What if Regalis decided to add advertisement onto the website in order to pay for web hosting?
It isn't free you know.
While you do have a Point, The way the Adverts seem to be portrayed [ Showing the Thread Title etc. ] does seem pretty suspicious.

Rather than advertising any Product, It's asking the viewer to look for more " Search Terms " and such. Those kinds of Adverts usually involve Websites which tend to install unwanted software or contain any sort of privacy risk.

I suppose we will have to hear about this from Regalis, Really.

This. After releasing v0.7 the traffic on the site increased so much that I had to move to a more expensive hosting service (again).

The ads will look a bit weird for a day or two, because they are some sort "test ads" used by the ad network to determine how much and what kind of traffic a site is getting, and what kind of actual ads should be displayed on the site.

Anyway, if you find the ads too obtrusive, you can always use AdBlock.
