This Site Is Just Not The Same...

Arnt you lucky lol

 

yep im so lucky..LOL

 

Wouldn't surprise me if the only reason Shaggy bought this forum is to make money. Think about it, GR gets alot of visitors; I wonder how much they get through Adsense? Not to mention money from premium and donator memberships. Also he has added link to the four sites he is already running to the header of every page. He is 29 years old, he is married and has a kid with another on the way; how many of you actually think hes into graphics/sigs and anything else that GR is all about?! I highly doubt it, its a money thing, has nothing about the betterment of the community. Sorry just had to say it.

 

it is an investment, honestly lol. Who is going to fork over the kind of money it would take to buy this in order to just virtually throw that money away? Also, staff do NOT need to be involved in what the particular site is about, it does help, but its not required. Your ability to determine whether the comments are wrong or whether they are in the wrong area have no reliance that the given person needs to know about the sites. I dont think ive ever seen Llama or BiG_DaVe do graphics, and a few of the mods dont even touch graphics programs either. Experience in a given area that the site specifies is a good thing, but its not required for a mod to fulfill their duties, not to mention after hanging around a while at any community you get the hang of how things work and such...

 

that is pretty true

 

i remeber hearing either llamaman or dave saying each month this site costs like 5 grand to run


EACH MONTH...thats 60 grand a year

 

no way does this site cost 5K a month... maybe 300-600ish a month.

 

Ya I remember, what happened to BigDave?

i dnt think this site cost anywhere from 300 to 600 a month maybe 300 to 600 a year though

 

There's no way. This site is large enough, that is has to be run on a pretty powerful dedicated box, which wuld cost.... $300-$400 /mo.

 

lol it doesn't cost 5k a year ...hosting last time before the server change for unlimited and independent everything was 156 a month

we have like 2,000 premium members = 10,000 dollars
and i know that Joe made at least over 5,000 from google absense

 

Far too much spam , even after my warning

Moved to Off Topic for the duration , before its finally closed

 

lmao a year... no seriosly i know people that run this forum thats as big as this, costs them almost 800$ a month...

 

now thats alot and shaggy is browsing maybe he should know how much it costs
