It's a crappy system to have to "force" people to post stuff. You get more useless stuff that clutters the forums-- like my post right now :p

A site will receive plenty of ad revenue from lurkers so why force them to post is beyond me. Let us lurkers read and vote ...

What fucking Ad revenue?  We've made $73 dollars from ads in the several years we've been online.  Considering we're at about $170/mo to run the site, fuck you. :D

That's over a 2 year period bro.

This is a hacking site.  The majority of users run adblockers or are premium so they don't see the ads.

that 73 dollars was from the two or three years this site had been online BEFORE the point system and 5 post requirement were even an idea. meaning there was plenty of lurkers that did nothing, just like you want to be. as you can see, that didnt help at all. the ad revenue is non existent. unless you want this place to have ads on both sides, the top, and a popup everytime you click, theres no way in hell we'd generate even a quarter of the cost to keep the site running. assuming things makes an ass out of you and me, except in this case its mostly you.

tldr; ads are total dildos. if you want to lurk, go ahead. you know the rules though, so dont complain when your account gets dropped like a sack of potatoes for not doing anything productive.

Just to clarify - nobody forces you to post.
Want hacks - enjoy hacks.

The 5 posts only give you more privileges, like the ability to vote. But you don't need that to keep your account here.
Join the chat - some points there.
Submit a new game - more points.
Best of all - submit a hack - a ton of points.
Check https://konghack.com/ucp/points/store.php for other ways to earn points.

Look around the forums, very possibly something will catch your interest. Also, sometimes Tim asks for thoughts/help about a site change he is considering.
Post your honest opinion and in no time you will have 5 posts.

Just don't post crap for the sake of posting. And don't necro a bazilion moons old threads. That's a sure path towards the banhammer :P

P.S. only 73$ ? So, the site practically has been running off Tims pocket all this time...

 

I have gone to find myself. If I return before I get back, please hold me here until I arrive.

Meh, Ive only spent about a grand of my own money.  The rest has been donated by the community. :D

If you seen someone with a sponsor logo, thank them for helping keep the site online. :)

What is the icon that looks like chrome browser a hack for? Chrome browser only? What about a blank emblem? I use 3 kinds on one game (Blank/K (kongregate symbol) and Chrome symbol)

It stands for "Other".  I like Chrome better than Opera, so a giant O was out.
