I have one too - and it's very much a British ad.

Superb news - good grovelling [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] :wink:

It's up to us now to keep clicking on these banners and earn NSC a few bob.

Don't click them for the hell of it, we will lose the deal with Adsense.

ANYONE posting bare norks will be booted off NSC for a long time, no second chances.

Are they back ? I can't see them now because Adblock removes all the shit from the page.

It's not google. It's Ad choice. Im sure NSC will earn more than with Goofle anyhow

It is Google. I filed an appeal which was accepted.

Please do not randomly click as that will cause NSC to get booted off too. The 'natural' clicks, along with the tens of thousands of eyeballs, that NSC gets earns us a nice amount of Adsense income.

This.

I've said it before but I'm close to doing it now - I can install something that will mean people running Adblock, and similar, can't see NSC at all. If people are not viewing the ads that support NSC, why should we give them a site to enjoy? In fact I might just start banning all such people, starting now.

I've no problem with Adwords but if you start letting memory hogging flash banners take up screen real estate, you're going to have people blocking them

You're getting your Google programmes muddled. Adwords is where people pay to have their adverts presented.

We run Adsense. Today we have the same mix of text and graphical ads as we have had for several years now.

As I say - people block NSC ads, I'll block them. Sounds like a fair deal to me.

Isn't this Adwords in the quick reply box?

Always the same four ads:

Calendar, bookmarks, tagging and Vbulletin forum

At the top of the page I'm getting an ad for dedicated servers in Australia, bizarrely

Both of them are Adsense. There are many different formats - if you choose a narrow thin strip, then there is only room for brief textual ads. Bigger ad units can accomodate graphics too.

Understood, but is there a way to let Adblock see the Ads on NSC but block for other sites - I.e. Make NSC whitelisted?

I am happy to see ads on NSC, but not on every other site?

There is an option to whitelist sites in AdblockPlus I think. Haven't used Firefox in ages so dunno.

wouldn't it be better to redirect to a "holding page" or suchlike ? I'm sure I'm not alone is using different browsers/computers to access NSC and to be banned because I forgot to turn adblocking off on a particular browser seems a bit severe whereas a redirect would remind me to modify the browser to allow ads on NSC.

I think they'll both have the same effect.
