Title: Adverts on threads
Post by: thedarkprince on Saturday, February 5, 2011, 13:52:16
When did the Adverts start appearing in the threads? Only just noticed them but already getting on my tits. If the Adverts help to generate a bit if cash for running the forum then all well and good but if not can we go back to having the weird horse and dog adverts?

They shouldn't be showing for you as you have a high enough post count for them to be hidden. There's still some teething problems, so apologies for all those they annoy, but sit tight and soon enough all will be well!

I see them. Not that fussed. If its a way for the site to make money, fair play.

When they disappear, can you let me know please? Hopefully I can sort it within the hour.

Edit: Should be sorted now. More than 500 posts and ads disappear. Those that see them will be relieved to hear half of them aren't working so there's more to come. :D

They're live again now. They should not be present for anyone with more than 500 posts. If they are let me know please!

Ah, wait. That's probably because of AdBlock :)

It could do. That'd be the hope. Whether it makes enough to cover the expenses or or not, is something we'll know in about a month or so. It's already made some money, but I'm experimenting with ads to see if it can become a sustainable business and cover it's own costs. :)

I am sending you a bill at 50p for each post I've ever made.
