I was wondering how they could be making money off us too. I saw the ads on two peas, but don't see any here. I didn't change any of my settings. Strange!

Um, one of the overriding terms of use for ProBoards is that you agree not to use any ad blocking while on this site, folks.

Huh- I didn't even realize I was! Like I said, I saw the ads on two peas. I wonder why I don't see them here? If it helps the board, I'm happy to disable it. Any idea how I do that? ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Q_m8lDOvc_3Le3r1GKdf.jpg)

I don't have an ad blocker that I am aware of either (nor do I see adverts). Strange.

Same here. There is a strap line advertising tapatalk at the top of the page but that is all. i'm on my ipad though. Perhaps that makes a difference?

I always saw the Two Peas ones too. As well as the ads on the other forums I frequent.

Mine says, "Ads blocked on this page 4" - I have adblock as well, so I don't see them. The weird thing is I DON'T have ad block and I'm not seeing them. I see them on any other site I go to.

It it may be that external ads will start showing up after we've been here a little while, and the only ads being used for the first couple weeks or so are ProBoard's own ads.

I will have to figure out if I can turn it off just for this site. I would assume so. If it's Adblock you can turn it off for a domain, which is what I've done for here.

I think when you first sign up with ProBoards you get a limited time period of no ads, but then unless you pay for it they will be showing up. If you click on "Click here to remove banner ads from this forum" below..it just takes you to where you can pay them to not display them.

I'm on my iPad, I don't have a web blocker app, I had to delete app in order to get Big Brother live feeds. Anyway, if ads do start showing and you don't want to see them, click on link at bottom of page, "click here to remove ads". It will take you here. I would be happy to pay $6 a month to keep board ad free and insure we have this board forever and ever and ever!

I would be happy to pay $6 a month to keep board ad free and insure we have this board forever and ever and ever! It would cost a LOT more than $6 a month to keep this place entirely ad-free! (Hence why they're happy to give us freebies they'd normally charge for...) I have just managed to find out about an option for individuals who really don't want to see ads. If you go to your own profile, and onto the Gifts tab, you should have the option to upgrade to ProBoards+ which is a personal ad free subscription. Doesn't affect the ads shown to anyone else, just the person who buys the sub.

I am on another Pro-boards forum and I've seen the ads . . . but not on here yet. They are coming folks! ![:smile:](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) But honestly they are not too distracting and often target places that we would like visit any way! You know like Jo-Anns is the first one that comes to mind!

I don't see any ads on my iPad and I don't use an ad blocker. I really don't mind ads anyway so if they start showing up it won't bother me.
