Publisher # can not come up when logged in?

    I had thought I had read where Shawn said that there is no way for our AS Publisher # to come up here on the forum if we are logged in.

    Is this true Shawn :confused:

    That is correct, stops us from clicking on our own ads and getting banned

    So when was this started?

    Because we were told in the past not to click on ads here, I would like to inquire on certain offers and have not in many cases :eek: :eek:

    You can click on the ads when your logged on as this will be Shawns/Digitalpoints pub ID. When you are not logged on then your ID is in rotation so you should not click on the ads. As far as I am aware it has been like this for a while, 4-5 months at least.

    Basically it is a safe guard measure, saves you having to check the source code to make sure its not your adsense id before you click on it.

    About time, I was asking Shawn to put up a red light or something when your pub ID came up, I guess he had a better solution than me :confused: :eek:

    Why were we not told of this???

    Shawn can be a mean guy when he wants to :eek: :mad:

    I look at the HTML source on posts I've made and I never see my AdSense Client ID.
    The system will never display your own AdSense Client ID to you (as long as you are logged in).
    This is to prevent people from unknowingly violating the Adsense terms and conditions (specifically the part about clicking your own ads).

    Above is cut and pasted from your link, Shawn is a good guy after all :confused: :eek: :cool:

    PS: Why does he hide stuff from me :confused:

    Maybe he thinks you like to play hide and seek?
