Advertiser to sell on TBN?

[foggy1111]

To distill down to it's basic premise, what this forum is, is a place for posters to interact and share their views and questions concerning each and every sub forum contained in the website, so long as they abide by the Users Agreement set fort by the forum owner, in this case Muhammad Christi.

I surmise that probably 99% of members logging on, never read that agreement, the log on (first time) and check 'I agree' and continue without ever taking the time to explore the forum rules set down by Mr. Christi that govern the way this forum operates.

Having said that, make no mistake, this forum is a for profit venture as evidenced by the pop up ads, click through ads and 'paid advertisers'.

Mr. Christi receives monetary gain from this forum. He wouldn't be hosting this forum, leasing a .com site or perpetuating the existence of this forum if he wasn't profiting monetarily from it.

Consequently, he can act in a arbitrary and capricious manner concerning any and all aspects of this forum because he owns it, much like you own your house or car. To him, it's nothing more than an object to make a profit with.

He can, at his sole discretion, manipulate any and all aspects contained herein without any input from the community, and he does and that is something that everyone needs to keep in mind....

Bottom line is you are a guest. However, with no guests, this forum ceases to exist as a profitable (for him) entity because the very profitability of this forum is based entirely on the number of members that post and click on advertisers ads and look at the click through pop up's. That's all gaged on search engine results and I'm sure Mr. Christy gets regular updates tracking those click thorough. I know I do concerning my own site.

Thats how it works folks.

It's all about making money, nothing more.

AaaaHaaa! So.....it's a profit scheme eh? :laughing:

Absolutely.... Just look around the thread post pox and what do you see?

The same thing you see on any forum that derives it's income and operating expenses from advertising.....advertising.

......and you have the "Paid Advertisers". Paid as in paying a fee for the right to sell their wares to.....you. Paid to whom? The forum owner of course.

Know what, I know what it costs to operate a venue like this and it reality it's not much. Consequently it's profit orientated.

That brings us right around to the users agreement that you should read but probably never did, that limits your rights when you log on, to the rules set forth by the forum owner.

To me, this forum ( with the exception of 4 or 5 posters) is basically 99% hot wind....

I prefer to hunt spandex clad dancers at Shotgun Willie's.

Somehow I have you pictured as trolling for BVD's.

Tell you what Low Bucket; since this is obviously an issue of national importance to you; how about you starting your own tractor forum and you can set forth whatever rules and regulations you see fit as you would be the owner.

OTHERWISE GET A LIFE AND GET OVER IT!

That is calling the kettle black.......

Find a new set of BVD's lately?:laughing:

Gee, I thought I said that in post #34. Just sayin! I've got to learn to write better.

Be nice to him Gizmo as it takes a while for him to catch up.

It's nice to know you're not part of the 1%.

So if this forum is nothing but hot air; why don't you and Low Bucket start you're own tractor forum.

Please tell me you didn't just write that!
Take away the members.....What's left?
The owner has to decide what makes him or her the most profit, period.
It's a tough road for the owner as he would probably be wrong depending on what side of the fence he is on. Now, we have this thread going on and on to make his or her job even harder. I read once "never kick a sleeping dog". I propose, we children go to bed and forget this thread is here. As the owner cannot win, either way, it would be smart to close this thread. Yesterday!

Well I'll take your 4600 posts and say that about 4554 of those are "hot wind"

Thus 4554 (99%) of what you have posted is simple BS ...
