Can you see the Banner up top?

I made a poll before, but worded it wrong. What I wanted to know, is can you see the banner on this forum? If not, why not? Are you using a ad blocker?

No ad blocker, can see it.

Does it lower your revenue when the ad gets blocked?

I did this so I could make the site self-sufficient, well at least somewhat. So I suppose, ya.. when someone blocks ad's it's technically hurting the site.

ps. It's not like I'm making tons of money from a single ad up there hahaha. Just thought I should point that out.

I fully support the model that allows the site to be self-sufficient through unobtrusive, tasteful banners. If it lets you put some extra clams in your pocket, again I have no objection. If some of those extra clams could be put to the guild's benefit ie vent server, that's even better.

If the site ever ceases to be self-sufficient due to a large enough portion of the membership using ad blockers, let us know.

I doubt a single banner would ever give me enough to support a vent server lol. Well, not unless I'm using specific ad's... but in order to do that I need to change the site so that google reads the content to support the higher paying ad's, like real-estate and such. But that's something I'm not going to do, because.. that would be strange lol.

This is just basically seeing how many people are using a ad blocker, no biggie really.

What banner? Teehee, my ad blocker is blocking. If that's hurting the site maybe I should turn it off.
