You need to modify template to get individual banners, If you add catid to module positions, it should be possible with existing module positions.

How and where would you do this? I also would like to have targeted ad links on specific forums/categories.

I tried kunena_msg_1_catid_9 under teh module position, but now nothing appears between post 1 and 2

Renaming field does not help -- they all will have the same id.. You need to take catid from variable $catid and then change your banner module position to "kunena_msg_1_catid_9" etc..

When you're viewing messages/thread: message.php line 449 (in default_ex):

Code:

<!-- Begin: Message Module Positions -->
<?php
if (JDocumentHTML::countModules("kunena_msg_$mmm_catid_$catid"))
{
?>
    <div class = "kunena_msg_<?php echo $mmm; ?>">
        <?php
	        $document	= &JFactory::getDocument();
	        $renderer	= $document->loadRenderer('modules');
	        $options	= array('style' => 'xhtml');
	        $position	= "kunena_msg_$mmm_catid_$catid";
	        echo $renderer->render($position, $options, null);
        ?>
    </div>
<?php
}
?>
<!-- Finish: Message Module Positions -->

Awesome. Looks like it is working. I did have to make a minor change. I posted the difference here for others to see as well. Thank you for your help. you are awesome.

if (JDocumentHTML::countModules('kunena_msg_'.$mmm.'_catid_'.$catid))
{
?>
<div class = "kunena_msg_<?php echo $mmm; ?>">
<?php
$document = &JFactory::getDocument();
$renderer = $document->loadRenderer('modules');
$options = array('style' => 'xhtml');
$position = 'kunena_msg_'.$mmm.'_catid_'.$catid;
echo $renderer->render($position, $options, null);
