We do what we can here to balance the need to satisfy the forum owners' wishes for traffic vs our wishes to have content easily available for members of the forum. We are only volunteer staff at this forum, we receive no compensation for what we do, and we also have no responsibility for paying for maintenance, servers, or bandwidth used by this forum. A forum this size is a large expense that cannot be maintained by donation alone and the owners want to make a profit in return for their expenses.

As as been the trend for quite some time now, the majority of posters at forums all over the net post for profit and generate the traffic that is needed to keep forums online. This is an unfortunate trend but it's something we have to deal with at a forum of this size.

We keep an eye on posters who try to abuse their posting privileges at this forum and we try to deal with them as we can. However, in order to keep this forum running we cannot ban every crappy host that is available for use by members that post for profit unless we can prove that they are absolutely impossible to use.

Please understand, every member of staff at this forum tries to do what they can to make conditions at this forum as member friendly as they can. We also operate under a lot of constraints that would not be present if the current circumstances of all forums on the net did not exist.

We are currently the only forum of this size that I know that is allowed to enact restrictions aimed at curtailing cash posters. Please keep this in mind.

VEF always was a user friendly place, nice for classic lovers & collectors community. Not like a 99.9% of other forums (in fact - cash holes & and places of various cash whores). In fact - for these cash ones forum's members is only "masturbators with wallets" (like bastards write on their hole - rebill.me). These ones, as says one my good friend, like adepts of crappy cash sect.
