Mate my heads baffled. Everyone’s fuming. Sure this is the end of Everton now.

Hopefully @GrandOldTeam doesnt close the forum like he said he would when we get relegated

On Wednesday, our server costs just went up another 3%;



On top of 5% in March;






2022 was a bad, bad year for us. December massively carries us (see graph here form years ago). It carries us because ad companies pay a premium then and there's loads of Everton. No Everton at that time killed us. As did Royal Mail strike.

Relegation is an unknown really but I think it could be a nail in our coffin. I've started speaking to new ad agencies to see if there's any extra rev opportunities but I doubt it tbh - every month that goes by, we lose the adblock battle.

Mentioned this before but think it's perfectly acceptable to flip that on us.

"Due to rising server costs we'll have to up the monthly forum sub price"

Pretty sure all but the absolute lunatics would understand. We all want the forum to survive and those that scoff at an extra quid or two would soon regret it if it shut down. Spend more on a pint than we do here per month.

I’m with @Nymzee here, throw some extra quid per month of the stuff we already pay and I’ll happily pay it as will many others I suspect.

Add extra incentives, and many may even pay me more. Let me me a MOD the Transfer thread, and I’ll throw even more at GOT.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, implement other avenues apart from PayPal to become a supporter, I'd even do a bank transfer.

There's probably thousands of other folk like me who decided to buy stuff whilst drunk on eBay and got perma banned just waiting to put money in.

Thank you - worried I've joined in quite an angsty time though. Hopefully it settles down soon.

Sure it is temporary...it's only been like this for the last (checks watch) 28 years.

I’ll happily pay more each month. Maybe have a forum named after me or something.
