That horrible horrible ad is the reason you're not payin 3.99 a month to surf this site... Banwidth for a site like this must be incredibly expensive. Its a lot better than the mosquito ad(remember that one?).

The "ads by google" link makes me think its a third party advertising program.
Ats probably has little say in what ads do run here as all their money is green... The advertisers will say what site they want their ads to run on and the ad service pays the site for clicks on that ad(I think). Why do you think its odd that a conspiracy book would be advertised on a conspiracy website?

In all actuality, ATS admins proved that this site runs about 1.9 tera of transfer a month from server to user.

I can bet you I can find a server cheap with that much space and a lot of server space also.

I am making a point to this because it isn't your tipical Google add.. Its big, huge and wants to be clicked. I actually thought it was going to be another part of the AS family... Opps I was wrong.

Anyway, I don't think they should promote garbage on this site, especially garbage that don't work.

Oh and that 3.99 I would gladly pay that a month to get rid of all these crappy adds. I think they all suck, so ya I would pay for it.
