:Timeshifter, you should come on [[IRC]] sometime. I assure you that we're going to be around for a while and that we'll be more successful and therefore more sustainable by keeping it ad-free and donation-based. [[User:Kudu|Kudu]] ([[User talk:Kudu|talk]]) 15:12, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for enabling email in preferences. It is good to know that your funding is longterm. Many people will want to know this before starting a wiki. Maybe you could have opt-in ads for people like me who can not donate money, but are willing to put up with ads on their wiki in order to do their bit on funding. [[wikipedia:Google AdSense|Google AdSense]] is easy to enable.

Some wikis will get popular at times, and you will get slammed. Bandwidth needs and costs will go up and down. See the info at the top of my Wikipedia user page: [[wikipedia:User:Timeshifter]]. It is not technically necessary to use servers one owns. There are many large commercial [[wikipedia:server farms|server farms]] with servers spread worldwide that could handle the bandwidth needs. They have dynamic [[wikipedia:Load balancing (computing)|load balancing]] and can handle any fluctuations in bandwidth needs. --[[User:Timeshifter|Timeshifter]] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 17:23, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
