You see the ads but do you read them?

You're supposed to see them. I'm not going to put advertising on the site that you, a sponsor, cannot see. The same goes for everyone with an interest in what is being displayed on the page including admins, moderators and COs. All of you see ALL of the ads not because I want you to buy stuff but because I think it's in your interest to know everything that is displayed on every page.

Well you're a gold member, you shouldn't see them. The one in question is new and I guess I messed it up. I'll fix it for the next update. The number of total ads was reduced . For example the ads which used to appear between posts are gone, replaced by one at the top.
Yeah i was wondering this too... I havent gotten any adds until about last week.. i thought maybe my membership expired but no..

Oh well atleast its not just me!

My point is I never saw them until last week. Personally, the S2ki add are good to see, the Google Ads just take up Real estate at the top of the screen. At 800x600, the headers and ads take up a fullscreen

Only about 2% of people view the site less than 1024px wide. The header doesn't even fit fully in 800px.

Yes. Only Gold Members are immune to the ads.
