Start talking about Motown girl groups though, and you'd probably get called a Supremacist.

if you want to know the sort of answer from a dumb dude that wasnt directly involved, google adwords which pays a chunk of fees for the board yanked our account for obscene material or some such shit, referenced that thread, tried to appeal and the only way they would go for it is if the thread vanished.

iirc the only problem with ILX doing periodic fundraisers for the hosting was meeting our goals so fast that US folks couldn't pitch in

probably the best way to get Google off the site and get the fundraisers popping again is to alert google to all the offensive threads

Don't worry, I'll bring it back once this thing with Google's done. It's a massive pain in the ass, but is mostly just down to a bug in their "policy violation appeal" form.
We need to talk about the funding situ again at some point soon though, because it's hard to know what to do. The old yearly fund drives were OK (although a pain to administer), but when we moved to Amazon for hosting it meant there's both a yearly cost *and* a hard-to-predict monthly cost. I didn't like having cash just sitting burning a hole in an account, and I also didn't like not knowing how much any potential shortfall could be.
Google was a great fix for that side of it, but the more you make from them the more they investigate you, and we've got an archive-load of stuff they Don't Like.
I guess there are a few options here - subscriptions, someone else handling funds, moving out of Amazon, something else. I'll have a look around and consider tech options first. Amazon is great, but it's also not cheap.
xp yeah, it'd be great if you could make my life as hard as possible, Whiney.
