That is good. It is one of the things we can do with out the backing of $$. If we go the extra step to make sure we have sufficient Info and links with our YouTube Videos it will make a good difference toward making the spring community more findable.JAZCASH wrote:Youtube vids and Magazine write in's are the way to go, or maybe we could make a Spring membership that if you pay for you get the privileges of losing all your money. Then use that money for billboards and bus advertisements.
That would be nice if we had a source of funds to make use of it. As spring is free, it is not a no brainier tho. Many and likely most/all of us are initially here because it is Free. If we were to get a "trust" created for a spring advertising effort it would take care of our unorganized, and impossible economic stability. The main problem would be getting a base sum for it to sit on. That requires commitment :/ . I think what spring does is Great, and for that I would want to add to an advertising fund. I would worry tho, as BA players, who make up a huge amount of our playing community, do not generally seem to e warm and fuzzy people who would have any appreciation of value, in commitment, or helping a good cause. Not to mention a certain closed behavior. [minded and all other variations of closed (BA DSD for life!)]Hoi wrote:what about google adwords and adsense?

it works pretty good
If you did not understand; the "base" would generate the money to pay for the advertising, and would hopefully, increase it self as the value of $ changes.
It is nice that you guys are contributing to moving forward and not bickering and creating commentary that does not really help. That being said I must now post my response to our arguments about what we should be doing[yeah I contradicted my self and am doing both "productive" and "unproductive commentary"]. =)
