Guy T.	How does BYOND earn money to pay for the BYONDimes? People create accounts and deposit money into them. If you deposit $25 into your account, you have 250 BYONDimes. Once you've done that, you can play DragonSnot and donate some of them! :)

If, we can get advertisers to pay some cash, we could be making more then a few dimes.

There is no current agreement with advertisers.

That sort of thing could be done in the future...

On the other hand, advertising on the web is crashing right now, and many sites are going out of business because no one will pay for banner advertising anymore.

So who knows!
