Well i updated my list of videos, i didn't think anyone had them until i went searching this morning LOL. Damn they bring back some good memories.
Recently i've been getting some strange phone calls. Usually if i miss the call i check the number but as they are withholding, then there is no way of checking who it is. Now anyone who withholds their number has a reason, but i got a message from a so called information centre saying that there was a message left for me. Well the number spoken was for a rented number, and doing a search on google revealed that the company renting the number can earn up to 4p a min. Now multiply that many times and you can see that if enough people phone to see what the message says, they will make a tidy profit.
ok i remember what i was going to say the other day, it was about making bulletins sticky. I wanted to see what happens when you try to make one sticky and found out, it costs you $5 for 24 hours. At the time that seemed excessive but then it hit me that the site doesn't advertise as much as it could or at all. So it made sense that trying to keep the site going they charge for certain options. At least you have the choice of paying it or not, not forced like some sites to subscribe to a premier account and get benefits.
The site has the choice to either charge for certain options and charge or go the subscription route. Which one is more financially better is open to question because they both have their downsides, and its the site owners choice as to what they feel works. I like the way CT charges for certain things as they do have to pay for the servers and the bandwith they use, and keeping as much free as possible.
