Here’s my take. It does bother me. I just don’t click on it. Since we’re all using the forum for free. Can’t complain when it free, no?

I'm on three other forums. None of the others do this crap. It's the same hawkers pushing their stuff over and over and over again. Just refreshes to the point you have to search for something posted by another owner among threads for wheels, intakes, headers and other *****. It gets old after four years.

I'm gone for a while. Maybe the moderators will wise up. But, I doubt it. They're OWNED!

Did you brought this up once in the past. Did they already gave their explanation?

Bruce,
I am with you.. short of me setting up forum that is ad and sponsor FREE... I dont understand why the sponsors feel its needed to SPAM the threads...
They should post in FOR SALE, then can chime in on a thread if it is in there wheelhouse.. but this whole issue of sponsors just logging in and spam posting adverts is out of control..

This forum has turned into more, the only reason to login, is to talk crap about the sponsors post.

I am searching for domains now.. will update you if I decided to build it...

Thank you. I’ve been told by the mods it’s because they, the aftermarket folks support the site. And, if they pull their ‘funding’ the site would fail.

just about them making money which is INSANE because they are a .org which means they are a nonprofit. With all the sponsored companies and the ads from chevy, amazon and others how is that an excuse.. lol.. Are they donating the profits?

Wish you would have just bumped your other thread asking for a proper explanation from the mods or ask for contact information for someone internal @ IB that the mod was referring to. Felt I made good points in the other thread but not going to repost.. Non-profit - haha!
