Forum Advertising Suggestions

I posted about this in another thread but it most likely got missed so I'm putting it here as this is the suggestion section.

So, right now the price for the header style graphic ad that we all see at the top of the forums is $100/per day.

We have no way to track clicks or impressions, or spit test our ads!

As this IS a marketing forum it seems a little hypocritical that these simple features weren't available in the past doesn't it?

Additionally advertisers are also unable to split test their image ads which is another very basic advertising principle.

I'd also like to see the weekly text ads returned, these are the ones that showed up embedded into the threads.

Here's a link to show you guys what the text ads looked like. Scroll to the bottom of the page to see.

Now I'm sad, out of all the archived threads available to me on archive.org I found one from Vanessa! God bless her soul, RIP V. = (

Please rate the thread if you feel this is an important feature to be available to advertisers.
Thanks!
