I would like users to realise that I never intended Rune Gear to be something I profit off. No, Rune Gear was just a fun project I started when I was bored, I never intended it to grow to this size, although I knew I'd work on it for the years to come. Members think all I'm doing this is to monetize the forum and make myself a profit, no. Users don't realise that over a thousand dollars I've received on Rune Gear, not $1 has been used on me. Yes, I'm being honest. Everything I receive is being used to invest it back into Rune Gear. I'm attempting to make the forum the best it can be FOR the community.

I would appreciate if members would understand that I'm not doing this for the money, I'm doing this for the community.

It's true, everything he makes goes into improving the site.

RE: I'm not in this for the money

I don't see how people think you are in this for the money.

You're doing a fine job, Elite.
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

Any GP that TE gets goes into events, I've seen it first hand.
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

I wouldn't doubt this at all.
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

I never thought anything else.
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

Yeah. I already knew this.
You seem dedicated to developing this website/community as a whole.
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

Surely no one can accuse you of that, when they can see your custom jQuery menu, custom vouch system etc. They surely don't think those come cheap?

Keep doing what you're doing Elite

I agree with this 100%. There's so many forums that I've joined, whether it be moderating it or just being a member, that I knew would fail just because of the colours/layout of the site. You can't just download some pre-made default template and expect it too be perfect for your site.

This site actually looks very nice, and the userbars/colours/general layout is PERFECT. That's one of the reasons that I'm sticking here, I know that this will get bigger and better as time goes on. :happy:
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

O truly are generous
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

I'm glad that you didn't give up on RuneGear whenever you wanted to.. :')
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

It's a good thing that you are committed to this forum purely by hobby, because otherwise you may have ended up like someone who changes things just to make more money, like omni did on HF.
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

Oh yes, I already believed this; Database hosting etc, can be extremely heavy on the wallet :3
 
RE: I'm not in this for the money

Good Job TE. This forum is really good, I think I'm going to be sticking around =]

This song started to play in my head when reading "I'm not in this for the money".
Did this happen to anyone else?

Spice Girls.

And that's good, Elite. It's terrible when an owner is too focused on only money.
