    The Ad's inside of members posts

    I for one think the board should make it impossible to put advertisements inside the post area. They make it a pain to read others posts.

    I suspect you'll find it is a conscious choice by the site owner to allow that - the ads are from googleads.

    That said, choice of browser and judicious choice of browser add-ons and settings can block most adverts without significant impact on content you want to read.

    It might be frowned upon if I was to give specific hints, but do some homework .....
    Right 98% of the time, and don't care about the other 3%.

    If I seem grumpy or unhelpful in reply to you, or tell you you need to demonstrate more effort before you can expect help, it is likely you deserve it. Suck it up, Buttercup, and read this, this, and this before posting again.

    I feel similar as well. I just think that the comments field should at least be commercial-free. The ads makes it somehow less personal. I for once think that our forum sites are extension of our thoughts.

    Somebody else is paying the bill for your thoughts.
