Hello all,
New Forum Advertisement Banners Becoming Activated
As seen in VOTE: Ideas to Help Blur Busters, forum advertisements was one of the popular votes, along with Patreon and other ideas. Blur Busters is now putting some of these ideas into action.
To help cover the expenses of operating Blur Busters, Blur Busters is gradually activating banner advertisements on the Forums this week. You will see layout changes.
In this era of COVID-19 and other costs -- which hurts Blur Busters -- Fortunately everyone is safe and everybody is teleworking.
Blur Busters need additional advertising to help as a source of revenues to cover additional costs, since Blur Busters is far more than just a website, and need to cover research & development costs too. Including things like my inventions (many free) as well as services. We've got many more projects becoming incubated.
For those who dislike ads, you can use an ad blocker (I reluctantly permit this, I understand) or watch for our upcoming 100% Optional Patreon (donate money to disable our advertisements). I'd prefer it if you support Blur Busters, though! The Patreon is not yet ready as it requires custom website changes to be integrated -- however, it will provided as an option for users who desire to disable advertisements.
Just bear in mind there are mouths to feed, rents/mortgages to pay for, and other costs -- Blur Busters is a full time job that has multiple contractors working for me now. After all, Blur Busters is a labour of love and passion, but needs to also survive too!
So -- if you see bugs with advertisements (e.g. they overlap things and can't be dismissed), then please let me know in this forums. Also, if you see a problematic advertisement that should not be there, send me a PM immediately. Problematic ads will be zapped unceremoniously with photon missiles from the Blur Busters UFO turrets.
