Hey "ya'll" ... please don't forget to click some of those ads once in a while, it REALLY helps the site a TON. With ad rates falling and subscriptions pretty much going away, every click helps keep the site going. Thanks in advance for supporting DRN!

I can't post this in the open as it's against the TOS (terms of service) of one of the major advertisors.

Would it be okay for me to post it in the General forum?

Thanks Vic, but no, probably not a good idea. I put in here to just remind the folks that obviously care about the site.


Thanks tho!

There's a great piece of wisdom, thanks Bruce. I'll make sure to say whatever makes people happy, then you can bag on me for sucking up, lol.

And btw, there's alot more "major competition" than just thumpertalk. But as long as I can keep it going, run it like we do, keep the signal to noise ratio down, it's all good.

I know this is a touchy subject with many but there has to be a way we can convince more people to pony up for the help and enjoyment they get on this board. Some of the other sites I frequent ie. Mototalk are pay to post, not sure that would work here as we have more tech stuff than bench racing it seems. How about limiting non supporters number of posts per 24 hours?

Just thinking out loud here, anyone else have any thoughts?

I followed one of the links this morning and found a smokin' good deal on graphics. I ordered two sets. The guy called me after I sent him an email and he used to work for One Industries and N-Style. He is now designing and producing graphics with the same materials and processes. I should have them by the end of next week and then I will put them on the 05 250 and the 03 450 and takes some pics.

I let the guy, Jeff, know that I found it thru Google from DRN. He said he would try to visit DRN soon and likely will contact Okie about some ads.
PS, Okie, I will be sending you some info via PM.

Here's an easy way to help:

From the main forum list, right click on the forum you want to open and open in a new window/tab. When you are done in that forum, instead of closing it, click on an ad, then close the ad. You could take it one step further and chase threads that way too.

Okie, does right clicking on an ad register it for you? I don't think it does, but I could be wrong.
