Title: The request for the forum upgrade has been made...
Post by: Thunder Chicken on November 09, 2010, 08:39:52 PM
Some time over the next 24-48 hours the forum willl go down for a short period while the upgrade is completed. We might lose some custom styles (including the random banner up top) but hopefully this will only be a temporary loss. Once the upgrades are in place I'm going shopping for add-ons to enrich our experience...

Well Vinnie, to put your query to rest, the upgrade will consist almost entirely of things and stuff.

I asked the "what upgrades" question through PM and here is the response I recieved:

Quote from: Tunder Chikun;341101
The upgrades consist mostly of huge banners.  After I bought my new snowmobile with excess upgrade funds, I figured I could make a few extra dollars (Canadian) selling advertising to those big exhaust tip folks. 

I will also be charging members to upload photos, use smilies, and the search function.  I haven't decided the fees yet, but I was thinking $5/use or $150 per year flat rate. 

Oh, and I will finally get rid of those  banners at the top and replace them with google ads.  I waiting to hear back from an advertising firm about those double underlined text "links" that pop up the huge window with sound announcing "Congratulations, Your the winner!"  but I still haven't heard back yet.  I cannot believe I have been letting people freeload off me for so long.
