Remove addvert on forum

just a quick tip to remove the forum advert

Mozilla users: Adblock Plus 2.1.2 I have found that this does a good job removing adverts

Internet Explorer users:

Instructions

1  Start by going into Internet Explorer, and clicking "Tools." Select "Pop-up Blocker." Click "Turn On."

2 Adjust your block settings when you click on "Pop-up Blocker Settings." Determine the filter level you want: low, medium or high.

3 Set the type of notification you want when a banner ad pops up, such as a sound or an information bar that runs at the top of your page. If the Internet Explorer Pop-up Blocker doesn't sufficiently block banner ads to your satisfaction, try one of the other methods in the remaining steps.

4 Edit your host page in a similar way as when you block websites. The host page contains mapping of IP addresses. Run the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\(and so on).

5 Locate 127.0.0.1 local host. One the next line ad the next number in the series, 127.0.0.2, and add the name of the server with the banner ads. For example, 127.0.0.2 ad.doubleclick.net.

6 Click "Done" to block those banner ads for appearing again. This also blocks the server from tracking your movements.
       

        Find an easier way to block annoying banner ads by trying out one of the many security programs made especially for that purpose, including SecretMaker, AdsBlock and Ad Annihilator. You can try out Ad Annihilator free before buying a license. One advantage to purchasing a program is free updates that stay ahead of persistent advertisers.

I don't understand, why do you wan't us to get rid of them when they're on your website?  I thought you must have put them there for some reason like, you can put adds on your site and get profit when someone clicks on it or buys something from it off your site or something like that?
But anyway, thanks for the tip.

I thought the adds were there to help raise money to host the website?

Oh. I thought that the ads only gave you money when people clicked on them.

I see. The ads aren't yours, they're by the company who's hosting this website. Once you do get a full website without ads, you might need to put them in anyway, to generate revenue. Then you can use the revenue to buy prizes to attract people who play on your servers onto your site. Then you can generate more revenue  8)
