Maybe in the distant future we can have interactive time-travelling banners, but for now 2D should be fine.
Ive tried google ads. But that is not possible whit paypal. I can connect my bank account, but not so sure how smart that would be 
Then i tried facebook ads. It works whit paypal, and is much easy'r to use. But i got an error saying i needed to connect my CC whit my account, and i dont have one.
Ive mailed them, and after 3,5 days i got a mail back saying i needed to contact then on the phone, i called and was in wait for 5minutes + , so i hung up beeing frustrated
ill try again later lol

I would strongly discourage anyone from putting their own money into supporting the game.
It's quite clear that Azzer doesn't care about the game anymore. He last posted on the forums in August 2010 and the last game update was in May 2010. That is an utter disgrace in my opinion. Furthermore, when the game was being updated, it was hardly regular or top-quality updates. Look at the game, it's stuck in the 90s. Text only games were great when everyone was using dial up but, nowadays, more is needed.
I understand that people still enjoy the game and want to improve it but, seriously, you'd be far better off putting your time and money into developing a game similar to Bushtarion. Honestly, it wouldn't take long at all to code something along the same lines. If I remember correctly, Azzer coded Age 1 in less than 2 weeks.

Polo speaks truth.
To be honest, I think advertising could just go as far as putting a small word in on some forum sites, just ask if anyone else there plays it and explain a little, maybe people will get curious and check it out
If a few of us did this we could get another 50 or so potential players quite easily!

Coding a game as successful as bushtarion with as many active users is easier said than done.

No, I say it as someone who knows what they're talking about because I do web development everyday.

Hah. It's tempting. Unfortunately, I don't really have the time/money for it.
Tbh, between polo's nobreakspace and my battle-calc, we've already got alot of the code necessary. All that's left to do is the boring stuff, which no1 can be bothered with. Site integration and layout. As Polo says, it wouldn't take more than a couple of weeks. But nobody has a couple of weeks to dedicate to it.
