First, some facts about the TMF

The TMF is the number 1 search result on google for the word "tickling" and has been for several years.
Since may of 2005 to now (September of 2005) we have added over 9000 members, bringing our total to 25,000 registered members, and our membership continues to grow at a rate of over 1000 new registrations per month.
(In the time since I wrote this, we have DOUBLED our membership. We now have over 50,000 members!)
We do approximately one Terabyte (1000 Gigabytes or 1 million Megabytes) of bandwidth every month!
(In the time since I wrote this, we have DOUBLED our traffic, now doing almost 2 terabytes every month!)
We average over 600 active members online at any given time. That number never dips below 450, and sometimes spikes at high as 900!
(In the time since I wrote this, we have DOUBLED our active membership, now averaging 900-1200 people on at one time, with a record of over 2000 at once!)
Despite having pruned over 200,000 posts last year to reduce our database before moving to a larger server, we have over a half-million posts in our various forums!
(In the time since I wrote this, we have DOUBLED our posts as well, with over a million posts and over a hundred-thousand threads!)
In short, the TMF has been and continues to be the central hub around which all online tickling revolves, and the heart of the online tickling community!
How much does it cost?

We currently offer four advertising packages on the TMF.
- Your own forum: ($160/month)
  On the front page of the TMF you will see that several tickling-related businesses, such as MTJ Publishing and TC video, have their own forums, with links to their websites right there on the front page. Within that forum you can create as many sub-forums as you wish, to distinguuish between your various websites for example, or to have seperate forums for technical issues and content discussion.
  
  For example, you might have the top forum called My Tickling Company, with a link to your website in the description of the forum. Then within that forum you might have one sub-forum called "My Downloadable Clips Website" and another called "My Membership Site." And if you choose, you could have sub-forums within each of those to further seperate posts into technical problems and content discussion, as mentioned above.
- Weekly What's New box: ($160/month)
  In the upper left corner of the main page is where we post the days news and new activity reports from within the tickling community. This can include one or more links to related locations on your site, as well as a small graphic (A picture truly is worth a thousand word!) Placement (closeness to the top of the page) is in the order that they were received, on a first come - first in line basis.
- Combination What's New Box and your own Forum ($250/month)
  If you wish to have both a Weekly What's New Box and your own Forum, the cost is discounted down to $250/month. This is not a lot of money since the TMF can and should be the central thrust of any serious tickling producers advertising budget, as it is the center of the online tickling community.
- Chatroom banner placement ($100/4 months)
  The TMF chatroom is the most popular tickling-themed chatroom online. Show your banner to your core audience for a very low price. At $25 per month, very few people will have to respond to this advertisement in order for it to be cost effective.
