... Talked About, pondered on and such and such, But Does Anybody Active on KMC / KMC Forums actually get paid? Administrator(s) Global mods?

Or are all thoes ads simply to pay for the chunk of space that KMC uses up on heck knows which server (Which Server?)

Because with Well over 10,000 (Idn't bother to check) members, PLUS a lot more guests daily, AND all the people who mainly check out the movie section on the KMC main page, Thats a lot of ads, thats also a lot of clicking.

Most sponsors pay X amount of ¢ per click, on bigger sites, they pay more, anywhere from 5¢ to several Dollars, Even hundreds if you want your thing up on google (But thats not per click)

So this could be a very hefty sum monthly, but does the server costs drain ALL of that money?

I'm sure it doesn't use up all of the money from the ads. Raz probably does get a bit of a kick back from them. But considering how large KMC is, all of the attatched images which are stored on the server, the members, the guests, etc. etc. etc. I'm sure the monthly bandwidth is up really high, seeing as how I've only seen KMC's servers go down a couple of times when it was still small.

Large server = A shit load of money.

that'd be a cool job!

So Razzle is loaded? Reaping the benefits from those members who get excited every time an ad flashes in their face and can't stop themselves clicking?

you get paid €0.50 per post, after having over 50.000 😄

What do you mean... you actually get money when you've posted over 50,000 times? Don't spread that around, talk about an incentive for spamming 😂

Keep in mind that KMC is friggin' huge. A server costs a LOT of money. And it takes a lot of ad clicks to make any money off them.

You started it. 😐

The ads pay for the server, which I can assure you is not cheap!

How is this an off topic thread? Sure, the conversation may slip one way or the other between friends, but it will go full circle.

I know. My forum is only 100+ a few members and we don't get much traffic, even then I am going to have to upgrade to a server with more bandwidth soon. I pay $50 a year for the smallest server.

Mine's a freebie 😄 Cheap, but never tacky.
