Site to be shut down

over 10 years

Unfortunately, Google decided to shut down the Adsense anyhow. I've asked for an appeal, but if they do not reply by the end of the month, I will be shutting down the site. Thanks for the good times, but I suppose it's time for me to move on.

keep the site alive for another month w/ donations. turn off games if you have to, just let the community adjust and regroup.

turning off the games would drastically reduce the cost of the site, i think

Why would AdSense really care about a site this small?

@icuttofeel- I don't think Lucid will do that to us

guys you arn't using your brains. MAYBE LUCID DOESNT WANT TO RUN THIS SITE ANYMORE AND DOESNT WANT ANYONE ELSE TO HAVE HIS PROJECT EITHER. SO THE SITE IS OVER IF WE DON'T GET THE APPEAL.

I don't want another YTMND situation. If Google wont support the site then it's best for it to peacefully go rather than on life support. This isn't Lucid's primary job or role.

With stricter moderation, for obvious reasons.

if we go with option 1. Get a different source of ad revenue. The community can do research and try and get rates if lucid is willing to share details with us. This would be the easiest fix.

Or just rename the site and host it under a new domain name :)

Also feasible, but it's not like the AdSense people wouldn't figure it out if they wanted to.

If we lose all the data on the site, someone else could easily buy the site again (maybe even code it better), and return it to its former glory.

There are two categories of solutions here:

1) lucid stays

2) lucid sells

Let's go with option 1) first, so no solutions involving lucid's involvement ending.

Arcbell has the right idea. Start brainstorming solutions instead of just talking about it. Anything helps.

I'm pretty sure the ideas have been brainstormed already.

Setting up donations for another month to wait for google is the best path to take right now. At least IMO
