Quinn Posted October 7, 2010 Report Posted October 7, 2010 I would say merge with another site, if we can't keep our own.

fattwam Posted October 8, 2010 Report Posted October 8, 2010 Licensing costs money, aswell as peachy not liking the idea of leeching off people, he would rather pay for what he gets.As well as just an income for him.
iBotPeaches Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Posted October 8, 2010 Usually I kept this data secret, but iBotModz has made me no profit. The money I've earned from donations and ads go right back into the web for renewals or server charges. Here is a chart from December 2009 to NOW. I've only made 81 bucks in almost a full year. http://i53.tinypic.com/rjodj7.png
fattwam Posted October 8, 2010 Report Posted October 8, 2010 Jesus, we only got 300k page view the whole year ? is that unique or just page views ? I get that amount of page views in a day with all my sites.
iBotPeaches Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Posted October 8, 2010 A view is defined as a session where a user has visited 4 or more pages. So the one hit google bots, or one hit users to get something and leave, didn't count.

jmdalmighty Posted October 8, 2010 Report Posted October 8, 2010 So peaches have u decided yet what you will do
iBotPeaches Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Posted October 8, 2010 I'm deciding when Halo Reach TU one is released. That could be in a few weeks or tomorrow.

iBotPeaches Posted October 9, 2010 Author Report Posted October 9, 2010 Not really, just lots of talk about it on the bnet forums about random fixes and things that are coming in a Title Update. So I have no clue of what it will bring.

Finch Posted October 10, 2010 Report Posted October 10, 2010 In my opinion this site could do with a reset.
Azraelrs Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Just a suggestion (as if I know anything about running a website), if you decide to merge do it with a more generalized site. Something that covers a lot more on gaming and modding as a whole and is not so centralized around one particular game. As I tried to say many moons ago Halo just isn't it anymore. People are all over the place. But don't just merge into any site. Take time and find one that is mutually beneficial to the members there, and to all of your loyal members here. Don't settle for anything being taken away, make sure any decision is for the good and for the growth.
