I'm little bit curious about it too since there are many accounts avail the subscription of being a Copper Member (even some of them are already high ranks) and many people donates for the development of the forum.

hmm you know dude, the membership here is open and we're having many benefits of staying in here so I think we shouldn't ask about the details of finances here as long as we're enjoying and experiencing the platform for infos. If there's a chance of releasing the finances and audit, It'll be another issue and most of us will question where does the funds go? Huh

So even we're asking the same question every year, it'll remain the same. The only thing I'm sure is, the forum has a lot of funds. Wink

Hi theymos, every year the same question Grin

.

Can we have an update about the current forum finances?

Thanks.

PS: I don't work for any government, don't worry. I'm just curious.

theymos, receive adequate fund that's why he is not decreasing donation amount or not creating any new donation campaign. I have read somewhere where theymos mentioned that all is going well by selling ad space. In this case, I think we do not need to give headache to theymos. And also now a days there is a good return for copper membership.

BTC or BUST

LOL, 6BTC is not much when compared to the money receiving from the auctions every week for the advertising in the forum.

And even that is barely worth the headache..

I don't care about making money from the forum personally. (I've actually thought about getting rid of the forum ads, since it's often a big headache and the forum has enough reserves for a long time

I don't care about traffic much; I just want there to be a good forum.

True but this is now a part of forum's revenue. A financial manager will always count a signle cent Cheesy

BTW, it is also not a small amount. AFAIK, total amount of copper membership is more than 3k till now. 3000*0.002= 6 BTC, is not a little amount.

OgNasty is currently holding 500BTC ($3.843.000) for the forum in this address.
There is also an auction to advertise in the forum every couple days (~1 week), which earns the forum a few BTC per round. Last round, it was 3BTC (for 1 week of advertising)

They have money.

Not to sounds like a dick but what right do any of us have to ask about the forum finances Huh

Apart from say donators, investors( not sure if there ever were any. Maybe some some of the staff depending on how the forum is structured.

You would probably have a better chance if you were a government agency following proper procedures. Despite theymos's political views on government interference I have the impression he operates well within the legal requirements of the US.

From what I understand the forum has plenty of money BTC and is not motivated by making more money..
The money from copper purchases helps sure, but the amount it insignificant..

The charge for copper is a speedbump for scammers, not a revenue stream scheme.. Same with evil..

the new type of "purchasable rank" aka Copper Membership has been introduced. Wonder if that helps the forum's finances or not.

dogs are cute.

I am damn curious too _{[not really]}, especially after the new type of "purchasable rank" aka Copper Membership has been introduced. Wonder if that helps the forum's finances or not. Also, is Slickage still being paid for the forum that's supposed to be released in, I don't know, 3018^TM?
