    The "kids" on newschoolers are middle aged now.

    The problem is monetization. Car forums still exist because of the vendors. Something Awful (amazingly) still exists by paid subscription. TRG is just us shooting the shit.

    But they’ll put us in jail if we kill all the telemarkers

    I appreciate all y’all’s hope that the newschoolers crowd is in their late 30s/40s. Go over there and start reading some threads and get back to me. I’m 40 and I can’t understand half of what’s being discussed over there.

    I’m an admin/mod of killingtonzone.com. We could replicate the TGR forum/subforum structure over there as a last resort.

    Regarding costs, we’ve found that inline google ads pretty much covers our hosting costs. The money problem comes in when a forum is run as a business as you don’t make enough to cover any labor costs.
    Because rich has nothing to do with money.

    Wikipedia asks for money each year from its reader base and that bit of crowdfunding seems to be helpful.

    Building a new forum is one thing, porting over the TGR database to another system is a different challenge. But it’s doable.

    As cliche as it sounds, a gofundme to cover the cost of a server migration + fees for a year or two would be the best option. It would show if there is actually the crowd (and cash) to support such a move.

    ski.com.au as an interesting way of raisin’ revenue. It’s free for your first 1000 posts. For anybody to post after 1000 posts there is a modest subscription fee. Seems to work well enough for them to continue to fund their shenanigans..

    we don’t need to take over newschools… just start a picture thread and post all the pictures that you wanna post here there. Then link here using the. [img][img] dealio. No text. It’ll just be a bunch of random fucking pictures to them.

    Happy to buy in to the co-op that buys the thing. Social media: user-owned or GTFO.

    That’s the crazy thing

    This malignant tumor has been festering on the arse of the film biz. And over many decades multiple well intentioned people have tried to monetize the traffic to no avail.

    And in all that time. Not once has there been a pledge drive for a new box fan. Or a subscription base that allowed access to the burros farts and bacon forum. Or the ride with Todd or Kai. Like the ski with Pepi or the meet at Casper with Djongo unchained. Something. Anything to get the server working right.
