    You may have noticed the Google Ads on the hack pages on Hacktube, and I'm really making this news post because I want to clarify that this isn't a money grabbing campaign. I personally am not profiting from members' hacks.


    This money is going into an "SSRG fund", the goal primarily is to fund the programming of an improved flash-based emulator, hopefully with MegaCD and (maybe) 32X support.


    So please occasionally give these ads a click, as it will really help improve the site and services we offer.


    Thank you!

    I know that this is not the right place to say this, but would it be possible to have a link to hack tube at the top of the forum page to go along with the Home and IRC stuff? It is abit of a hassle getting to it from the forum.

    Because clicking "Home" and then "Hacktube" is so much hassle.


    Anyway, this doesn't really affect me at all since I use Adblock Plus. Dunno if you still get money from that, but oh well. =P

    Maybe for you, but I timed how long it took for me to load from the forum to the Hacktube main page, and it took slightly longer than a minute (Without having anything else loading).
