Re: FFR Suggestions

Why would they use personal, hard earned cash on making a website(thats free to use and doesnt generate revenue)

Well, there are alot of passionate people like the devs who would and if i were the owner would fork out some personal funds to advertise here and thier if it meant making the game more populated

Yeah non-profit site means a website not making revenue, but does this mean they aren't allowed to promote their website with personal income they made with other means aka ( not generated from ffr.com) This is what im wondering and people "TheSaxRunner05", doesn't seem to get that im asking this.

I don't think you understood what i was saying....below may help you understand better

When you buy advertising your not making money your spending it....

I wasn't talking about you having ads on http://www.flashflashrevolution.com, was saying buy advertising on websites in the gaming niche so the ffr player base can get bigger, doing this would not make you money. Therefore, it would not breach the non-profit contract or agreement you have with the musicians.

We simply cannot sustain paying $50 to get around 100 clicks.

I totally understand that , but everyone was saying you guys weren't allowed to spend money out of pocket on advertising cause its a breach of the non-profit agreement, but knew you were allowed because if you were to spend your own money it wasn't money generated by ffr.com so hence it would be fine to do. Some of the players, were calling me out saying i don't understand.

I see, but you are allowed to do it if you want?

Yes, we are also allowed to have a $CAD payout on the results screen instead of credits.

People generally don't shell out money to run advertisements for things that aren't going to make them the money back.

Rhythm games are kind of a niche thing anyway. Chances are if you're into them, you'll find FFR eventually.

Re: FFR Suggestions

Right, I imagine nowadays if we do get newcomers, it would be their love of rhythm games.

I think advertising for a flash-based rhythm game that was made in 2002 is a bit silly.

We should just be glad that Synth is using his personal money to keep the servers up at all.

For some reason, I really doubt this is the case anymore.

My understanding for the bulk of the life of the site, was that his hosting costs were free because he worked for the hosting company in some capacity.

There was a change a while ago when FFR was getting DDoSed on a daily basis where he was asked to move the server somewhere else. It's currently being hosted at OVH Canada.
