How does this work?

What we have done is setup a system so the ad revenue can be shared between all active members of this site. This site displays advertisement when playing a clip. We use Google AdSense to automatically serve relevant ads for the content on the page. Google pays AdSense publishers on a per click basis as well as per impression. If a user has an AdSense account, they have the ability to credit their account with the ads served on clips they uploaded.

Why are you doing this?

This site is nothing without the users. So I figure why not let the users make a little money on threads they participate in.

What are the restrictions?

Is this allowed by Google?

I have gone over the AdSense terms and conditions a few times (both the Overview and the legal version), and I'm not able to find anything to suggest that it's not allowed. But if you know (or believe) otherwise, I would like to hear from you.

How do I set it up?

You will need to go to the Edit Profile area of your user My Account. Within there, you will find an option to enter your AdSense client ID (this starts with pub- and is within the HTML Google generates for you in your account). You can optionally specify a Channel if you wish as well.

I'm worried about you having my AdSense Client ID.

The only info we need for it is info that is publicly available if you look at the source of any page that has your AdSense ads. If you are still worried about it then the best thing to do is not participate.
