Tormod Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 The disable adds link has disappeared from the what's this page, as far as I can see. Look for the "Opt out" text. Try to search for it! Quote
Kayra Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 At the moment we have three kinds of ads: Google ads (which occasionally are replaced with ads from another network if Google has no ads to display), popups (only displayed for non-logged in users), and the AdLinks which are the underlined links. I think this is a fair trade-off for letting the forums be free for all. Small price to pay for this excellent site.And the subscription price is more then fair.I do not usually subscribe to sites as my varying interests would end up costing me a fortune, but I am beginning to see that this site will be the exception to the rule.

Tormod Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 Thank you for the kinds words, Kayra. We hare invested heavily in leasing a new server and software and it is costing quite a bit. It is necessary in order to keep up with the increased activity - hopefully we should be set for at least 12 months, but if things keep growing at this rate we'll be expanding again before then. :shrug: Quote
ughaibu Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 I've received an e-mail from Gleason at Kontera, telling me that I can not turn off these adverts. Quote
Tormod Posted May 4, 2006 Report Posted May 4, 2006 Thanks Ughaibu. I'll tell my contact about this. Quote
Tormod Posted May 4, 2006 Report Posted May 4, 2006 I've received an e-mail from Gleason at Kontera, telling me that I can not turn off these adverts. Ughaibu, can you please PM that e-mail to me? I have been in touch with Kontera and the opt-out feature is temporarily unavailable and will come back up ASAP. Quote

ughaibu Posted May 13, 2006 Report Posted May 13, 2006 The ads are back and the disable button has disappeared, again. Is 'Kontera' the correct spelling? Quote
