I'd urge you to do some similar research on your site to see if the same's true.

Putting the adsense after the first post would just require a template change.

I'd think that your research would be very interesting for so much people here, I would be glad to hear more about what you tried and what you think is more successfull. Do you also put adsense for registered users on showthread? How do your link units work out? I was f.e. never sure, if my link units hurt my forum more than they earn money.

Installed.
