So how much we talking 5-10 grand? I can't really see it costing that much I heard moderators and shit don't get no pay either at least say's one guy who said he was one before.Its called the site owner finally trying to turn a profit after a decade of investment paying huge server fee's .
The monthly server bill for this place would make you shit yourself , my guess is their messing around with the ad format but they are here to stay .
I know what you mean, I get attached to mine.I'm extremely adverse to change. I even recycle my toilet paper.
No moderator gets paid anything for working here & its allways been that way , even the global mods like greatwhitenorth, fdd2blk , sunni ect are unpaid volunteers & do their work for free .So how much we talking 5-10 grand?

Yeah, no point keeping a sight up and running if it costs you $10 grand a year out of your pocket. And he makes some extra cash why not? Can't turn down free money.No moderator gets paid anything for working here & its allways been that way , even the global mods like greatwhitenorth, fdd2blk , sunni ect are unpaid volunteers & do their work for free .
The only figures ive seen for server costs were from the V Bulliten Admins forum , i read where an admin of another site was paying over $10k per month but his site has streaming video & interactive menu.
Even if the server costs for riu were as low as $10,000 a year thats a pretty huge cost to absorb year after year just for the purpose of maintaining a site that generates zero income, i hate these stupid ads too but its hard to blame the owner for trying to turn a profit with this site .
Gunners taking this muthafucker down....hold on tight cabrones.Wtf went from no ads for years now they are everywhere? Well glad RIU got some source of income other then from the DEA but seriously they are everywhere! Can I donate to make them go away?
I will provide you with yourHey guys, as you know we have started to put up ads on the site and we have based it off the pc display, we are aware the mobile users may have some difficulties since the launch of the ads, however we will be fixing this problem after the weekend. However I do apologize for the inconveniences it has caused.
It's not his fault his parents named him Jaime...Stop acting so white it's foo, my nigga!
My name ain't jaime it's iloveskywalkerog.It's not his fault his parents named him Jaime...
Yeah, I would go by a nickname as well if my name was Jamie like J-Roc. lolMy name ain't jaime it's iloveskywalkerog.
Normally i hate hearing people say my nigga but the way you say it theres some kinda Charles Bronson shit going on where it sounds " Hip " .Stop acting so white it's foo, my nigga!
What type device do you use for riu , im using a phone & the 1st post on every page is 2 letters wide in a single column if i hold the phone long ways , if i hold it the other way the posts are perfect , kinda strange .Damn these ads are really pissing me off. I was back for a few days now and enjoying it and was starting to get my Stella groove back. Hell I even dropped a nice old man erection pic the other night -dude had a huge old cock- but I may have to leave this site alone until these disappear. They're all over my shit and it's hard to scroll up or down on the screen and read anything.
