Steve, this is for you. I'm wondering why tower hosting bumped their prices up to 100 a year for the lowest price? I don't know how recent it is, but i remember it being 65 not too long ago. I was going to buy a year's worth of hosting, but there's no way i can afford 100 bucks for only a year. I guess i just want to know if there was a main reason for this, besides wanting more money?


sorry to sound like too much of a jerk.

Thanks.

Yeah I have another point to make.

Steve the advertisements, there are loads, it's starting to look like a free website.. Anyway of cutting down a few? I know that hosting takes a lot, but you host it on your own (reseller?) host so it's costing you fanny all lol.

Didn't want to sound like a cock, but thats just an issue, the pop ups are kinda gay too..

Why don't you have ads on the main page, and on the rest just have smaller google ads, not huge leaderboard ones..

^ I also agree about the ads. Everytime I come on I have to close all these popups. And they are for Scion and crap...am i really interested in that?

dude, for real he deffinatly said something about this getting 100 gigs of traffic somewhere. even while owning a host, 100 gigs of traffic is still a helluvalot. i'd say deal with the ads, start clicking on some.

Get a popblocker!

*download the google toolbar, their popup blocker is amazing*

No because then if they are blocked Steve and Ramprage as a whole looses money.

Nah, all are google ads, don't make jack shit on impressions, he rely's on clicks.. Plus skateboarding ads give him about $0.03 a click he makes jack shit either way lol.. If he had pay per impression ads he would make a ****ing BOMB! but that's Steve for ya ;)
