There's always add revenue, on "free" hosting server as ProBoard- it goes directly to ProBoard if to create new (paid) forum, adds would (should) cover the cost of server...  Is that for real? Bummer. Other than the Muf banner I've never seen anything else - not even any blank spots. All I run is ABP / Ghostery / and Little Snitch.

Here's one even funny, using mobile browsing on desktop setting  Still, unsure as how to proceed or how to be sure, that all parties would be satisfied...

Here's all I get. I've developed such tunnel-vision towards ignoring ads that I had to take a look, I guess I do have this grey ProBoards banner that is always there.

alvychippy Stick with plan 1 for now - at some point Jonathan will pop up or Proboards will react. Can't expect it to be resolved too quickly!

I've messaged back and forth with jalvis a few times; I think they're reticent to just hand reins over to some rando that messaged them on the internet and wanted to have time to reach out to the other admins; I can't say I blame them, but it is delaying things a bit. I'll continue to reach out and ping them; I don't want to be so overbearing that I make them annoyed and just block me, and I don't want them to just leave it; so I'm trying to find a happy medium. It's not something I usually do (have patience), so it's slow going. I get the impression they're busy, and so I continue to be hopeful and believe they aren't blowing me/the forum off, it's just that they have so much time to commit, and this doesn't get the priority button (yet).

Can't they at least block posts from unregistered users?.. it would be a start.
Does it take long to block a user?.. delete spam posts?.. etc
