Elakiri.com is one of Sri Lanka's largest community sites. Number of members on this forum is increasing daily. And people, who are active here most of the time would have noticed, Elakiri.com not working sometimes. I guess most of you've seen a sever over load error.

And now this is happening frequently. So as we've talked abt this in several threads here, reason for the error is overload in Elakiri.com's server. So this has to be solved somehow. I guess the solution would be a new powerfull server, which would cost some big money.

So am suggesting the Administrator to run some non-intrusive text advertisements on the site to make some money for a new server. But am not sure whether most of you would agree. But this problem has to be solved. So I have put a poll, vote and let know, your opinion.

If we like to see more development of Elakiri, Administrators need more money.. They can earn money by Putting ads in site..

But that Ads must not annoy the visitors of site...

True. That's where the adblockers come in. Stupid shanX thinks they are not relevant to this thread. :rolleyes: What a jerk.
Besides, knowledge about this extension can easily make a person who originally was gonna vote for #1, jump to #2. It's almost completely related to the thread. But IE junkies will have to find their own blockers. :rolleyes:

Ok, I didn't know that by blocking these ads, the ad servers are actually knowing that we don't see them (hence no profit to the site) :sorry:

But you know, if people will find them slow (text or no text, if the servers are slow, it will be slow!), people could get more upset than the current state.

Ok then...

Anyway ads not gonna effect the Elakiri server, i mean ads wudnt be served by Elakiri server :yes: They would be served by Ad providers server, so no connection to Elakiri server at all :yes: So site wud function as same as it is now :yes: So it wudnt affect Elakiri ppl.

The idea of this thread is to know whether ppl wud like to see ads on this site, coz if much ppl wudnt like, it'd affect the spirit of Elakiri :yes: So that we cud make a conclusion whethr or not to run ads :yes: And specially to find out a solution to this server load error, it really makes life suck, when we hav to make a post :D

We do notice, because we only have 1kBps or so speed as we are always downloading torrents. :D

If you are talking about Google ads, then they will load fast. I don't know about others though.
