I doubt Tom is making much if any money off Adverts, it pays the forum costs.
I could be wrong but when I was running a Suzuki Motorcycle forum, in a years time the revenue from the popup adverts put about $200 in my pocket after all fees were paid to the site hosts and a web designer to keep the forum safe and up to date. WOW, I made $200 a year and paid $25 in taxes on it.
