Yes!

I don't want people clicking stuff just to fudge numbers but if there's an ad for something you're interested it, by all means, click it and explore.

And, yes, it's all about funding. Our sole advertiser (obviously Autofab-THANK YOU!) funds a good portion of GFB's costs but there is still out of pocket expense... not huge but I figured if we can make up some of the difference with Google Ads and continue to keep the site free, why not?

I've seen other forums that have something like a 2 minute window to edit posts. Kind of makes it nice if you mess up on an image link, price, spelling, etc.

What about subscriptions? Enable custom user titles (among other things) for people who pay?
