Hi Jasper,
I don't have vote "I have another idea." But I want to share another site with the same kund of discussion to you. There this discussion has taken place about 4 years ago, and they have always said. This site is ad-free and still is.
The situation there was like here. One webmaster build a site (that time about modeltrains) with a forum. The Forum became bigger and bigger and bigger, and the hosting cost were to big to fit from one pocket (and unfortenately he lost his job...)
Some active users of the site then have started a "donatie actie" which was repeted every year. By this action everyone wo use the site is asked to save a couple of euro's to the bankaccount of the site. And the choise if an how many is to you. Given nothing, no problem.
In the past we've had one time that there was another user wich has his own bussiness in marketing products. So we've had a year that everyone wo submitted a gift got a nice pin with the logo of the site.
The URL is [url:3mu6jwpd]http://www.beneluxrail.net[/url] by the way.
(you can see the link "jaarlijkse donatie actie" in the mainpage.)
