Do you think sinister.ly will ever run ads? I ask this because I know that other major forums - such as mpgh- run ads
Oni could but, would be annoying unless making it for non donators.

Unless you are upgraded then there is a small banner type ad - but it is not annoying at all. In fact, i barely notice it. I think @Oni has done a great job with this forum keeping the balance between practicality and aesthetics.

We do run ads. Upgraded members don't see them (except prior to logging in), as others have said.
Costs/information are below:
