I tried to find the weeny thread on the adverts in the BS section. But, to no avail so I thought I would start a new thread.

Here's the deal. Today, I checked out a thread and adverts came up as they do. Yeah, sometimes my cursor flickers and I have to spend literally several seconds of my busy life waiting for them to load before I can read what Little Hawk has posted about Bill The Magnificent. I resumed regular scheduling but thought of sommat I could add to the thread so I hit the forward button and different ads came up.

Now, every time these ads come up, Max (YOU on accounta Max don't MAKE no money) gets a millionth of a penny. If one clicks on the ad, Max gets two millionths of a penny (I am guessing at the actual figures). So, if ya wanna support this here Café FOR FREE... click, click, click, click, click...

How long does it take? Maybe as much as several seconds and it doubles YOUR revenue, sooooooooo, CLICK fer ****sake.

I remember the donation drives when this site was struggling. Spaw and others would... ah, er, um... voice, yeah, voice their reasons why Mudcatters should donate, buy t-shirts, participate in the auction... cough up some coin ya cheap bastards... oh, that was me.

All ya gotta do is click a few. Heck, you can just hit the back and forward while yer talkin on the phone eh?

Seriously, it helps everyone here. Even me, so click a few for gnu. Say, thats a good fund raisin campaign slogan.

So, fuck playin solitaire for just a few minutes a week or get off the porn sites for three or four hours a day and help US. CLICK A FEW EH?

Copied from Facebook:

"Traffic on mudcat.org is up 35% from last year.... Speaking of funding... did you know that clicking on the ads on mudcat.org is the easiest way for you to help fund its growth, longevity and awesomeness?"

Oh. Hadn't realised that when I did the Lady Gaga rant recently. No, go right ahead, click back and forth as much as you can, just as long as it keeps this site up and running.

All I ask is - I really don't care if ads for Lady Gaga come along, just keep the politicoes out of it!

If it were just 'regular' ads, I could cope...but Amaz**n slows down loading for long seconds....sometime 20-30 seconds. I do not see why they have to load 47 links.
