    I do understand that you have to monetize the forum but giving me that "error" page with a CPA offer every 10th page I visit is lame. Also getting DB error, timeout error, gateway error, bad-planet-alignment error ... FFS you have tens of thousands of members and you piss on them with this crap.

    I mean is this "error-vertising" the best you can do to market the forum?

    Maybe the Facebook thing is meant as a joke,and not a real CPA offer.

    Haha man, just calm down, you see that the forum goes down a lot, its getting DDOS-ed i guess.

    But, you are right, maybe some random joke and a link to an other product would make better money for them on those 404 pages :)
