Got it again MrT, same picture. Do you need the screen shot again?

C5 forum, £1000 disc thread
I think it's been cached by Google. Hopefully the cache will get refreshed and it will disappear. Not a lot else I can do right now. Let's give it a week and see if it goes.

Re: B9 RS4 TPMS _ changing to non-OEM alloys

Alternative to disabling the TPMS might be to use aftermarket TPMS... On my GTR, I have cloned the OEM TPMS IDs on to two sets of these http://web.alligator-sensit.com/index.php?main|53b16bb9120d7|14 It might be worth contacting Alligator to see if they have a solution for you. On the GTR, the cloni...

Re: Adverts

Hi Phil, Although I don't like the adverts, especially now they are more intrusive, I appreciate they are necessary to pay for the forum. The only real gripe I get is some of them are pornographic which is worrying when my daughter occasionally uses my phone. Thanks, Owain Basically this, apart fro...

Re: Adverts

Update on this... I've pulled the website traffic data and revenue data. It seems RS246 averages ~1,100 unique user visits per day (Fairly consistent over multiple years). The advert revenue has more than doubled since implementing the new ads. Result is that the current advert format is here to sta...

Sorry guys but I’m losing the will with all the ads.

I come on here most days...but gonna have to give it a miss for a bit.

PhilT - you do a great job and I’m not moaning as I know you are doing your best, but personally I’d rather pay a fee and lose the ad’s.
I'll look into it this week.

I'm not quite sure if I should put this, as PhilT said earlier adverts are way to pay the bills but do you guys not run an Adblocker on your internet browsers?
I run ad blockers too. Not an issue for me.

Re: Adverts

What about adding more products to the Shop to get some revenue? I know I sound like a stuck record, but surely this would help out, no? Looked at it before and for something like a mug, the cost of shipping makes the margins poor. For clothing, you need to bulk order all the stock in different siz...

Re: Adverts

I've tuned it as much as I can based on GDPR requirements. I'd like to continue with the ads for a while and then see if I try to put them back as they were and see what the revenue hit is.

Might look into paid membership to get rid of the ads but it wasn't simple the last time I researched it.
