Default Why is there a link to ebay up top every page?

I got booted from ebay because they linked my account & now I'm here as a noob. I see I am not alone in my ebay troubles. I learned lots reading the forums so far & am grateful.

I was just wondering why the "Check My Listings At Ebay" banner is on every page of these forums? It may sound dumb, but couldn't ebay theoretically track IP's of the banner impressions served to visitors of these forums & scrutinize accounts accessed by those IP's later on? Should I be changing my IP before accessing ebay after I visit these forums? Just a thought...

No eBay can not read IP address of banner impressions on this site... come on guys. The only way eBay will get your IP is when you actually click on the Banner and GO to EBAY.

Don't worry though; I plan on removing the ad soon.

can't knock you for having an ad on this site Aspkin. how much monthly profit could something like that bring in?

most people charge for the info you have here.

This forum isn't making any money. I'm new to forums, and I've noticed they're very hard to monetize. I have a couple things planned though, so maybe it'll work out better for me in a month or two.

i think a 'donation method' would be a worthy addition to this site

I for one would be only to pleased to dontate as i have learned SO much on here and made contact with new people who can help me

I guess using PayPal to accept these payments would not be an option though

Lol...

Thanks guys. I'm glad this site is doing some good and helping people. I'm working on a couple things that should give value to the people donating and help pay for the server at the same time (sponsored membership); if only I didn't have 70+ other sites to deal with first.

Off topic: I just finished working on a new sales page today. If you guys are looking for a better way to advertise on your own websites, this peel banner works great! I just installed it on several sites and already noticed a better click through rate.

You can see it here: Harris Fellman and Richard Osterude's Peel Away Ads!

Products like this help pay for this site.

By the way… what kind of features would you guys like as a sponsored member? I plan on having a private forum, bigger mailbox, and other features. What would you like to see?
