Why am I still seeing ads after making my asfn donation?

So there are a bunch of threads including a sticky on this. Basically there is a problem between paypal and the site owners where I have to manually update donators to contributor status.

But you donation says expires July 11, 2011. Did you renew and just not get logged?

I bumped you back up to contributor in the meantime until this gets resolved.

Yes. I renewed about 5 days ago. Saturday , I believe.

If anyone else is experiencing a similar problem, let me know or add to this thread.

Thanks.

It's only been a week for me but I wouldn't mind seeing an end to these ads.

jf-08. I have had this same issue on my forums. You won't see them in the logs as paypal doesn't relay back to the site telling it that the payment went through. So vb doesn't log them in. You may want to tell the owners to get a different paypal account. It was the only way it worked for me.

All of a sudden, I am getting Google ads poping up on every thread. Any help would be appreciated.

Same here.

OK, I know Keebali has had some tech issues lately. The top logo was gone for awhile (looks like it is back now).

I've been testing this under different profiles and they have been having a problem where they can't serve ads at all. They were probably just tweaking it. Keebali tech team is aware of this.

If you see it happen over the next couple of days can you tell me the thread and/or take a screenshot?

Yes, I can duplicate this with my test account.

Apologies for the nonsense. Site owners have been notified, but since they are in Israel, unlikely anything will happen before Sunday due to time zone.

If they fix it I will ask them for a subscription extension for paid contributors.

Hey all, I just heard from Keebali.

Said this is fixed. Can contributors let me know if the ads are gone or not?
