What's with the huge ads? I know they need the money, but

When enough people used Tnet without making a contribution..


Oct 24, 2015, 2:10 AM

the owners had to sell advertising space to pay overhead. They worked a full time job and ran Tnet on the side. They took time from their families to chase a dream, a dream where they actually made their living providing other Clemson Grads and fans with the latest and most accurate information about their and our Alma mater.

OK, maybe the ratio of leeches to donors wasn't the only or primary reason they sell advertising but for a small monthly donation you can rid yourself of these pesky adds. Perhaps you think they need to stop selling adds, fire the staff and go back to working full time so you can find another place where you can to get your Clemson news?

Disclaimer:

This post is not approved nor was it reviewed by Tnet owners or staff but it is the sincere desire of this poster that Tnet would release him of the website restrictions on calling whineazz, cheapskates a whineazz, cheapskate for looking a gift horse in the mouth.*

Personal Note.

For the short toothed, ungrateful or those who know nothing about horses:

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth definition. Don't question the value of a gift. The proverb refers to the practice of evaluating the age of a horse by looking at its teeth. This practice is also the source of the expression “long in the tooth,” meaning old.

You could TD me if you were a donor. It's a shame you have to scroll, scrolling is such a issue these days with carpal tunnel so deadly and spreading like the plague.

people with multiple handles that are only here to jerk each other off...that was about 10 years ago and has only gotten worse each year. I still come here for the articles and to scroll through the forum, though I rarely post since most of the threads are of no interest to me.

If the mods would clean this place up I might donate again. I'll just use the mobile version of the site...no bothersome ads.

Peace.

In all fairness, you did ask the question...

if you didn't want to hear the answer, you shouldn't have asked the question.

requirement for them to do something that they need money to do? If they had a full time mod staff half this chit wouldn't go on.

POI: "Long in the tooth" refers to the general physical presentation in advanced age brought on by the effects of periodontal bone loss on dental esthetics. This is often accelerated by chronic periodontal disease and concomitant medical conditions such as diabetes.

Conclusions: brush twice daily for 2 minutes, floss every night, get your blood glucose under control, don't eat junk all the time, and never trust a fan of a university whose mascot name doubles as a description for a phallus.
