ben_hutcherson Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 In this thread OK P/N, you won this round. Glenn says that's the end goal for this site. If implemented, I personally believe that it would be absolutely the stupidest decision the administration has made in the past several years that the site has been declining, and I know that I would NOT pay. It's been a good 13 year run for me, but I suspect that I'd not be the only one who would refuse and it seems a final nail in the coffin for me. I hope that the current owners have enjoyed ruining what was once a thriving site...whatever happens I'm sure they will CONTINUE to remain oblivious to the fact that those of us who contribute ARE the ones who drive traffic here...

G-P Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Ben it just means less focus on ad focused model and by way of doing that building features users value and would be willing to pay for. If 50% of our users are blocking ads and that trend is increasing, what is the point of focusing there? Those that use the gallery side of the site, generally speaking I don't think they like seeing ads next to their photography....not to mention many many headwinds in online advertising space resulting in overall decline of CPM (cost per thousand ads served and viewed). Additional explanation here: OK P/N, you won this round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
