No ads for Donators?

There are hardly any ads as it is. If anything, he should place more on the site to increase revenue. Then, this topic could be revisited.

Why? Many sites with a donation feature have ads hidden from donors. Nobody will pay a monthly fee for donating. Just use ad-block plus.

Yep ad-block plus is handy. Good thing I use it before anyone suggested.

Tuneup utilities 2010 suggested it for download.

I used to think exactly the same, until I started hosting my own websites. Sythe isn't made of money, and he's not here to baby you all. He's doing this, regardless of the fact that he 'barely breaks even'. According to him, the site costs 400$ a month, and I'm guessing an extra 10$ a year for the domain. Not to mention dealing with all of the attacks, he does pay out a lot.

Instead of doing donators, I believe it would be wise to do subscriptions. A cheap 5$ a month to remove the ads, and, oh, gain access to a private forum where there are recently discovered bugs, or something that people want.

That way, he brings in an extra 5$ a month per subscription, instead of a life time. (He could also run donations on the side, as well).

And I believe a bit better organization of the ad blocks is necessary, right now, they're very ineffective.
