Re: Moderator desperately needed!
Ad networks pay per impression, regardless if anyone clicks. This is the Adsense screen shot from one of my websites:
RPM.jpg
Impressions RPM = Revenue per thousand impressions. Revenue per click is a totally different metric. For 2019 one of my sites earned $842 just for pageviews.
Here's the screen shot from om Ezioc:
ePMV.jpg
ePMV = Total earnings per thousand visitors. Last month another of my sites earned $6.60 just for pageviews.
It isn't much but that's just revenue just from pageviews Obviously, more is earned when people actually click on ads, and then even more is earned through affiliate revenue. Ad blockers or not, pageviews = revenue.Last edited by D_L_P; 06-10-2020, 05:50 AM.Comment

Re: Moderator desperately needed!
Did you receive and reply to the Welcome letter that is automatically sent when you joined? If you haven't, check your spam and junk mail folders. Until you do reply you can not post to technical forums. If you have not replied and cannot find it, do the following:- White list admin@copytechnet.com by adding it to your address book. If you are using an ISP provided email and accessing it through an email program and not directly online, you will need to do this both in the program and the ISP's webmail access.
- If you do not have a secondary email address create one and make sure admin@copytechnet.com is white listed.
- Change the email address in your forum profile to your secondary email address. This will generate a confirmation email which once you reply to it your membership will be activated.
Should that not work, you will need to create a new post in Site Feedback & Questions, you should be allowed to do so, stating your problem and then wait until aneurysm gets to it.I have no idea if low post count people need moderator approval or not, it's been far too long since I was that low. If indeed that is the case, then you have fallen victim to exactly what this current thread is all about, the need of another over-lord. The only person who has the capacity to "moderate" this forum hasn't been on in over three weeks when I checked a couple days ago.
It seems that you can reply to posts that are already here, but maybe just not start a new thread? If you are in fact being moderated because of a low post count, I'd say just make a bunch of useless replies in the "TEST" section of the forum. Get your post count up to maybe 10 or 15 posts and then see if you can start a new thread without the need for moderator approval.
Best I can tell you at this point...
I changed my e-mail, and used activation link, but it still would not let me post without moderator approval.
However I have posted enough to obtain a count of 5 posts and it worked. I am now able to post to technical forum without the need of moderator approval.
PS. Posting in "TEST" section is not increasing post count.Comment

It does seem that low post count triggers anti-spam measures.

Good luck with finding solutions for your problem.
P.S
Maybe posting in Newbee check in section is cleverer way to increase your posts counter, good job.A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.

Re: Moderator desperately needed!
If, let's say, 10 long-time active members would volunteer to moderate, then the job woulnd't need to be done by just one person taking a lot of his/her precious time; those 10 could log in once in a while, with their own timing, and check if everything was running smoothly.'

Valid suggestion but good luck finding 10 people moderating the forum in the same manner.
Maybe IF we may clone 10 times somebody like Synthohol for mods
I like to think that most people here are respected, gentlemanlike and acknowledged by their families and friends and colleagues. Unfortunately then eventually things come to politics...and things become ugly.

Well, as long as there no obligation or mandatory duty, I'm up for it, if needed. So just need to find 9 more...

I believe even those rare "techs" who want frimwares and get offended if they don't get it deserve to be kept for archival purposes - and the lulz!' "But the salesman said . . ." The salesman's an asshole!'

Re: Moderator desperately needed!
I've been waiting for my new thread (the current problem I'm trying to solve) to be approved by the moderator for a couple of days now. That'd be one good reason to have a moderator that has the time and attention for this forum.Comment

Re: Moderator desperately needed!
The only person that can do moderating hasn't been here in over 4 weeks. Makes me wonder how many other new members posts are sitting waiting for "approval". That right there is a HUGE deterrent for new, legit, members; their posts never get through so they pack their bags and leave. That's certainly going to help this forum grow!A Ricoh Service Tech for 7 year. A Konica Minolta Service Tech for 7 years. Now, KM service manager for 4 years.
