Yeah Clint and "the Nivi guy" (lol) are cool. Good products, backed up by a couple of decent people. Malcom could learn something from both of them.

There are some kids outside playing and Malcom could learn something from them.

I think it is a good idea to have a little revenue coming into the site......but the first time some member has a problem with their product and they don't go the extra mile to help them, then out they go!!!

Just my 2 cents.

i agree fill the box see if you can get rid of the out line that says advertising then give them a 5 second to 10 second hold on the screen otherwise its great. I know you work hard.

I know I'm new here to the site but I'll throw my two cents in anyway. I think it's a bad idea. I may be wrong but I think once you let in one advertiser you will have to let in others even if they are ones that you don't want. If you refuse then you may open up a can of worms. I like this site for the same reasons the other guys do: free speech - no agendas.

It's a private site and we only have to let in who we want, we not money whores, so we can tell them what we will put up for, besides if you knew our members better, you would know they will destroy a company just for fun before breakfast just to get their day started.

So it more getting someone brave enough to place an ad here and be able to take the feedback, a big thumbs up to Denny B for posting on the site to take in the good and bad reviews, takes someone doing a good job to do that.

I can refuse anyone I want... :nana

Anyone who wants to advertise on this site will know that they have no say in the content of the posts and if they try to screw any of the members it will be open season for the member to post the experience without any intervention by the moderators... :thumbsup
