Seriously though, do you have any idea how much hosting costs can be for a website? No matter what you may believe, the internet isn't free.
And there is enough advertising here already. Seriously, I don't care what this site costs to run, its visited by a ton of people. This site is a product and we are its customers. We can voice our opinion and leave if we want to. Having to see lame ads posted in the forums when there is enough stuff on this sides is just greed.
