Ilia, can you clone this message board... here's a sample post (which I give my full endorsement of fudforum):
http://www.conqueryourniche.com/forum/MarketingJunkies/4797

When you clicked on the link above, I'm rewarded with potential ad credits that rotate at the board.

When I post a new message, my ad is shown 250 times.

When I view a new post, my ad is displayed 10 times.

The site owner combined the power of message board marketing with the 'ol traffic exchange programs once popular several years ago.

Is this the future of message boards, Ilia -- something that can be "plugged in" here with fudForum?

Yeah you can hack this functionality into FUDforum, no plans to add this to the stock forum though. I can say it is not too hard to done, we've done similar mods for our clients in the past.

Wow -- it would be great if you could share those sites with me... I'm compiling a report about message board marketing, and I've never seen the board/traffic exchange method anyhwere else.

I'm afraid I cannot disclose the names of the past & current customers, but if you use Google I am certain you'd be able to find them. The only clue I can give you is that some of those site's forums look very different from the stock FUDforum layout.
