[gamin]

Can someone please explain why we now have POLITICAL ADS top and bottom on this forum page. Kay Hagen specifically. Enough is enough. I am tired of this constant crap all over media constantly. I am very disappointed in pelican. Put them on the parf page!

I'm surprised I haven't seen that one yet. In my "Forum Spam" thread, I added one more comment about how imo it REALLY does reflect poorly upon Pelicanparts. I don't know if Wayne will see my post though....

I doubt that Pelican has control over the ad content. The ad services doesn't differentiate between the various forums. Its serving you ads based on cookies on your computer.

I went shopping for water filters online. I was getting Culligan ads for a week.

I always get ads for Merrell shoes, aircraft brokers and aviation training.

LOL, maybe you can ask for your subscription money back

Serial, running a series of forums like this ain't cheap. Pelican has to cover that cost somehow. They could either raise prices on the products they sell (not kool) or they can turn us into product.
That's what I would do ........
PS he doesn't control which adds pos up on your puter. That depends on your cookies.

I "wiped my PC clean...back to factory defaults" when I thought I had a virus or something. Haven't been to any sites, etc. that would display "gross as hell" toe fungus ads or "Cheating women over 40" crap....I do see that "some of the ads are based upon location or thread content, but most have me going WTF?

I have trouble believing that Wayne wants "some of this crap" associated with his business, but that's just my .02. He probably doesn't want a LOT of OT/PARF associated with his business either
