So is it just me, or are there suddenly a lot more ads here? I understand they need to make money to run the site, but having weight loss banners scrolled everywhere along with the text links (highlighted words linking to ads) is disappointing.

I guess I thought of this as a "grass-roots" style website, and to see it head this way sours that image.

Thoughts? Comments? Smart Remarks?



(I guess you could consider weight loss as a performance upgrade....)

Here's a comment - buy a Gold Membership - a number of the ads are suppressed.

Actually, I was a Gold member, but I'm glad you pointed that out as it looks like it expired..... Thanks

Members and Gold Members see much less, if anything near, to what guests see. And S2000 Talk is the wrong forum for this thread - moving now.

I'm a "guest" at many, many other websites and forums. As a "guest", I have absolutely NO RIGHT to complain. If I feel "disappointed" at the way the site is presented, I can simply stop going there. Funny thing about "freebies", you get what you get. Another way of looking at it: If I'm a guest on a site and I get free information and enjoyment out of it and I have to put up with however the owners of those sites may present them (including popups, ads, etc.), it's a small price to pay to get the information and enjoyment that I DIDN'T pay for.
