Sadly my generation of players can't. Most are < 15.

The time-tested way - by small donations from a member base that care about the servers. We're on our 5th year, and we've never run a single ad on our site or our servers.

    Then how do you pay for your servers?


    If there is a better way I would love it.

    The motd was never suppose to be for ads. It's a screen to show
    your players your site, rules news etc. not a giant ad video.
    Your losing out with the ad in the end.

    +1, aggreed if a community become successful enough to make a
    profit, all too them.

    However exploitation by using a system that draws players into a
    fly trap just for an impression is purely wrong and I think that
    this should be brought up to the ad company to remove there ad
    account.

    If communities want to make or can make money off of donations
    and ads I have no problem with it. They're providing game play
    servers for us to play on and if they profit, they profit. It
    also takes considerable time to manage that many servers.

    The problem are these owners who throw their servers up,
    constantly redisplay advertisements and use fake clients.

    But once again, for the fourth time, this isn't about
    advertisements, can we please stop making it about
    advertisements? *Please*?

    This is about addressing the ease with which abusive
    communities can get around server delistings if they're well
    established.
