    If you haven't already, you should check out http://pagefair.com/ they have a free tool you can use to measure the amount of blocked ads on a site so you have numbers to measure while you try different approaches to ad placements and appeals.

    I've said this before, and I'll say it again. It's being worked on!
    Please be patient. Life gets in the way of things.

    Thanks, I'll definitely check this out.

    I've found myself using the Recent Posts instead, and found it much more useful. Click on search, there should be a down arrow, click on that and it will have a thing called 'useful searches' and there will be a link for 'recent posts.

    You can use the old forum theme - that's what I use.

    A lot of things are implemented for the Space theme, so if things look weird on the old theme, I apologize.

    Old theme looks fine to me, haven't noticed anything significantly different or unusual since the space theme was added.

    Is it possible to have an option in which I, as a donator, can turn ads back on? They honestly weren't that bad to me and I wouldn't mind having them to help out.

    Concurred. I, for one, would never turn off ads. They're almost as much fun as the captchas when voting! Example!

    Man, all I ever get is banner ads like "There is such as a Best Western in Lincoln, Nebraska" or "hey do you want to buy a toyota though." I never get trivia ;_; (wasn't it like thirteen?).

    Maybe it's because my browser knows I'm easily amused and distracted. Who knows.

    Also: The question is awful. The most correct answer there is 14, if you only count Jesus, his twelve closest disciples, and Mary Magdalene. Most forget the last one, so it's probably 13, or 12 if they somehow forgot Jesus. In reality, however, Jesus had twelve of his closest disciples in addition to many more, some of whom were almost certainly in attendance. And there were more women there than Magdalene, so... Yeah, we don't actually know.

    ...Yay.

    ...O-Omg.

    Forum ads, I had no idea! Thank you for telling me! You know, I initially doubted you, but I'm starting to think I judged you a little too quickly. You've saved me from being unlawfully surveilled by any others in the future! And after that amazing and kind deal that you showed me for kitchen supplies the other day...

    [​IMG]

    ...I'm starting to think that I was much too harsh on you at first! I have a feeling that this is the beginning of a beautiful and wonderful friend...

    no.

    Those are very interesting ads. All I get are trading card games and web comics.

    Text ads have been removed from in-between posts to help comply with AdBlock Plus whitelisting policies.
