Go right ahead is my opinion. Although sites with technically literate audiences tend to have very poor clickthu rates.

So it's likely that this could work very well then.

Go ahead and do it. If people don't like it then they can always just block the i-frame with adblock plus.

What kind of expenses are you talking about covering (aka, numerical amounts)? I'd prefer to not have ads on this website. Ads make any website look unproffessional; or pretty much just shows you are money hungry. Usually a combination of the two. But if it's necessary to keep the mod going I'd say yes.

I really do wonder what kinda expenses have to be made here..
This entire mod has always been done by people with to much tim..... I mean, by people who really just enjoy making games or something..

But I don't see the expenses that come with haven, save the server payments required for testservers. But I thought Billeh bob arranged that. (YES HE USED TO CALL HIMSELF BILLEH BOB LOLOLOLOL)
