IWC: Less adds for a fee?

An idea that I had would maybe to pay some sort of fee (one time is my preferance) that would remove some if not all of the adds. I personaly am finiding the "adds by google" at the bottom anoying and they take up space. I think it would be nice for the people who pay to be able to turn off some, or all of the adds.

I though that either a onetime, or yearly fee would help. something around $20USD, which I think is a reasonable amount. This would also allow money to go to AF to help pay for he costs of running such a large free (keyword Free) forum. I feel that it is time for the members to be able to give back

I know a while back AF had a donation drive which I would have participated in if I had the money at the time. And Im sure that many new members would also like to contribute to the wonderfull communtiy here at AF.

I am just throwing this idea out there even though I do not know how much work it would take to do. So if someone with a better knowladge of Web design could respond that woudl be helpfull.

There are many online support groups for automobiles. What is different, and so great, about AF is that it is free.

A one-time fee would not be a very good way to do it. Web hosting alone is probably thousands (unless I way over estimated the site traffic). Ads pay good money, probably much more than you would want to pay.

Just ignore the ads. Problem solved.
