Sure not me - lol. Facebook I assume depends on all the sites (surely not Beemaster) more like TGIF, SEARS, any big store or service which people "allow" to use their member preferences to post ads on peoples home pages.
Example, I see one member with an attachment that is sponsored by Chili's offering the member to "buy" an appetizer and send it to a Facebook friend.
That is just one of a trillion examples. I'm sure Facebook gets a good chunk of that times the millions of posts a minute sure must add up.
FYI - Here at Beemaster Forums, any funds are through donations by members to help defer costs of hosting services, domain fees, back-up servers, Ventrilo Voice/text Chat and anything else required. No one is paid, our admins and staff are totally volunteer - I cannot imagine the man-hours Robo gives us alone and what a fair man-hour fee would be to keep us up and running. And NO money has ever been taken in exchange for advertising on this site, nor will there ever.
Worse case scenario I would cover all costs out of pocket, but that has not been necessary since the third year of the forum - our members are very kind to help keep us going and I am very grateful to them.
So next time you look around the forum, notice, no Google Ads or any ads of any kind - and then thank those who have so kindly supported us all for so many years. :)
