Run A Ns-fansite ?

Sirus · June 2003

If you have an NS Fansite, how 'bout giving back to the developers that helped created such great content.

I'm currently searching for businesses that are looking to buy online webspace, Ie. Banner space.
Now, if you run a fansite, how bout putting up 1 or 2 banners, and contributing revenue to the Constellation program on a regular basis. This helps support the community further by helping NS grow.

say again What was your point??

"I'm currently searching for businesses that are looking to buy online webspace, Ie. Banner space."

Why are looking for that?

"Now, if you run a fansite, how bout putting up 1 or 2 banners, and contributing revenue to the Constellation program on a regular basis"

What about? we already have banners

"how 'bout giving back to the developers that helped created such great content"

Good idea but how?!

There isn't many players left in v1.04 to create a community <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'>

Ill throw up a banner for you, if you like.

Banners for whom?

Sirus · June 2003

I'm afraid the point wasn't up for debate.

Unlike coding a game, devs can't code money. Certain businesses offer money if you allow them to use part of your webspace. Whether per hit or otherwise.

Do you earn money for advertising other businesses, and if so, where does that money go ? Well, If your running a fansite wouldn't it make sense for you to divert income produced by banners to the Constellation system ?

That isn't the point, it allows for developers to have more time, therefore, reducing the amount of time that NS isn't getting worked on.

No need to be bitter. Though I do know the feeling you have. As a standard not PT non Veteran, I feel a bit out of the loop. This is not the topic for that though.

Again, to whom will these banners point to? Thats what is impotant to me.

Sirus · June 2003

Check the Constellation system on natural-selection.org

The idea is that if you run a Fan-site for NS you can further help contribute by using paid banners that would help produce revenue for yourself, which you in turn can contribute to the Constellation system. And hopefully, are able to do so on a regular basis.

As to where to find the banners, I'm still looking for website that will pay you to advertise their product, I'm sure you've seen them before, and I'm sure you can find them yourself.

Something like <a href='http://www.aaddzz.com/pages/selling' target='_blank'>this</a> .

I'm confused. I have already sent my $20 to the Constellation. If you want a banner or two that pays for click throughs on our site, thats fine with us as long as they don't point to Adult Content or rip offs. The NS Team may have all the funds generated by these banners. But Im not sure if this is what your asking of us, like I said I'm confused.

Sirus · June 2003

That's exactly what I'm talking about (:

Use your discretion in choosing the content.

But if you would factor in about half of any website related to NS doing this you could definetly have a nice steady contribution on a regular basis.

im still terribly confused full stop <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Ok, lets give an example to clear things up.. here is my site (although not a fansite) <a href='http://www.uknsleague.com' target='_blank'>http://www.uknsleague.com</a>
Give us your 2 cents of what you would like us to do..

Find a website that will pay you per month for allowing them to put banners on your website. Take the money that you earn through this process, donate it to the NS Team.

I'm thinking about making an NS fansite myself over summer..

However, bandwidth is so expensive nowadays that banners will mostly be used to pay the fees.

(Correct me if I didn't get your meaning right, your phrasing is a bit awkward Sirus)

Run A Ns-fansite ?
