People forget that admins are admins because they're there to make money. Jesus.

I knew it Spike :(]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=438176 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:26:36 +0100 Reply by Russian Guyovich https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=438172 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=438172 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:06:02 +0100 Reply by weaselo https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=438169 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=438169 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:46:52 +0100 Reply by Netsky https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=438165 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=438165 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:03:52 +0100 Reply by CursedGhost https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=438113 Quoted from emb

[...] I'm curious where this bizarre entitlement stems from. Are you seriously comparing not blocking a small ad while viewing the site, to directly donating money?

Entitlement to what? Knowing where money flows to in a 'community driven league'? As Spike pointed out, we have the impression that admins are managing etf2l in their free time (and not get paid for it), yes it would be bad if that was just a front to placate us. I'm not against making money, just that you're honest about it.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=438113 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:02:14 +0100 Reply by emb https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=438086 Quoted from Casual

[...] Yes that would be very very bad. This is the part where you'd announce how much exactly you pay out the admins (maybe not to individuals, rather the total sum of money that isn't going directly towards supporting etf2l itself).

It's against adsense Terms of service (and most advertising companies for that matter) to disclose any values to the public. This is not a reasonable request I don't need to know how much you make from ads, as long as you're putting it towards repaying server costs / prize pools.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=437702 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 17:23:33 +0100 Reply by CursedGhost https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=437699 Quoted from Trath

[...] The (little) money made from the current ads goes only into ETF2L related activities, mainly into prize pools. I am not going to make a public list what has been paid out and when (no league or site does that), you have to trust me on that or ask the players who won any prizes in the past. If you do not trust me, keep your adblock on. edited for clarification

I DONT BELIEVE YOU I KNOW U TAKE THE MONEY ALL FOR YOURSELF!!@! Seriously guys you don't have to know what goes on behind the scenes, if you really think they taking money to their pocket when they say they don't, you have trust issues. Also if they did take some money to their pocket, would that be a bad thing?]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=437693 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 16:38:17 +0100 Reply by CannonFodd3r https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=437692 Quoted from Casual

Not all. E.g. for Season 14, ~€500 is sponsored and the rest comes out of ETF2L funds.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=24656&post=437692 Sun, 10 Mar 2013 16:21:44 +0100 Reply by CursedGhost https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-24656/page-2/?recent=438184#post=437690 Quoted from CanFo

I demand more transparency about the money flow or adblock will stay on.
