Advertising in the forums

Post by nhaack »

*not 100% serious mode on*

Hi there, I just stumbled over a banner at the end of the page for a drupal hoster. I know we need the ads, if it's interesting stuff, i occasionally click them and see what they offer, however... an add for drupal... hello... ;)

Is there no possibility to filter the ads shown? I mean, I have no problem with that or Drupal  ;D and a lot of players are good for the market... and those who use Drupal probably just haven't tested CMSms yet. But probably things like these can convince users to step over to the dark side... we need to help them by stopping such banners

It's a google adsense thing, and I think each one has to be explicitly excluded.... we've got a bunch of exclusions in there now, but I'm sure a few competitor ads slip through from time to time

*serious hat at jaunty angle*

I tried Drupal before finding CMSMS (just because it's available in the scripts section on my hosting account). It was too tricky for me (a non-programming amateur!).

Since I found this system it's the only one I keep coming back to.

Maybe next year my internet exploits will make some money and I can donate  ;D ;) :D
