Sneak Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 To whoever set up the forum - you should put a google adsense banner on the top - with the user activity I judge you would be able to earn around 5$ per day if forum users help a bit.

Lunicant Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I don't want any money for the forum thanks. Also google are tetchy about advertising on forums and I don't want to ruin the relationship I already have with them. Also inciting users to click banners not only harms the pay per click industry but it is violation of google's terms and conditions and, if they severed their contract with me, I would lose much much more than the money this forum might generate. Besides - let's keep it free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneak Posted January 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Hehe - I was more thinking it could help pay the connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chayesh Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Once the MUD is moved to Lunicant's server, there won't be any monies needed to pay for a host. Discussions among the IMMs as to whether donations will be still be needed/accepted is ongoing, as funds may be accepted and used for things like advertising or for funding the "creative expression" fund (translation: the beer fund) or buying Luni's child something cute.

Sneak Posted January 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 A one way ticket. Lol. Btw Luni what was your most expensive domainname sold? Not looking for figures but the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunicant Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Dunno really - I tend to sell packages of earning domains. Single name though was probably subscriptions(dot)co(dot)uk for $14,000 but I have sold packages for high 5, low 6 figures at a time. Have a 7 figure sale pending but would mean pretty much starting all over again as it's for about 3000 domains. My entire portfolio consists of about 4500ish domains and that took a LONG time to build up. So much as I appreciate the offers of donations they are not essential for me. The idea of advertising the mud is a nice one and it would be interesting to see how many new players it would bring in. I'm planning on passing about 10,000 visitors per day looking for games through the website for a few weeks to see how that would affect the numbers. We are heading for exciting times I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneak Posted January 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Before that I think it should be a bit easier for new players to see how they get things started - when they visit the website theres a lot of thing they have to figure out. Whats a mud, how do you play, how do you connect, why is it cool etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
