    This is much better, thanks. I'd just make a few changes: "The sites ads" should be "The site's ads", and the link's blue text over a dark blueish background is pretty hard to see, I'd suggest a lighter shade.

    That can be done with 1 line of code... the question is... will you?

    Allowing ads as long as they do not become overbearing, disruptive, or noxious. I seem to remember enabling ABP (and leaving it on ever since) due to one such ad that made it difficult to read posts because it kept flashing, or something asinine.

    Point is... often the is a reason why people choose to block ads. Be VERY careful what you do for revenue- it could cost you FAR MORE in the future for doing something counter to the user experience.

    Obviously I'm a psychopath so the notion of guilt is foreign to me but I've heard tell that guilt is best reserved for things other than the fact you prevented someone from punching you in the face.

    Anyway that's just my opinion and now I'm off to either kill a dog or pee my bed.
    Respect my lack of authority.

    Is that what you are calling ugly homosecksuals these days? Couldn't you just ask him to leave without resorting to violence or territorialism?

    I see the ads at the very top of the screen for a split-second. Not sure if that is counting as a "displayed" ad, or not.
    You probably have an ad blocker that uses css to hide the ads after the site loads. I prefer firefox over chrome due to this as chrome inhibits addons from actually blocking scripts/ads. No script and adblock plus actually prevent elements from loading in Firefox instead of having everything load and do its' thing and then hide them.

    Thanks for this info. If true, it works out nicely for the site (who gets paid for the load) and the user who does not have to keep looking at the ad. The only loser would be the advertiser, and I've never had much sympathy for them.

    We rarely have pay per show on the site. They generally are paying for slot or they are affiliate types. With other type ads youde likely be looking at the annoying types. Weve always tried to stay off these and they really dont generate much also...

    Like I said, I've re-enabled ads for the site. Nothing bothersome currently.
