I set these ads up last night. They display after the first post in each thread irregardless of the content of the thread. It's not inserted on a per-thread basis but is simply a site-wide setting.

The thumbs up icon was in reference to the advertising, but I understand that there may be some confusion with that. My apologies for any related misunderstanding. I've removed the thumbs up icon and replaced it with a standard post icon.

Long-time GCers know that GC has been largely advertising-free for approximately 95% of the site's existence (more than 10 years now). If I can sort out a way to continue operating GreekChat without advertising on the site, or with very minimal advertising, you can be assured that I will do so. I would definitely prefer to run GC without advertising, if possible.

The ads will very likely be changing over time as I test different methods and figure out what works best for the site.
