Ad links
 

I have gotten rid of those annoying ads that were being displayed. We were not making enough money to cover expenses with them anyways. In their place are less intrusive amazon ads that should be a little easier to deal with. If you purchase anything through amazon.com, please go through our link, it doesnt cost you any more, but the project receives 10% of the purchase as a referral. Your support will help out the project a lot. Although the support of the community has enabled us to have our main dedicated server paid for a while, any continued support will be greatly appreciated :)

Sweet i buy tons of stuff off line on amazon il bookmark that link. Just last week spent 2300$ on clothes and stuff.

dang, you must like to shop there :)

Cool, its too bad I already did my big purchases there this month though.

Thanks for the change, it was bringing undue attention to my at work surfing :) and I am more likely to be able to give back to the comunity now.

well i bought vs.net 2003 hefty 1500$ there so i could run my server and school and stuff

I use Amazon alot, so does everyone in my house. Will make sure they go through EMU!

and I got it free through the MSDN Academic alliance...neener neener neener! :lol:

Yeah, but he owns it and you're borrowing it.

actually no, I got it free and was able to install it on my home computer FOR FREE FOREVER..and even when I graduate I am under the alumni program where I can get it for 15$...sure beats the 1500$ :D I love being a programming major

Amazon.com Associates only get 5% up to a maximum of $10 per item.
But either way, goodluck! It never hurts to earn money through them.

did the policy change ? i hope so not, but the ads are back since Feb 26 !!! :cry:

The ads are Amazon ads which LE said he was putting on... :)

i am seeing ad's on the right side of the forum list and at the bottom

yeah, the same. The amazon didn't bother.
The new ads are VERY intrusive (flashy, big and all).
i hope eqemu gets A LOT of money for them :lol:

Yah I know they are little annoying, but at least they arent popups/unders. To set the record straight noone used the amazon link, we made less than $20 in two months of using it (compared to the server costs of $120 for the same time frame). We got a GOOD deal with these ads; they are impression ads which means noone has to click them and the money we make in just 1 month for these ads will pay for the server for over six months. (Yes that is how good of a deal) :P

So in short, it might be annoying, but we have to make enough money to cover server costs.
