the google ads are on the forum (and only the forum) for now; we may remove them completely but at least they provide some entertainment factor on the forum.

i dont think it makes sense to put the codyquotes on the forum, they would just be a bit annoying after a while seeing them over and over again.

Yeah, I did that, and I liked what I saw. But I'm not likely to be visiting those pages just to see those. No biggie. *shrug*

Not on mine and I currently have ads set to 100 in my profile ???

Depends how often the snippets get changed on the forum - perhaps we could have a few Cody Jokes added to the mix !

i left google ads on the forum - only because they are mildly interesting in relation to the topics (either usefully on topic or amusingly off topic), or else for charities.

and i thought people would get very sick of seeing the same cody quotes constantly on the forum.  so little money is made from the forum ads though, that i may just remove them completely.  opinions are welcome.

i just realized that i did not give proper credit to Allen, who wrote the back end for efficiently grabbing random quotes.. i feel horrible about this.. without him there would be no CodyQuoutes.

Thank you allen - i apologize for not properly recognizing his contribution to this earlier  :(
