Advertisements?

[Scrubosaur]

I don't remember banners across the top of the forums.

use a better browser and install adblock

or, let them display so admins can earn a tiny revenue from the few seconds it takes you to notice it. which in turn allows them to continue hosting / curating this sandbox they let us play and shitpost in

Mostly supports hardware costs, which have been out of my pocket for the last several years.

Donations are typically set aside for the monthly data center costs, only used for hardware once or twice.

Is there a way that the ads can be formatted to be the same size as the message board? It's fucking up the display at the moment for me.

Or....turn it off for people that are logged in.
Or....turn if off for people that donate via paypal.
Or....turn if off everywhere but the RnF forums / the post that is getting all the hits.

I didn't know it was possible not to beeline for adblock the first time you open a browser.

How well does Adsense pay just for pageviews? I've never monetized a site but had been thinking about it. I read you can get up to a dollar per thousand pageviews, but I assumed this would only be true when it's a thousand different people. I get like 1500 pageviews a day on the leaderboard so it's not really worth it, but the TMO website gets 5k to 10k pageviews per day, granted it's from the same handful of people. I sort of figure that when the same crew of 100 people are generating all the traffic and not clicking anything that you don't really get paid jack for it. Something with P99's amount of traffic, though, maybe you do?

You can disable adblock specifically for P1999 to help out the devs. I did. Right click that stop sign.
