Eric, if I want to buy a "pass" to make an announcement what's that going to run me? Is it even available? [email protected]  |
JD you will have an email shortly. This is something that was already thought out.

why should they continue to do that?
nobody reads the other forums, this is the forum
Furthermore
Now the only spam we will see will be paid for spam from big programs, not much variety there IMO
I think this new rule will be counterproductive.
And the reason you did this is because your paid advertisers bitched that there was too much spam?
hmm
I think there is too many bullshit retarded posts as compared to spam or program announcements.
anyways, end of rant

"Big Programs?" There are plenty of smaller programs that advertise on GFY, did I say Top Banner Advertisers only? No.

Where does the budget for a SKIN come into play. I said NON-ADVERTISERS. That means the little guy who can only afford a smaller banner at the bottom of GFY and is still building his program has the same rights to post their program announcements in the main forum.

I would gladly pay $19.99 a month to be able to post here. Think about it please.

We spoke earlier today, you will already be covered. As you know this is not a lot of money to spend to have this benefit you.
