Do you see ads?[ 77 votes ]
1. Yes 6 / 8%
2. No 71 / 92%

It has come to my attention that at least one person sees ads on certain words on these forums. It is extremely important to me that I do not make any money from this site and I would never put any ad banner or money-making features on here. (At the very least, not without most of this community's approval)

The person who is claiming this site has ads is not important, and I don't need or want it said if you know who.

Just pick the poll option that matches whether or not you see ads, and if you DO in fact see ads, please check your system thoroughly for spyware.

Just for reference, this is the type of ad I am referring to:

Even if you put up ads I doubt I'd see them.

Ads = a no go. A hate seeing ads on websites I visit 20 times a day. If I want to see ads, I'll watch TV.

I don't see any ads here, I use several different browsers and pc's to view these forums, ranging from firefox2.0, ie 6.x and i.e 7.x.
However I have seen those shitty ads on other sites, those ones in particular are extremely annoying.

Strange that people would vote "yes" and yet not elaborate...probably some tards who just voted yes to be dicks.

The 'yes' voters are probably pissing about and referencing personal ads in peoples sigs.

Nonetheless, the poster you got this off was only messing around,m and wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

messing around? So he faked a screenshot? I smell bullshit. I'm guessing he has spyware and is just embarrassed that he made an ass of himself Razz

"Ad Brite" is known spyware that causes popups by altering normal page HTML. Tell your buddy to run AdAware and stop making false accusations. Next he will say that the forums have goastse popups and forget to mention that he visits gay porn sites.

here is what was posted before the SS:

Or how about this (this isn't related, but still funny): now they have an ad-sense feature built in so every time your mouse goes over keywords it pops up an ad. Haha. That's so gay!


In a thread about renforum...well...read the bold part...

I'm not sure what you are getting at. The fact of the matter is what is said is 100% false, and unless he photoshopped the screenshot, it seems obvious he is infected with spyware that made it look like the site has Ads.

Hopefully now that he made a fool of himself he realizes he is infected and will run AdAware.
