    To the person who clicked the ads about 600 times. Thank you very much, it's been a credit to my adsense account. Post here if you've done so, I wish to thank you and give you a reward.

    I don't think he can tell exact figures, we just had a sweet spike in revenue generated over the past week or two. It's going to help us out when this contest comes around in case we have to increase the bandwidth.

    Yeah would be nice if they came forward, we have no idea who did it, Raven's not able to get that info, we just know the cash started piling up in the account.

    Your welcome Raven. :D Proud to be of service. I knew that spamming open a bunch of tabs would work, but it was a bitch to close.

    Wow. Well done LINKed! :D

    ...My ads say "You do not have permission to view this page." Why is that?

    The ads have disappeared from my screen...

    I used to click all of them about once whenever I came to the site, but never 600 times! Way to go Link!

    Mm yes, way to go Link. Now that I know who did it. This thread was a ruse to find out who exactly did it. Thanks to you, I lost my Google Adsense account along with nearly $70 in ad revenue I would have gotten within a few weeks. They disabled my account because "it became apparent" that we were artifically driving up clicks. Even after I told you and everyone else not to click more than a few times, you still did and it resulted in this loss. I've reapplied for adsense, and applied for Yahoo's ad network. Just be glad I'm not banning you Link, because when I saw your post I was about an inch from doing so.

    Sneaky Raven, but smart. I'm a little ashamed to say I only clicked the ads like 3 times in the total time they've been up.

    What Raven means is be glad you're not a newbie and/or a dipshit.

    Raven, I am truly sorry. Honestly, I must have missed the post where you said to only click a few times, because I have no memory of it...

    Again, I am sorry for the loss of your account...

    That was a good trick, Raven.

    Well, at least now we know better. Note to self, don’t click the ad too much.
    Let’s hope that there are no more incidents like this.
