Google adsHow do I get rid of them in my posts?

i fear there seems to be no way - but they are only in the last post of the thread.

I can see no adds in my posts or anywhere else on the board - except a small google toolbar over the site's footer.
Could it be possible that this depends on the browser you are using?
- I use Firefox, and everything works fine.
*Goes over to test...*

You should see ads at the top of the page when you're looking at one of the forums.
The purpose of those ads is to pay for the site; every time someone clicks on one of those a tiny sum of money is generated from the advertiser, and thats what allows myfreeforum to host discussion sites like this one. Doesn't run a big profit, and there have to be quite a lot of sites running to make it viable.

Tested the boards a few times, still see no adds... 
Maybe it's just that my browser blocks them... Use Firefox, people, use Firefox!

i USE firefox - but under the last post of a thread and over the profile and pm-buttons of the user are always 3 google ads.

Could you send me a screenshot of this, please?
I've tried it several times already, but I did get no adds or whatsoever...

okay - tell me how to make a screenshot...

Press the "drucken/print/P" (next to F12 on my machine) button on your keyboard; then open paint or a similar graphic program and select "paste".
The screen should then display as a photo. :smt001
Took me years to find out how this worked...
Thank you very much!

okay! it's done!

 Hmmm... Doesn't look that good...
However, that may change soon, for, should this board become popular (150 users is my long term goal for the moment), then I will buy it free from "myfreeforum" and port the database to another server to link it to a website I am working on. :smt001
For the moment, I am afraid you will have to live with the adds, unless you use the same FF version that I do. (I have a dozen plug-ins installed; maybe that's the reason why I see no adds. - My sig appears very big, but empty.)
