I just noticed them today all the way at the bottom of the page. When did we get them? Do they make more money then the normal ones?
 
They all say the same thing: Buy Civ3 here.
 
I added them last night. It's just a text ad so shouldn't affect loading time. Unlike UGO ads, the Google ads pay per click, so feel free to click on the ad if you see something interesting. ;)

Not if you visit OT threads such as this one. ;)

it depends on what the page said.
like, if it said "I"m gay", teh ad would be about Gays. (you should see the ones at GCF and my place,)
yeah they do match the skin but i still don't like them

I apologize...I was wrong. I didn't think anyone would notice. :)
 
Oh, no TF! Don't tell us to click! We're supposed to click out of our own interest, not because we are asked to!

*runs off to get Google Adsense police* ;)

Nu-uh.

I watched it closely. It will do as you say, then I post, afterwhich all adverts read: Civ3 - even though the page is the same! (with one new on-topic post).

When using gmail all the adverts seem to be related to my PBEMs...

Might that be because all your e mails are PBEM emails? :mischief: I actually saw a google ad for poly once while reading one of my emails.:hmm:

Cool. Will do!!!!!!

Can we have a reward for being the one to click the most? :mischief:

One seems to link to some sort of survey-taking site, the second one seems to be an online shopping site, it's just vanilla though, says packaging is "sleeve" and you still have to pay $5.99 shipping. :confused:

I don't think he said he had a problem with them... He asked why and whether they made more money for the site...
