    I think its my forth month on this forum? And I've been loving it. 
    Chatting with other collecters, going delulu about nothing with crazy stans and talking about our favorite artists with other besties. This forum is very diverse and fun to use.
     
    I got to say I only go online once a day, so it could be different for full-time users. But clicking on a X to keep this amazing forum going really isnt that big of a deal?
     
    I voted yes because the adds really arent that annoying. So far I've only gotten them when I open my first thread or when I'm going through a lot of pages.
    So in conclusion, Elle you're doing great sweetie and you dont deserve to put your own money into this site

    and your point is what, exactly?
     
    the site has never gone down due to no funding and she’s never asked for donations or anything. 
     
    she wants to earn money to run the site instead of using her own. Having to click on an x of an ad truly isn’t that big a deal as you’re making it seem

    I just want to add a note about the not secure thing - we have a fully functioning Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) script installed, but because some of our site tools and images are coded in with HTTP instead of HTTPS, the page is marked as "partially insecure" but please rest assured that all sensitive information is securely encrypted. I know some users have been concerned about that, but please know that everything is secure, it's just the way some of our tools and such are coded in that mark the page as not fully secure. To give some users a piece of mind, I tried to go through the code and change the HTTP elements to HTTPS, but this ended up resulting in the issue where users kept getting logged out and then couldn't log back in. So, I need to tackle that issue in a while when I have some more time to figure everything out properly.
    Also I just want to reiterate that the ads only occur in-between some page loads and will not randomly pop-up while reading or creating posts. Also, they will be the same sort of ads as you would see on banners, so no MILF ads here! All ads are provided to be through Google Adsense rather than from dodgy ad issuers. 
    Just wanted to clear up some things that could be misconceptions there, although I still completely understand if the vignette ads are not your cup of tea x

    The only problem I have is I think there are some particular cookie issues with those ads that cause the site to have problems on Safari. I've fixed it before so I know how to fix it again, but the issue I've had before where the site will log me out between pages, then I log in and it gives me a cookie error and kicks me out. I wouldn't mind donating though.
     
    I will admit, I tried playing with adblock just to see if it fixes it and it does fix that issue, I'm able to keep logged in on Safari through adblock and it doesn't give me any problems. I'm staying logged in with no problems across all of my devices I use Safari on. Of course I try not to use Adblock on here as much as possible because I know it helps support the site when adblock is off but just something I've tried to narrow it down.

    I'm thinking donating $2 a month would be able to level the field in exchange for no ads. & it wouldn't have to be a small payment that recurs each month if it's more convent to pay all at once, so for example you could pay $24 upfront to be free of ads for a whole year.
     
    I've also been meaning to revamp the whole Supporters 2.0 system, hopefully by the end of April since work for my actual job will slow down a bit after next week. For those who will be a part of our Supporters 2.0 program (which will also be a monthly-based program for new Supporters in exchange for special site incentives such as exclusive themes, lavender name tags, a VIP forum section, expanded PFP image uploads, etc. Those who have donated in the past and were promised Lifer status will not need to pay to keep their Supporters status, unless desired) there will be the option to add Ad-Free for just a dollar more to the Supporters 2.0 cost. (I'm thinking the cost for supporters will be $4 or $5 monthly, but I still need to figure out the math and everything)

    I’ve been getting them way more than “occasionally” so I can’t lie they’ve def been a ***little** deterrence, but very very little. I wouldn’t mind paying to remove them, especially to support the site. Not a fan of monthly subscriptions but if there was an option to pay for a whole year or some months at once I would rather do that!

    I haven't seen them yet so I'm not sure. I would be willing to donate to avoid ads since I hate them so much, but it would depend. How much would we have to donate to get rid of ads permanently or for some period of time?

    Hi all,
     
    I wanted to fill you in on what's been going on with some advertisements lately and gather some opinions.
    About a week ago or so, Google Adsense implemented an automatic experiment with vignette ads (full-screen ads) that occur in-between page loads.
    It only affects 50% of our users for now, but it has shown that my Adsense revenue has already greatly increased. Some days, I'm making up to 5x more than I usually do.
    The end of this experiment is approaching, and it will give me the opportunity to permanently implement this ad placement, or remove it.
    I wanted to gather your opinions on possibly permanently implementing this full-screen ads before I make a decision.
     
    To give you a bit more information on these ads:
    These ads will only occur in-between page loads. The ads will not randomly "pop up" as you are reading threads and such, and they will only occasionally occur when you click to browse another page of the site, and by simply pressing the "X" button on the ad, the ad will close and the next page will continue to load as normal. These ads will be the same forms of content as any other ads you would normally see on the site. So don't worry, you won't be seeing any sketchy ads for MILFS and such, but rather the same content you would see in the banner ads but in vignette form as well. They are the same Google Ads.  
    Things to keep in mind:
    While the site is free for you all to use, it is not free to host and manage. Each month, I pay several recurring fees to keep the site up and running for you all. I rely solely on Adsense at the moment to pay for these fees. As these vignette ads have greatly increased my ad revenue, this would help ease some of the stress of guaranteeing I generate enough revenue each month to fully cover the costs Any extra roll-over revenue these ads may produce will be greatly helpful to help finally pay off the loan I borrowed 4+ years ago to purchase LanaBoards in the first place, and can also help pay off the tab I have running from months that Adsense didn't fully cover the fees and I had to pay out of pocket. If I ever find I am generating more revenue than the site needs, I can absolutely remove these ads. (However, I still have lots to pay off for the site alongside monthly recurring fees, so this could be awhile.) I plan to implement an Ad-Free "subscription" package for LanaBoards that would be a monthly $2 cost for anyone who would like to be free from ads on all devices. Users can also choose to donate with a lump sum upfront rather that split into monthly payments  
     
    So, given all this, I want your thoughts. Above anything, your enjoyment of the site is always my top priority. While this extra revenue would be very helpful for the site, I wouldn't implement these ads permanently if this is going to greatly detract from your enjoyment of your site.
    If you find yourself wanting to access the site less or are tempted to use an ad-blocker program, please let me know.
    I want to make sure no one feels greatly deterred from using the site with these vignette page-load ads, and using ad-blockers would defeat the purpose of me implementing these ads to help generate more revenue for funding the site, and could instead result in the site generating less revenue than normal.
     
    Please be honest with me here, I really need your opinions.
     
    I've put up a poll for this thread where you all can let me know if you're willing to tolerate these ads, or if they are unbearable and would greatly damper your enjoyment of the site.
    Also please feel free to leave any further thoughts to explain your opinions below.
     
    Thank you for your consideration guys, and I'm sending all my love to you as always xx

    does anyone have some sort of masterpost for all Poppy unreleased songs in HQ? she seems to have alot from the Bubblebath era because it seems like it was originally supposed to be a full album but was cut down to an ep for some reason. But I can only find stuff on YT in subpar quality.

    Your Result: Dark But Just A Game
    You’re likely a contemplative person who isn’t afraid to shy away from confrontation or controversy. You learn from the mistakes others have made (often one’s family) and have a keen sense of both the harshness of reality and your own standards for living life. You’ve never chosen the path of least resistance and are likely outspoken on social/political issues. Song Recommendation: Sober II (Melodrama) by Lorde   this was so much fun
