Yeah, but considering the ads are to help fund the board, it would be doing Jul a disservice.

There's no point to nuking it as the revenue is based on the time that the ad is appearing, not the amount of hits it gets.
Clicking or not clicking it makes no difference to how much money we get, in fact, letting it stay is probably better in the long run.

You haven't seen the revenue counter increase because Xkeeper hasn't updated it. It's a manual thing, and people are still paying for the ads.
e: though I admit, that same ad is getting kinda bothersome

 The counter hasn't moved because I haven't updated it.
You can see the exact earnings from an ad at any given moment by looking at it; Whatever it shows - 10 cents (or -1 if it's under 10 already) × 0.75 for 24 hours at that price.
The bar should actually be around 50 or so right now.

 | | | | | I noticed the ad briefly changed to "Are You Fat? Take this fun survey to find out!" (because apparently I can't just look down), and then back to Apocalypse Engine. I'm seeing that friggin' ad in my sleep now. With superpowers. And dice.

 I find it hilarious that it's still here, to be honest. I got over the "It's still here" being annoying thing loooong ago.

On one hand: Still having a willing-to-pay ad does give revenue, albeit not $20 friggin' dollars like it was before
On other hand: We're not seeing -any- new ads. Are the other people starting to lose interest in advertising on this site?

If nobody else wanted to be here the price would be $0. It's just that AE likes to pay more.

 | | | | | Y'know, this isn't the first time we've had annoyingly persistent ads:
Ah, memories.
(I thought I had a Save Creatures quest zoo edit, too, but I think that ad was actually Flash. Horror!)

Man, I don't care how awesome your site is, if you start running those I'm smacking the Adblock button like there's no tomorrow.
