Ad Removal System Suggestion

[lisss001]

Well, I have an edia about how an ad-removal system could work. This is how:

Impressions System:

Admin sets all info such as how many credits member may purchase per $1 that they pay. All email paypal info is stored in the database. With each new forum a new table called impressions purchased is created. Each time a forum loads a pre-defined php script used in the footer of each forum subtracts 1 point from the database, however once all points have cleared as will be re-enabed.

For Example:

- I start off with an AD-Enabled Forum
- I then purchase 1,000 credits for 1,000 add free impressions for my forum via paypal for $1
- This lauches a script that adds 1,000 points to the mysql table for my forum
- Each time a page is loaded a script subtracts -1 from the database
- When the forums total of points reaches 0 ads are re-enabled

I guess this is how it would work, am I correct ?

That sounds like a good idea, I will probably add it to the next beta. One thing I am working on for the next beta is adding PayPal integration so the ads are automatically removed when they pay for ad removal.

Thanks, I would love that feature, I just need to learn php before I am able to program like that. At the current time I just don't havethe time to learn a language like that, however I am glad to hear the concept would work. I woud love to see this in the next beta, thanks ;)

Derek,
You can add other solutions than paypal. Many countries don't have a paypal support (mine, for example) and this makes the whole feature useless.
Maybe if you add some credit cards support (visa and master card for example) it would be better.

I'll have to see. Right now I only know how to implement PayPal support, I will definitely look into others later on as well though.
