Signed up for Infolinks. Might be a drag for some, but with our copious textwalls it should do pretty good.

Is that the one that makes idiotic hotlinks on words like "game" or "computer" which you then accidentally mouse over all the time if you aren't using adblock?

Infolinks looked down upon us and found us wanting. :(

I blame Tunnel.

Though it probably has more to do with our unique visitor count being pretty dismal.
If you need to get the site cost neutral, just set up a donation link. I for one would rather donate and have an ad-free site, and we can combine it with the general server fund once the MMO is running.

Don't you need a confirmed Paypal to do that?

And speaking of s**t breaking, my laptop's hard drive just broke...again. At least it had the decency this time to wait until the new year, but it was still only like three months since I replaced it.

Naw, my next comp will probably be a Clevo.

Ordered a replacement HDD from Dell support :tongue:

Also, the site appears to be broken in IE9.

Absolutely not.

For now and the forseeable future, Futurecraft still looks like vaporware. The only thing keeping it from turning into a scam is the fact that we've asked for nothing from our audience but their patience.
That's how it has to be for now. We can't afford to generate any ill will or hostility towards the project while we are still unable to back up our claims.

I am very serious about this.

Agreed asking for cash with nothing to show makes you look like a con artist, and while money helps it isn't smart to ask for it when you can't prove a thing.

Right. That's totally his real name, and not just the most common first name in the USA.

He is in Texas I would believe his name is John Doe just based on his location.
