This thread may be rather long, so I do apologize in advance, but it does contain some very necessary information, so please be sure to read it all the way through.
As most of you are already aware, our Google Adsense account was temporarily suspended after reaching $70 in revenue. With this being said, all member cash-out requests have been processed using my personal funds and not the advertisement revenue. Therefore, to maintain website stability and to ensure that I can continue to pay you guys, we have had to make some temporary adjustments in regard to RIF Point crediting. As you are already aware, we were offering 10 RIF Points per post, and 15 RIF Points per thread, however, we are not able to offer this as of right now due to a lack of website revenue. This will not be permanent, but only temporary until we can work something out over the next couple of weeks to find a new revenue stream.
Here is how you will be credited as of now:

We know that the above information can be both frusterating and upsetting. However, just know that this is a way that we can continue to pay you guys in the midst of no website revenue. This is not permenent, but is only temporary until another mean of revenue is found. I wished that there was another way around this, but unfortunately there is not. We have applied to various advertisement platforms and are currently waiting to be approved.
Please let me know if you guys have any questions or concerns in regard to this change. I'll be happy to assist.
