    Thumbs up Finally - I set up a separate Board Style with no ads.


    I have been listening. Some of you do not like all the google ads on the boards. It slows you down, and just interferes with all the fun. But to me, it's a necessary evil. Those goofy google ads are a big source of income. The sponsors at the top of the page provide prizes that I give away on the site, but google ads make me some money to help pay for the hosting costs.

    Anyway, NOW you will be able to sign up and not get view any of those google ads. You will have to sign up in the Crappie.com Business Directory, and I will add you to the new Style. Sorry, but it will cost the basic listing rate of $9.95, I don't think that too much, otherwise you can simply view the ads.

    To sign up it's a two step process. You have to create a member login, yes another one (but use the same name as on the board please), and then you can add a listing.

    If you sign up for the Basic $9.95 listing, you'll not see the google ads, if you sign up for the $49.95 listing I'll add sponsor to your Title on the board.

    I really only created this to improve the site guys. You all are great, and if you don't want to see the google ads, and if you want to support the site, please sign up.

    Hope this helps, and thanks as always for your participation on this great site.

    Oh, all moderators will automatically get the ad free view.

    Yeah, does not seem to be working correctly yet.

    I'm still working on it.

    Let me know if you think this is a good idea?

    I really like the idea but would hate to pay for "ad free" to have a self promoter post up pics with a business card inserted in the pic.

    Ed, I just signed up and paid through PayPal. Used the same "SkeeterJeff" to register. Ads are still here, but I don't see myself listed in the Directory under Sponsor Members. I assume that is something you have to do manually?

    Thank you for providing a great forum for crappie fishermen across the country. $9.95 well spent.

    Thanks Skeeter. You're all set now. You had to wait till I approved the listing and such, but you're all set now. PM me and let me know if the ads are gone for you, they should be.
