WOW! a lot of comments have occured since i've been redirecting the link! (it should be redirected sometime between the next few minutes and 48 hours!) here's the info y'all need: -Meth: the site costs $7.18 for a year.
-Lyrical: the new ideas i have are these:
--we expand on our battles. we can make it so that the battles aren't even in the forum anymore. there will be an entire portion of the site dedicated to battles.
--we improve on the blogging and news features.
--we create a portion of the site where we can rate and review albums.
--we make it so that we can upload videos directly to the site.
--have more flash files to improve the presentation of the site.
--have an entire portion of the site dedicated to letting people know about our movement, asking people to donate to our cause, selling merchandise such as CDs and mixtapes and possibly even in the future hats, t-shirts, etc., and organizing actual local events.
-Menace: the pricing scheme can be put on the back burner for now. i have the site fully paid for a year and it cost me very little. when we start expanding and adding things to the site is when it will get expensive. that is when we need to start thinking of a pricing scheme.
