Default Covering the server costs...

Hi!

As you all know Abandonia has recently been moved to a new host. A much better one with lots of bandwidth. However, unfortunately these things don't come free :?

Last few days were pretty disastrous, income-wise, and if it keeps going at this rate I won't be able to cover the expenses!

I won't be extorting any money from you :whipped: but I did a little maths, and calculated that if every active forum member clicked on an add twice a day, that would be sufficient to cover the server costs!

I hope its not too much to ask!! I hate doing this, but it is kind of critical

Thanks!

Tnx. Just don't overdo it... I might get banned if they register more than 10 clicks from 1 I.P. address.

We shall prevail :P

Don't worry, Kosta, I'm right on to it....even though I'm not really keen on finding 'sexy singles' in my area. ops:

Do you only need to click the ad what happens if u close the window before it fully loads?


Edit : Btw kosta when ever i download a game the add that should be just above the download link never shows up. i dont know if the problem is on your end or my end tho, but just so u know.

ill just click the adds from the frontpage

What? You don't like auhsor and Woodlander? :P

But seriously.
If you try the ads on the frontpage, you'll see that some of them are actually very promising. :mrgreen:

Default Hey!

You're so right. I clicked around the front page adds and came across a site for interactive fiction, something I'm into.

Join the clickathon, folks, and help keep Abandonia going. Remember what the world was like before we found Abandonia? Brrr.... :evil:
