      I didn't make a donation. So I vote for "who cares".

        I dont mind a sponsor here or there.

        Whatever it takes to keep the site going is fine IMO.

            I don't really care if r3v takes on advertisers. If it ends up getting us good deals on parts, and the donaters get their money back etc. Perhaps it is a step in the right direction, it might add some stability to the site. With advertisers spending money, someone couldn't choose to shut the site down at random. Just my $.02

                I'm not going commecial, I will only have 1 banner up at the top of the forum, centered. Same size as the current GIF up there that says "R3VLimited"

                I need to pay for hosting costs, and it would also be nice to get something more back out of the massive amounts of time I spend on the forum taking care of it.

                      I agree.

                      And it doesn't matter what I think anyways. It's Jordan's site. As long as he chooses to keep it running, I don't care if there's advertisements or not.

                        blah, we saved R3V's ass when the time came when we needed to. I'd say I've saved the amount of my donation already buying shit from people here, etc.

                        Hmmm, I forgot to ask my mom if the e-brake handle came. Jordan, you sent it right?
                        That reminds me, I need a leather ebrake boot from Rob.......

                          Who cares?

                          As long as the forum is still here, I could give a rat's ass if there's a banner up top.

                          And I agree with Robert, the donations saved R3V when it was on it's way out, and I think that everyone who donated has gotten more than their money's worth.

                            it shouldn't be a question about donations, it should be a question about, do we want to loose all this info we have regained since the last couple forum changes, i know i don;t want to have to do this alllllllll over again, and with the amount of users and bandwidth we are using now, its for sure going to be costing a little bit more to keep up and running.
