I know why this simp wants no ads. Look at all of the failed websites Lewis and Clark has tossed out there. I've never seen so many failed attempts at public self-loating. The thought of someone succesfully maintaining a site must burn his globe traveling britches. The only thing that needs to be denied here is more hippy recipes from Chef Squid.pinback wrote:No ads, and nobody send him any money.

If I ever put together a website that succeeded, I'd run out of ammunition for my persistent self-loathing, which provides whatever meager content I can come up with on that string of net.abortions.
The mere concept, though, of this man putting together a website which people actually visit, and read, and contribute to, and enjoy, turning around and trying to mooch off us, or otherwise subject us to the very thing many of us come here to avoid, that being rampant net commercialism, is so vile and distasteful that it is enough to make me want to gack on the carpet like a cat, complete with all of the requisite funny sounds, like "nngk-achh! nnngk-achh!! nnngk-achh!" Like that.
Hey, fuckface, how about just paying the $150 a goddamn year, with your new high-paying job, and let us fucking continue to enjoy the one fucking place on the internet that doesn't make us sick for the normal reasons, but instead makes us all sick for completely different, yet tantalizingly unique, reasons.
Fucking ads. Get the fuck outta here.

You did run a place that succeeded.

I am glad that you enjoy the two posts a day it gets now.The mere concept, though, of this man putting together a website which people actually visit, and read, and contribute to, and enjoy, turning around and trying to mooch off us, or otherwise subject us to the very thing many of us come here to avoid, that being rampant net commercialism, is so vile and distasteful that it is enough to make me want to gack on the carpet like a cat, complete with all of the requisite funny sounds, like "nngk-achh! nnngk-achh!! nnngk-achh!"

What? Who? Is this me? Or Knuckles?Hey, fuckface, how about just paying the $150 a goddamn year
Yeah, I posted that thing about ads before I got hired. There's no way to "take it back" once the ad genie gets out of the bottle, but I really wanted to make this the last place on the Internet that essentially told you "SEND US MONEY." The world would be complete for you, unless you decided to go to Caltrops, which will remain ad-free.with your new high-paying job, and let us fucking continue to enjoy the one fucking place on the internet that doesn't make us sick for the normal reasons, but instead makes us all sick for completely different, yet tantalizingly unique, reasons.

ADS I WANT ADS! One of you underachieving nerds actually finds a way to make a little hero-clicks spending cash and you won't do it? Who gives a shit about a banner ad. Whatever ad you throw on here I will purchase something from that company and tell them "I FOUND IT ON JOLTCOUNTRY" when they stare blankly and ask "What is a Joltcountry?" I will reply "Never thee mind, more horsecock and guide's to internet money scheme's for all!"
ADS ADS ADS I WANT MORE ADS. I WILL PAY YOU $10 a month to promote MEEEEE!!
What's your beef pinback? Are you taking a stand? Is this the last safe internet haven? RRRROBBB I'm your friend and don't want you profitting from something you put your valuble free time into. Robbb why did you even ask? I know Milker wants ads. Shall we put it to a vote????

Well, truth to tell it was only like $14 a month for a landline back then. I don't remember what 14x12 is, but it's around 156, so we'll just round up/down and say it's close. Qwest in Colorado wants $50 for one, and that's getting off CHEAP out here.nessman wrote:Jesus RobB... when the hell did you start to go cheap Jew on us?
If you factor in inflation, $156/yr is peanuts compared to what you were shelling out to those fuckwits at Ogden Tel back in the dial-up modem BBS days.
But again, lost in all this, I would like to stress that I made my original post when it looked like I was going to be in for a long stretch of unemployment, because my "sure thing" wasn't looking so certain. Battle conditions have changed. I am almost certain I already wrote this, but I think it got lost in the shuffle somehow.
