Excessive ads

I see triple the ads on this site and the text at the bottom is hidden because it's the same color as the background

Is it normal?

The text being hidden at the bottom is "normal" in the sense that you can change the colours of the text there with the tools PB provides. You're not, however, supposed to do that as per the TOS.

From what I can tell, this forum is running a second set of ads. This isn't necessarily bad — ProBoards allows you to run your own campaigns as long as a) you pay for ad free, and b) have a custom domain. Since today is the 1st of the month, the most likely issue is that their ad free expired at midnight UTC when the date changed over, and they simply have not reactivated their ad free since it's still relatively early (or because it's late, depending on where the admin lives).

vank - sorry the excessive ads were an issue for you. Most likely Kami is correct with the first of the month being an issue. I expect the admin will get it sorted.
