Bonner 1040/Nick had a bunch of questions for me and I thought I'd share. I figure others might have the same questions, so here goes.

1) Do you own this site?

Yes.

2) Who pays for all this stuff?

Ya'll do.

3) Where does masterblaster come from?

I was born in Texas, live in LA. MasterBlaster was my username at AS and TB.

4) Whats the deal with all the titles under peoples names? Sponsor seems like a common one but others are more unique, do you assign those? I looked for a way to change mine, maybe i missed it.

They're just silly forum extras, to be played with. Initially, I'll assign the title, but ya'll can change it whatever you want. If anyone can't do that, PM me and I'll fix it. The title "Sponsor" is something entirely different that appears when a donation is given. If you'll look, you'll see it's actually in a different location altogether.

5) If i were to donate, where does that money go? To repay the investment or towards upkeep?

Yes. :)

6) Are upkeep costs significant?

Nope, not really. Anyone can have a forum.

7) edit

8] Where do the rotator pics come from? all the posts or specific database?

They're a collection from everyone here: initially they were all me. I have thousands loaded into a database at Ipowerweb. Everytime you refresh the screen, a new shot will appear. My fav shots have been loaded multiple times, just so they'd appear more often.



Any more questions?
 
What iteration of the Tree House is this?

Do you have to be a tree climber to join?

I think this is the 3rd or 4th TreeHouse? And no, you don't have to be a member.

Next!
 
Some people give more, some people give less.

With the approximate number of regular donor's, what's the ballpark dollar amount needed per person to keep things running?

I'd drop the mention about TB if I were you. It would seem less petty.

Does the upkeep of the site take a lot of time day to day?

How many moderators are there and who are they?
Is there any paid advertising dictating any rules on the site?
Is there any significance to post count? :)
