Reading the recent thread "Members and Contributors"; I turned on my ad's for the forum, hoping to generate money for SMC. I even click on them. My question is does this help SMC. I see targeted ad's from websites I visit, that have nothing to do with any of the forums here at SMC. I visit a website looking for a new frying pan then later I come here and I see ad's for frying pans. How does this help SMC? Do they get any direct revenue from the site I visit?
non related question why do I see funny stuff in my post like 39%@ that I didn't write????
