Well....I'm adverse to seeing you take on advertisement. Because of the control you give up.

That said...I don't pay much attention to advertisement anyway.

I'd just as soon...see the non-paying FREEPER's pony up...$3 a month.

FWIW-

It costs almost $2.00 to process a donation.

For those of us who post frequently, it's already onerous enough to try to avoid copyright infringement...while the ads wouldn't bother me, I'm also against your giving up control which it seems would be part of the ad package.

I'd agree.

Jim, one thing I've wondered during the past week or so...is there any way to discover how many of the FReepers who are trying to wrest control of the content of FR from you donate to the site? I'm really disgusted with the constant diatribes against you and the continued posting of Romney support against your oft-stated rule against this support.

I recall a certain group of posters a couple of years ago who proudly proclaimed they would withhold donations unless you censored their pet subject being discussed. Somehow, many of them are no longer here since you didn't bow to their demands and despite their threats to "bring FR down", we're still here.

I also think a "$" next to the FReeper handle while I would approve, might be a tad discriminatory.

Frankly, I think freeloaders could afford the price of a Starbuck's once a month in order to participate on the best conservative site on the internet. That said, if they want to join in with the "I deserve that YOUR money is MY money Obama-mindset" it's on them.
