    Yup, you're entirely right. I remember a while ago someone getting in some sort of trouble talking about AdSense and how clicking the AdSense ads would pay the publisher.

    Sure - You could report to Google or you could send a note to GREG on the forums. It is obvious he listens to his guests and a quick e-mail telling him that asking people to click is a violation of google TOS. Will help him learn while also bettering the google system. If he does not edit or delete the post. Then take the time to inform Google.

    As I say with all people. Even tho we here at DP have all read the TOS we are human and bound to eventaully make mistakes. Having people HELP us fix those errors is much better than being banned for an innocent mistake.

    A mistake is a mistake. There is no such thing as innocent mistake. Google didn't hide their TOS, they even ask you read it. Not reading the TOS is the biggest mistake

    Think about it for a second? Have you ever clicked on an ad here on DP? Probably right? His comment about clicking on ads that you are genuinely interested on is NOT a bad thing if in fact you are genuinely interested in it.

    DP is a "revenue sharing forum", that means that DP will share revenues of ads clicked right? The fact that just below the top right banner on this page has "This is an ad revenue sharing forum" on it MAY be interpretted by some, specially the uninformed, as encouraging people to click on banners. Although that is NOT the intent, some will innocently or purposely click them, WHILE others will click on them because they are genuinely interested in them.

    I do not endorse the solicitation of ad clicking or click fraud, its just plain wrong, but if someone is genuinely interested on ad, for god sake click on it.

    You may want to tell the guy on the forum to perhaps be a little more cautious in terms of language being used and perhaps as him to reword his post.

    :)
