Let me be very clear.
A sponser never has had any influence on anything within ATS, or anything related to ATS policy.
Our current advertisers are through online ad networks, and as such, are rarely specifically buying space on ATS, and instead buying space on categories of sites within which ATS fits.
In September, we served nearly 2 terrabytes of bandwidth on 4 high-end dedicated servers that require daily monitoring and attention. A site of this size is a significant effort, and unfortunately, requires significant revenue to maintain.

If you are unhappy with the quality of recent discussion and posting (I know I am sometimes), the solution is simple. Put-in your best work and along with others, you will raise the bar. You can't rely on the mods and senior members to do it for you.

I have a problem with these, however, they are "Ads by Google" so I don't know if anything can be done about it.

Why would a site dedicated to denying ignorance advertise a buy your way through college service?

... but surely you should draw the line somewhere before advertising a way to cheat and lie your way through a college course?

I'm afraid I can't comment on ads, as I have all of them blocked. But perhaps if more members feel this way about certain ads, maybe there could be other advertising agents which fulfill the money requirement, and are not so... well, not so whatever other members think of them?
