Does My Site meet adsense guidelines?

    I operate a forum website that focuses on "paid to click" programs. There is no actual paid to click on my forums, but the content is about paid to click.
    Do you know if this is against google's terms (I've had my adsense account for a long time on a lot of sites and do not wish to risk it over a silly forum).

    PM me for the URL if you'd like to see
    thanks
    -Steve

    I don't think that would be a problem as far as you don't tell the visitors to click your ads.

    Thanks both of you,
    I think I will e-mail google for good measure.

    I could have sworn I saw "paid-to-click" programs on the list of forbidden website topics, alongside alcohol, tobacco, gambling, pharmacy, adult, etc...

    It looks like the site got the OK from adsense :)

    Of course it looks OK. Nothing against their terms in your site.

    Yeah, I guess not.
    I was originally just a little worried about the PTC talk.
