Thread Advertisements
Upon logging into the site today, I find there is an ad at the top of every thread.
Sorry, I will no longer participate in these forums. There were plenty of ads everywhere else on this site, if the board owners feel the ads need to be a part of the threads, I'm out of here.

The forums provide a great community and a ton of great advice to a lot of users. Look at previous threads and you'll see I'm no big fan of advert either, but when it comes to these forums I think I'll deal with it. I don't pay a members fee, I don't have to click on them. I'm also not saying I didn't have the same kind of gut reaction to it either, but I tend to take it from the standpoint of, If I walked in today and saw the ads would I still join? The answer is yes, I would. So then why would I leave it now? |

If it wasn't for the ads, we wouldn't get this for free. And at least they are not pop ups or *shudder* pop unders

this is probably global decision of DevShed admins, not much we can do. Roger, please don't be so dramatic - it's not so bad and you know it. it's irritating, yes, but not more than the ordinary ads... it's only three lines. |

We will NEVER run pop ups or pop unders or ads that make noise. With that being said, ads pay the bills, and allow us to pay for bandwith so that we do not have to charge our members, another thing I never want to do. If that means you must leave, you will be missed. |

assuming those new ads are must-be, maybe we can find better place for them? if someone can come up with different location rather than as "post" in every thread, location that would be visible but also accepted by everyone, it would be for the best.

No, that placement is what they paid for and I will not breach the contract. |
