Ads Are leading to other websites don"t they.Well Believe Me or not I don"t want to leak SMW Central do you.Some Ads even lead to Viruses and Pop-Ups.I don't think we should add Ads to SMW central. OK. :]
We need ads to keep SMWC up. Also, they're not leaking anything, it's not like Ebay has some list of what websites have Ebay ads.
Theres adds on smwcentral?!?!?!
*Scrolls to bottom of page*
Oh....Nevermind.
Your layout has been removed.
I can tolerate banner ads as long as they're not a scroll-over, have sound, or lead to fake Antivirus software.
(Adding to above) or make the page lag alot.
Ads do matter. Clicking on them a few times a day can help the site make a bit of money. If you click too many ads at once, the site may die if the ad provider takes the ads off of the site.

If you don't want the ads, you're going to have to donate a lot. That's the reason they're there. They make money. And also, the ads aren't "leaking" the site to anyone, they're just random ads Google places on pages. You click 'em at your own risk.
I'm part of the Testers for Hire thread, so if you'd like something play tested, no matter what it is, PM me, and I'll give you honest feedback. Anything else is in my profile.

Annoying ads are the reason I stopped playing Line Rider. They're right there, linking to some scam or something, cycling to a different ad every 20 seconds, it's just too distracting!

I really hope SMWC doesn't suffer the fate of Line Rider.

But that's Google Adsense.
SMWCentral proberly did this for money.
It's really simple, you have to ask Google to make that thing, and everyone has to click on it.
The more clicks, the more money the site gets.

That post is wow.
You gotta remember that most of the people on this site are only like age 14 or something.
I for one would like to donate to the community, but I lack the power to do so >_>
However I think its time I take mcaffee to the test and see what all this google add nonsense site making money is.

Aren't there places where you can host sites for free? Why doesn't boom use one of those?

They give you crap URLs that are thirty feet long, and they usually have annoying sidebar ads and all that crap.

Because free hosting services are usually crap. If you want a good site (as opposed to a lame, unimportant, annoying ad* filled site that requires less than 1MB of space and with less than five visitors a month), you'd better start paying.

*) There's a difference between ads and annoying ads. Our ads are at the bottom of the page, has a black background to sort of fit the site theme and is (for the most part) non-graphical. Annoying ads are in plain sight, taking up a big part of the window, makes no attempt to "blend in" and are usually graphical or (god forbid) animated or (god forbid even more) have sound.

They have choosen right.
Free sites are nothing else like crap.
Like SmallHacker already said.
Believe my words, it's worth to pay of a site (I'm doing this too).

Here is what I think:

If you are not willing to donate all of your money, then you don't care enough about the ads and should STFU.
True ads are anoying sometimes.But THERE JUST SO ANOYING!XD
