We all know there are technical issues with ShoutWire. These need to be fixed first and foremost. Anyone having problems, detail them in the comment section and we will get to work on fixing them before anything else.

We are also having a problem with ads. The problem is that we need these to survive yet nobody wants to fucking see them. What we need here is suggestions on nice unobtrusive ads that will also make enough money to pay our bandwidth. JD8Coke's idea was to put a paypal donation tab on the site, and once we reach a certain number each month, ads get taken down. We could always sell merchandise to add to this. Alternatively, if anyone knows of any non-obtrusive ad services, please leave your suggestion here.

We also need suggestions on SFW and NSFW crap. Opinons, more like. Myself and certain members of staff differ greatly with our ideas on this subject. I would like one day out of the week where SW is completely not safe for work. Some believe this might drive away users. We would like to know what you have to say about SW and NSFW shit.

Also, what would you like to see more of on SW? Give us your suggestions and we will do our best to impliment them.

Every post will be considered and ongoing discussion will be held in the comment section. Even I will comment, which is just craziness.

Fuck Safe for work. If you are at work, and looking at shoutwire you are already in shit. Make up your own excuse for the titties.

Also maybe if some people clicked ads it would help with the revenue. That or I figure we can dress j3ff up in a skirt, and make him shake his money maker.

The ad's are annoying but i can live with the one's around the site as Adblock was invented and im not an idiot so i use it, but its the one's on the front page as articles that piss me off the most. There not news and therefore should not be there. Also more ed's on different topics otherwise Sw is cool IMO.

WAIT That fat ugly bitch Oprah Winfry is girl of the week, WTF happened here guys? You all suddenly develop a fetish for rich fat black mama's with a superiority complex or is this some kind of joke? Who decided on her, come on own up you sad individual.

well you ALL stole ALL your ideas from me so there!

the paypal idea sounds good.

the only 2 things that bug me are the redirects that cant be skipped and the censership. Get rid of those things and this place will be what it once was.

Not saying anything new. just rambling.

Don't even contemplate making this site NSFW. This is one of the only sites our fascist blocking software allows.

rofl zero you thief.

well we all no the problems with FX and they suck. But as i am currently having to delete my cookies each time to come on, it would be nice if the default was set to NSFW and infinite comments on a page. It's just a drag having to change it and i'm sure no one actually uses those settings as default.

Also using IE at work i got sent to some beauty page from front page without clicking anything and get attacked by a trojan that the mcafee virus scan detected and deleted WTf is with that?

So the entire problem with FF is just deleting cookies? Does anyone else have any other issues with FF?

It sometimes does not work even if I deleted cookies. The only sure way for me was accessing my profile page first before accessing other parts of SW. Don't even need to delete cookies that way.

Bulshoy's tip.

micmac988Premature Splooging
Ok, ladies, and some of you gents, this is for you.At some point in time EVERY guy has cum too soon. And it IS because he has a problem; over stimulation.Next to basement dwellers, married men have one of the worst sex lives. For married men it's a case of familiarity breeding contempt. For the basement dwellers, it's just lack of social skills and the sight of real live boobs.Women, if a guy cums quickly, it's a sign that he's very anxious to rock your thigh clam a...
