that people still use AIM, because I think I can name one person that I know in person who uses it; and he's VERY LONELY (maybe).

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
I use MSN usually. I know only a couple people in RL with AIM, whereas most people I know have MSN. To contrast, of all the people I've met on the Interwebs, so far only two have had MSN, and both also had AIM.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
I only got AIM because a friend got free IM on her phone, and she's bored as hell at work.
I'll use MSN or AIM, but they're all the same email address.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
I like AIM better because it has less potential for blinding fonts. My friend had a flashing animation of Avril Lavigne programmed into her MSN to show up every time she said no for a while. She did it to annoy me, mind you.

Re: SMBC Ad Fad.
Before this forum, I knew two people who used ICQ, and one person (from Australia) who used MSN. Everybody else, without exception, used AIM.
