I dont see an [HTTPS://Shift518.ny.albany.onlyaccessablehere.com](HTTPS://Shift518.ny.albany.onlyaccessablehere.com) in my url bar. Its the internets, shift is WORLD WIDE homie. It will never and can never be a “local” site. local orientated sure, but not closing the doors to people outside a 50 mile radius! Lets hand out VPN tokens and we can all sign into the server, and browse the site on an intranet. :rofl I am just busting balls, I get your point. In fact I have been arguing that for EVER, the fact that people run their mouths inappropriately a lot and you never know who you might pull up next to at a gas pump. > > Users should not need to pay, donations are another thing. If people want to contribute, but not want to cough up money to do so, SHAPE UP and turn this place on to more people. Making the place feel like the cool table in the lunch room and not inviting outsiders in is only hurting you in the end. Sponsors like myself help fund the site, we do so becasue we stand to make money at our business from referrals coming from Shift518, so we pay our fees without hesitation. Without new people coming here I wouldn’t be in a position I am to make my business grow, so it would be useless for me to advertise here. Take ASS,CRC,IHS,Cap.Gold out of the picture and its back on Vlads shoulders to fund the site, just to get people attacking him for dumb shit… I doubt he will keep it going. > > we all have a role to play here, if we want to be here. Seems you’re one of the only few people here that get it. And BigRed since you keep coming in here trying to prove that I’m being unreasonable and unfair, let me pull some quotes from PM’s. _ **cliffnotes are in bold** _\*\* > [@Vovchandr](#): > > [quote=big red]vlad what did you have in mind for sponsorship?

You wanted 3 months right? We could start counting in June and end at the end of August. Have you decided which way you want to do it? Pre or retroactive?[/quote] what way would you suggest?[/quote] Haven’t heard from you? You never send me a banner either? I’m assuming you didn’t move forward with the agreement so if you’d like to market next year we can start over. Right now there is another detailing sponsor inquiring about vending prices so we shall see.[/quote][/quote] That was on July 30th.

I’m sure I’ll find another detailer to gladly advertise on the site, Kramer has been wanting to do it for quite some time and there are many others, maybe even Bakerian, but have fun having your name and your business ethics tarnished over the petty money. 🍿pop Cliffs: read **bold** --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/do-not-talk-about-family-tazers-or-dead-people-itt/261185)._
