It's put there by the forum software and it's not on your post, it's beside it.

You get paid roughly what you pay to use the forums.

Must be something to do with being an 'original' poster.

I thought it was always about the sixth post on the page that got the ad?

The forum software parses all the posts and if you post something that it doesn't think has been posted before/for a while, you get an "Original Poster".

You can collect them, like the old Tiger tokens from the Esso - and trade them in again things from the PH shop. I've got a couple of T-shirts and a beanie out of them!

What a coincidence as I viewed this topic. (assuming the adverts appear randomly)
