I know the bit about having to have advertising to pay.... But I also agree this ad has got to go. It covers up messages in the post. A big reason I don't frequent other sites is because of these annoying ads in the forums. Buy your supplies from iboats. If they make a profit we can request them to keep the ads to a minimum.
Just click the X in the upper right hand corner of the ad and it will go away for the day. I agree it is a bit annoying, but I would rather close the ad than have to pay for the site. It is a fair trade for me.
This is exactly right. I have no problem dealing with the ad on my computer or even my iPad, but on my iPhone it's next to impossible to make go away and makes some threads impossible to read. Top & side banner adds I can deal with - pop-ups are BAD BAD BAD.
