What methods would you not do to monetize your forum?

[Cpvr]

There are some monetization methods that forum owners use that are overboard, especially stuffing their forums with a ton of advertisements, but what are some of things that you wouldn’t do to monetize your forum?

I wouldn't use AdSense. The old days allowed you more control of where ads displayed, now they're all over the place. I use it blogs but to me that's a little different. I feel like they'd be more of a bother to members on a forum versus a blog.

How about you?
