Anyways, new real ad just hit the site. I thought for a second this was another fake ad like @Data_Silver said. Guess that's the reason why the fake April Fool's ad couldn't be placed under the popular new section.

I was going to post the same, I think I've already seen it yesterday and thought "April Fool's banners were not being displayed this year...". Turns out the joke advertising was an actual ad...

Whatever happened to the fake banner ads? I swear during the real event they used to be at the very bottom of the main site page, under Recently Added, but now I don't see it? Were they moved somewhere else or what?

I still don't see anything, could someone send a link to the actual site the ad is linking to? I'm curious if it's that the site has PR blocked.

That's because these errors still persist:
I can't see the ad in the main page when I open it from my bookmark, but when I click the "home" button from any other page it shows up under the "self-published" area
one other odd thing I noticed is that when you refresh the main page, the ad disappears

I don't know, this year I haven't seen any, only the real "you can post your ad here!" with Dex and Nami. Only regular sized ones, and the gif didn't work.

It didn't appear even with the option "copy link" from the image itself? It was the link to Amazon with the ending changed so to know (potential) customers were sent from here. Btw, it's actually not bad clicking on ads, just remember that every click makes someone lose money.

I literally don't see anything in the ad section, completely empty. (I could see the fake ones fine though)

In that case you need to either disable uBlock (or whatever ad blocker you use) or enter the home page with a different browser, something like M. Edge.

Yes actually. I can't find the exact post, but someone asked that contributors and translators get exclusion to the ads and the staff agreed. That's probably it.

@Mangamoz, check this page.

Oh wow that was it! Weird, I have never been in that menu before. Must have activated to hidden on it's own?

I saw the secret saintess, how scandalous.
