Oh No!! The Org's Gone Commercial! Am I the only one that's seeing these ads in every thread? Is the org going commercial?

Yeah, it was just a shock this morning to see all these adverts out of the blue. I guess we'll get used to it. Who knows, this might mean they can pay someone to get the search button sorted out.  “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

I only started this thread as a kneejerk reaction to suddenly finding adverts all over the joint. It was just a surprise, that's all. “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

I don't mind the banner ads at all. What's slightly problematic for me are the embedded ad links in the individual posts. | |

Aesthetically, it's a step back. | |

It's a bit confusing to read replies now. I've been away a month or so and come back to a new weird looking org! | |

these adsense ads are a great way to earn extra money..on my small site i use to average $200 a month from adsense ads and with the amount of users here on the org this should earn the org some nice money...nothing wrong with that at all no matter what your always in my heart | |

Time to give up on that dream. I expect the new Guns n' Roses album to be released before the search function is restored...  | |

I agree. I can easily overlook the banner ad, but I don't like how it's making it look like I am linking my posts to shit on amazon.... | |

I'm going to safely assume this isn't a conflict with the site set-up, and Prince rules/attorneys not wanting anyone to make $$ from his talent or lackofabilitytosustainhisownwebsitestuff. I think mods should be paid and the gov't would like the tax revenue. So it must be A-OK. The IRS will probably be on the site's side..... | |
