    Right...something to think about, they sure the heck know when you click on your own ads. Let's take that a little bit further. I'll bet you anything they know when you click on ads on other sites. And if one of those sites is found to be violating TOS, I wonder if they turn an extra pair of eyes onto you?

    yeah me too. for such a small site with relatively static pages a $3 shared hosting will do.

    My sites consume 200GB/day and i got an unmetered dedicated server for only $499/month with 4GB RAM, etc etc.

    The site owner is so stupid he doesn't know how to spell "ban" :D

    For those of you who are clicking on purpose, take note that your account will probably banned as well.

    I reported a site once that was listed #1 in google for a term with 40,000 ovt and 62,800,000 results in google because they had an audio file that played that said "Please click our ads" the audio has since changed to say "Please click [some incentivized ad]'

    lame

    adsense checks every site, when the revenue of the adsense reachies about $80+, before giving out a check every site is properly analysized. and the result will be, that site will be banned!

    but then, the advertisers will not be refunded, so google earns anyways, and advertiser lose all the money! when the publishers will learn:rolleyes:

    blatant disregard for rules & 700$ hosting bill lie is a prime candidate for reporting

    well if they're dumb enough to encourage people to click on their ads maybe they're dumb enough to pay $700 for a website that's primarily text based which means they can get sufficient hosting with a provider like godaddy.com for $4 a month.

    but that doesn't make me mad enough to report, it's just stupid; it makes me think they're just ignorant, not scamming. what makes me REALLY mad is when people try to blatantly cheat by tricking others into clicking, like this website: http://aartinaked.blogspot.com/
    although the ads have been removed since i reported them =D

    i wouldn't take his statement at face value, but it's possible. since they can ban you for clicking on your own ads, they can trace your ip when you click on others ads and connect it to your own account. but i think it's a leap to say that they def do that.

    Unless his IP had clicked on a lot of different fraudulent ads from several different publishers, no. Google doesn't have time to mess around with that.

    Well $700 per month is just joking and people who clicks on ads should be know about this.

    I think he/she must banned sooner.

    $700 monthly :D :D, seem like they are running 200 CGI proxies on a dedicated box purchased from Rackspaces or exabytes. Never seen such a DAMN violation before :D
