My views:
1. The ads in the treads are fine. (Good format.) If your not premeum then you have to live with it. It is not that bad.
2. Dave if I was you I would add some ads to the left side of the sceen in the blue area.
3. Dave good job on keeping the org around and fuctioning.
4. Please no pop-ups, god please just no pop-ups.

nope just super bored and have nothing to do....and if you share the Jack...then yup you can come on in
Just wondering... why does Dave have to explain him self to anyone but him self? Its his site, he pays for it he runs it he can do as he wishes. For all he cares he can shut the site down with a click of a button. I dont think Dave has to explain anything to anyone. If you dont like it either dont pay or dont post. Dont come in here bitching about it when your bitching wont get anything done.
my 2 cents. Flame away.
Let's get super drunk and play football.
By the way.
In the game of football, I like to be the QB.

If you actually read my post you would have already known that I’m all for Dave making a profit!
Good for him. He deserves it with all his hard work.
I was just asking those who know to clarify my questions.
(stop bitching or GTFO) <-- Really TELLING IT LIKE IT IS.
Dr. Paul, aren’t you Mr. big shot? Are you like the ‘bouncer’ of JBO?
I got some ‘Jack Daniels’ in my coat pocket, can I come in?
^^^^ BAHAHAHHAHAHAHA that last comment is freakin funny as hell....
and yea i am glad that dave is trying to make a profit and stuff but some stuff goes way to far and doing google adbot is one of them.... i think the useless blue part on the page would be much better to put a banner on instead of in EVERY SINGLE post.....
Ok, if you must?

Bandwidth is not cheap. Bandwidth for 30,000 people is beyond some people's comprehension I guess.
yea but the point is... that "adbot" is wasting bandwidth... from what i understand that you actually have to get people to click on a link in order for it to profit.... sorry to tell you but those links google puts up are worthless.... so no clicky on linky..... so no money in the bag so to speak....
the ad is not all that bad. At least its just text, instead of some stupid animation with bright colors asking you to punch the monkey to win money.
^hey i'll spank the monkey for money

I am utterly appalled by the conduct on this board. I came here expecting a haven for the free exchange of thoughts and ideas regarding our mutual interests in autos. I was even considering paying the $2.00 for the premium membership. But the conduct of Dr.Paul84, whose conduct is that of an ill tempered vagabond who enjoys urinating on children, has dissuaded me from doing so. FOR SHAME!!! I would expect this sort of conduct in a Dolph Lundgren or Lorenzo Llamas forum. But in a auto forum?!?! This is indeed a sad day for humanity. To think I would have gleefully clicked on all of the links in each post, time and time again, to generate cash for this once believes paradise. But now I weep bitterly for us all.
sucks for you....im gettin a newb of 1 day talk @!#$ lol...

you hate it so what. Deal with it Just like how we don't read all the post in a thread just do the same. Not posting because of that is just silly if you ask me. (Oh i am not driving on a highway because they raised my taxes). I hate taxes but we have to pay it, what do you think pays for our highways etc..
I do not agree. It is not the same as reading a topic and saying I do not want to read that. Any post you go in it is there.

Wow. I'm not going to go premium again just on the principle that you would add something as ridiculous as an AdBot to the forums.
My take on the premium issue is this:
Premium members should be given extra features on the website, not just a relief from COMPLETELY annoying and damn near unethical (see popups) advertisement. So now we (non-premies) have non-access to premium member forums (totally fine), a limited post count (once again, sucky, but fair is fair) and an omnipresent ad system to combat with if we don't pay up. Give me a break.
To those of you saying "you guys are weak", that's because you have to put up with it any time you're not logged in, a whole 10 seconds. Why don't you people get off your self-righteous premium pedestal and see that this ad SUCKS!
I so agree with you!!!!!!!

As long as people are paying tp post on here he should have to answer to them. If you want to take the it is my site I do what I want, then do not charge people to deal with the crap. We already have to deal with crapy mods, and a crapy owner, and now a crap ADBOT. I have been on many other forums as good as this one, if not better, and they do nto have that. Not in a post. This is the frist I have seen.
