Hey everyone, Mr. K here -
For approximately the last month OTT has been operating without any ads at all as we migrate to a new ad partner (hurray!). While it would be awesome to continue this ad-free experience, we do have to reenable ads in order to make sure the cost to operate the site is accounted for (boooo!). Part of OTT's founding principles is to provide a dedicated and free place on the internet, just for Kubota owners and enthusiasts. As intrusive as ads are, they do help keep OTT free and open to all in accordance with that original mission.
Something new we are going to try is providing a 100% ad-free experience for any paid site supporter (become one here if not already). If you are a Premium, Lifetime or Vendor member, you will continue to not see any ads for the time being as we evaluate if this is viable for the long-term (hopefully). In fact, you may have been puzzled up to this point because you don't see any ads at all. If you are not a paid member, or don't want to be, that's fine - starting today you will see ads integrated back into your OTT viewing experience.
We are still fiddling with some of the ad placements and sizes and how they work so hang in there in the coming days and weeks as things get sorted out. As always, thank you all for choosing to spend time here on OTT and for helping one another out. Appreciated!
