I am still alive and I am (hopefully) not about to die any time soon!

I have been very busy with other projects lately so unfortunately I am not able to dedicate any time for the forum other than doing what is needed to keep it online.

The earnings from the forum are close to nothing, but thankfully the hosting/domain costs aren't that high either, so I have no problem to keep the forum alive for a small loss.

The extra ad was added by Google itself. I will disable it.

The forum has been essentially closed for new members for several years now because I didn't have the time to deal with spammers, so only members who registered years ago are able to post.

I am open to suggestions if some of the active members are interested to become moderators. Maybe somebody who is liked by every currently active member and has a bit of extra time. Don't know if such member(s) exist. If there are, let me know. I will have a bit of time in the 2nd and 3rd week of August to arrange any possible changes.

Thank you!


Long live the Admin! :D

Just saved $300 bucks! :wink: :lol:

You showed your card. If anybody sets it up I will pay the $300 pounds was what you said. I will pay the second years fee.

One question for Admin. How do you make money from adverts? Do we have to click on them and is it per click or is it the same fee under certain numbers of clicks.

I am prepared to click on the adverts if it means some revenue.

Yes Lordo and Kicks are both great guys... but they’re not very computer savvy so they’ll probably be rather lost in front of the Admin control panel!

What about you Ricardo, would you feel comfortable doing it?

Come now GR. What's so hard about managing the dashboard? So long as I do not have to type, right?

If you say you can dear Lordo, then I believe you!

But if you vote for me then the hookers are on me... and you can all take turns on Paphitis free of charge! 8)

If KIcks has the time, my vote goes to Kicks.


Lordo, the position would be for a moderator and not for Admin! :wink:

I think we should have a secret vote for the position of 2 moderators and let the persons with the most votes win.

We are a small group here, but one moderator won’t be able to manage alone, therefore two moderators would be better than one. :D
Naturally, any selected member can decline the position of a moderator if he/she would garner the top 2 voting positions.

Bribing members for their votes shall be allowed! :D

Just like the real thing! :lol:

We could do a poll.... Forum members love a good poll don't we.... Firstly though members should put their names forward and for this we would need a seperate thread running for say 4 days.. Then someone (GR) could do the poll... Could be made anonymous but i don't see the need for that... Anyway thats my 10 shekels worth... Have a nice day everyone

Yes, and that offer still stands, but the Admin said he will keep the forum alive, therefore no new setting up is needed. :D

However, I will be happy to send the money to the Admin for the next renewal of CF just to help out if he/she would PM me with details. :D
