JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

 This is great, maybe this place will survive after all. After all it's been through, it deserves to.

I have some suggestions for spending money:


  • An API, so that we don't have to scrape and parse HTML 40 posts at a time anymore,
  • an image hosting service of our very own, one that doesn't try to obnoxiously pivot into "social media" like imgur, or disappear like tinypic or imageshack, or burst into flames like waffleimages,
  • the ability to sell individual posts on the blockchain as Non Fungible Tokens.
  • Don't do that last one.

 Too often the ads would be serving malware, and then you had to post in some QCS thread and LT would talk to his "ad guy" to fix it.

Yeah, nah. Adblock it is.
