    Thread Ads

    If we have to deal with the thread ads, can't someone at least change them every month or so? Looking at the same thread at the top of each forum for so long...I believe it is giving me relationship problems.

    So for the sake of my nookie, please?

    So many comments that I could make in response to your post, but someone has to be politically correct.....


    I thought the thread ads were for only a month. I'm following up to see how long the Queue ad is suppose to remain.

    Brad!

    I was joking man. Perhaps I should have put it in [joke][/joke] tags.

    But the request was not a joke. Just the reason for it. Thanks.

    If the 'post date' is correct on them, then they've been up since June 3rd.

    I've been talking with the sales people that do the ads. As long as the ad is working, it will most likely remain. I suggested something new to at least spice things up a bit.

    At the same time, I've continued to request that they limit the ads to only one at a time and that they keep anything the post obvious as to the fact that it is an ad. There has been agreement with both of these to this point in time.

    Thanks for checking into it, Brad. I guess if it was making me money, I'd leave it there too.
