How is using advertising giving in. The staff are volunteers. The site is free. Do you know how much it costs to use the Vbulletin software and platform ? For a site with this much traffic it’s not cheap.

I definitely get that. I do wonder how PC was funded prior to Healthline taking over, though. All these years there were no ads.

I don't know if this helps anyone else but I changed my theme (scroll down and there's a drop box) to spring and there are no ads. With other options I had ads.

AHA! Maybe that's why I don't see ads - I have my theme set to Black Smart because it's easier on my eyes.

And I have the teal theme. Anyhow, just throwing that out there, as people sort through the variations.
Thanks for this!
