Rules in this forum are no different than the legions of others out there, and usually in place for the sake of the users. Failure to enforce a no-ads policy will lead to a downward spiral of spam and solicitations like you have never seen. Posters are simpletons who don't understand this, they are simply taking advantage of the good graces of their host.

I'm all for new businesses getting a good start, and clearly several have gotten support here, but having them posting "tell me what you want" and "we gots da stuff" all over a board that is supposed to be about LM topics other than commerce is a tremendous waste of time and bandwith.

Not to mention it undercuts Bruce. Running this forum can't be cheap and it's not unreasonable for him to be paid for ad space.

The fact that the new owner asked Bruce to contact them is completely backwards and wrong as well. If not, then I can erect a billboard on your property, advertise my business, and put a note on the post saying "hey, if you want me to pay for this space, call me."

Give me a break.
