Advertising in first and last post removed for ALL members

Hi all,

Just a quick note to let you know that the advertising in the first and last post of each thread has been disabled for ALL members.

We found the loading of the pages was slowed down considerably:

Load times with ads:

6.67secs
4.69secs
5.50secs
4.36secs
6.59secs
7.66secs

Load times without:

1.99secs
1.92secs
1.94secs
1.90secs
1.68secs
1.72secs

So now, only unregistered/not logged in members will see these ads.

Thanks for all your feedback and suggestions :)

Rowan
