Did The Ad Clicks Go Away
Yeratel:
I've noticed that the ad clicks at the top and bottom of the Forums have gone away lately, except for the link to the jim-butcher.com store. Some of the ads were funny, and occasionally worth following, so I was just wondering if the site has given up on them as a source of revenue?

I think Google decided to stop letting this particular site carry them since we had an explicit encouragement to click on the ads.

But wasn't clicking on them a good thing?

Yes, but encouraging someone to click (without the intrinsic value of the ad causing the click) is potentially against Google policy.
The Dread Pharaoh Roberts:
Ah. That makes a little sense, I suppose.
