"Premium Forum Membership"?

Just curious if it's ever been discussed to have a premium membership option to remove the ads? I'd happily pay for the amazing service this forum provides me with.

If you're using Firefox, install the uBlockOrigin add-on. Works great!

Thanks for the advice, i do know there are quite a few blockers out there I just want to make sure I support the site. If letting the ads play is the only way of doing so, I will continue to do so.

I'd chip in just to chip in, ads or not.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind donating a few bucks to help pay for this site, especially given everything I've gained by being a member. Honestly, my career is a lot further along because of the advice others have shared here.

Heck, I would simply be happy with new ads. I'm getting tired of clicking "no thanks" on my phone to the same.stinking.ads.

I'd pay if it went toward making the site https as well...

I could use a refresher of why we havent gone HTTPS. I remember one of the admins tellign me but honestly can't recall what the answer was.

Anytime someone posts about https in reference to this site, it gets deleted.

Honestly I don't really have an issue with the ADs, TE has provided me years of content and access to good professionals, but I would like to say, it would be nice to not see the same full screen ad multiple times during a single site visit, thats going too far.

Have no problem donating at random intervals. This site has been invaluable for my career

Same here. Would become a "VIP" member or whatever. This forum and some of the members are a part of the reason I am where I am today.

UnixGuy

I would donate as well!
