Well done Altnation another new user scared off. You can all pat yourselves on the back for being a good bunch of people.

By the way I've deleted there account at there request, nice bit of bullying hope your all proud of yourself.

I was being honest, I just had the balls to man up and ask. It doesn't make a difference to me either way, might as well get it out up front.

Figured as much but wasn't 100% sure.

Aw. One less person looking at your adverts.

I could lose half the page views on this place and I'd still make the same money of the adverts so, no that's not quite the reason. In fact I've already stated to the mods I'd rather have 50% less posts and views and a better attitude on this site.

[MarkMono]

alternative ppl act just as much like chavs.

The internet is full of cunts, and the real world is full of cowards.

I'd prefer some sort of middle ground, but given the choices I'd rather just get on with both as best I can.

What are the other options? Isolation or constant whining?

If you got rid of the adverts you'd get a better attitude because we wouldn't have to block them all the time have them cluttering our screens.

The spelling and punctuation in parts of this thread = appalling. Must try harder.

You could always sponsor the site. I don't remember the last time I saw adverts.

This thread is a real shambles. I am surprised Forbes is being as reasonable as he has been above. I am not sure I would if it were my site.

[MarkMono]

Depends how much you think of it as 'his'.

No offense intended Forbes, I assume you know that though.

£30 a year.

Supply and demand, in my opinion, would place purchases of 'Sponser Status' at a purely altruistic level; free advert blocking software services are available easily, and if you want to have unlimited PMs, then simply direct people to your e-mail account.
It makes the purchase a pointless frivolity, bought for altruistic reasons, or possibly as conspicuous consumption. These two reasons alone are not really enough to encourage me to buy anything.

If the price were lowered to a more reasonable level, then perhaps I would buy; for purely convenient reasons, but I would much rather spend five minutes of my time being inconvenienced than, say, five pounds to not.

[MarkMono]

Did you just make a perfectly reasonable argument for being able to ignore the adverts?

[The Butcher]

what did i do?

[CHUCK LIDELOL]

Fuck im.

[Jenpot]

People take this way too seriously. It's clearly obvious they were taking the piss. Plenty of people pointed that out. It's not a big deal, surely?

[JZY]

Its banter tho innit. Theres a new low to be reached when your talking about 'internet bullying' imo, or let yourself be a victim of 'internet bullying' becuase it doesnt exist. Banters banter, and alot of it is taking the piss but, then.. thats life.
