No you will not be banned, as you will not see your own ads, if you think you need to click something usefull for you, do check it, else right click and found url if you have adsense preview tool install you can check it with that. Hope it helps.
Hope it will answer all your questions. https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/topic.py?topic=160
People probably think they are getting paid. But your just clicking DP a bigger check. I don't think they mind though... lol
No, because google will count it be invalid click which is no money. if you click you DP thread ads, Yes, you will get banned
DP's revenue sharing works at thread level. If you create this thread then you shouldn't click the ads while reading this thread or any post in this thread. For any other threads created by other people, you can safely click the ads (of course with genuine intention to find out more about the advertised product/service). More specifically, DP shares 50% of revenue with thread starters. 50% of all pageviews will show Shawn's adsense code, and another 50% of pageviews will show the thread starter's adsense code. If you don't create threads, you won't earn a cent. If you write many threads, you'll earn more.
Hmm.. That explains a bit. Thanks brandnewx. This revenue sharing thingy is kinda new to me. And I wonder how it is beneficial to DP.
Read the FAQ's people! http://forums.digitalpoint.com/faq.php?faq=revenue_sharing#faq_missing_adsense_id
Looks like Shawn added the revenue sharing on post level. When somebody views your post, your adsense code will be rotated 50/50 as well. But trust me. No body will view at post level. Search engines in particular will rank threads at the top. So 95% of SE traffic will land on threads not one particular post.
Yeah. I did. Not so much of a risk involved. I suggest everyone read the FAQ too. Its a lot informative!
don't click the ads in your own thread. but i think DP will not s how your own ads if you are Logged In. thanks.
