I believe you are right that there are expenses in running this forum, but have you thought that there are paid ads currently running too? I think those are enough or even profitable than the expenses this forum needs.
You have no idea of the finances of this forum
shut the fuck up
YOU are the only one who doesnt have idea of the finances of this forum.
The forum has at least 500 BTC being escrowed by OgNasty. Not only that, but theymos gets a pretty good amount of money from ad slots (~0.5 to almost 1 BTC per week). If you think over $1.5 million + ~$2-3k a week is not enough, you are dumb.
