New sponsor method

I recognized the feature once today before it was disabled for supporters, online members, and staff. I'm glad it was disabled for those other than non-online visitors, guests, and visitors. I see this option of advertisement on other sites and like mentioned it does get a bit annoying at times. Regardless, the optional feature of it was a nice addition to the add-on. Whatever keeps the site running is whatever is required so it isn't a bother, I'm just glad I don't have to see it anymore.

Let me know if its otherwise. Also remember, it will take a few weeks for them to settle down and be optimized for us, so keep that in mind too.

The main revenue generating sponsor placements (currently top and bottom of page) as well as the occasional thread list (text/link) or showpost targeted spots (banner, not done one yet but they are offered to our sponsors) will remain as normal.
Of course, so will the donations. More donations = less invasive sponsor ads.

Not the case for me - I could still see them. Already disabled them myself though.

He says it's an additional way of paying for the server that works alongside other methods, so I'm going to say yes, since it's a very good source that will probably earn more money than these ads. I can't imagine a lot of people will leave them on.

Oh I understand now. Thanks guys! Yay, I can still donate some money. :3 Yeah I noticed those ads yesterday and I thought PC got attacked. And I wasn't the only one who seen these. I was about to blog about it. I am glad it is only set for visitors and guests. That would be a good choice. ^^

If it makes you feel better, I really don't mind seeing the ads at all

i saw a lot of them yesterday, when i was in the OT section. thank god i can disable them, wait thank Rukario? XD
 
This is a very good idea with the large amount of guests that visit the site.
I've heard of how high the server costs are so hopefully this income method will help out. I don't really mind these adverts.
I was thinking it could be a supporter "perk" to not view the adverts but that'll probably cause some anger with normal members.
