It used to cost Ben somewhere between $300 and $400 a month to run the master server, forums, provide a download link, etc. And that system was stressed almost to the limit. Those cost are one of the factors that lead him sell the rights to jagex. We want to offer a similar experience that you were used too and hopefully improve on it in some areas. We cant afford to pay out several hundred $$$ a month out of pocket each time. So there are ads.

Depending on your version of adblock, it deletes the space where the ad was, too. I think the image was put under the ad area to target adblock users.

While I think people should add an exception to their adblock for this site, another option could be to have a donator rank who get ads disabled (and possibly have a special badge or name colour or something).

That just means that you don't have adblock blocking ads -_-

For those who don't have an ad-block and ads are not displaying, what browser/extensions are you using?
To those who do have adblock but aren't seeing the intermediate banners, what adblock software are you using?

:blue: :green: Fun fact: If you use a high-privacy like FoolDNS, they will auto block the ads.
(Like me since the government blocked facebook,I have no choice but FoolDNS)
