    Yea... I posted the pretty much the same thing a day ago... funny thing is, its against VBFORUM policy to post advertisements in threads.... kinda two sided hey? I already reported it to Serge, I suggest everyone follow suit...

    Advertisements disguised as threads.... Hell... I'm surprised they haven't included automatic replies like



    I can imagine it happening... you post a question "How do I put a messagebox on my form?"

    and you get an email....

    We don't have an answer for you...but

    Hmm I've read more posts of people complaining about spam ads than I have actualy spam ads. And I thank the people that provide this site, and encourage them to make some sort of profit.

    I agree with Iamthewalrus15.


    By the way Pirate, the terms and conditions of forum usage also state:

    You will not use profanity in our forums, and will neither post with language or content that is obscene, sexually oriented, or sexually suggestive nor link to sites that contain such content.
    Didn't stop you from putting the word f**k in the thread title did it?!

    Point is, they can throw advertisements ANYWHERE but in the damn threads themselves... that's just wrong and completely annoying....

    Next thing you know you'll hit the REPLY button and an IFRAME will pop up telling you to check out some stupid magazine....
