Default Re: Why is this on our site?

Maybe to better explain the reason.... The owner gets revenue by selling space to a ad subscription service. The site owner did not contract with the company that sells this piece of crap, it is just part of the ad subscription service. If you notice, when you do a google search and then come to this site, there is a good chance that there will be a banner displayed that has something to do with your previous search. It is target advertising. The owner of this site could not remove an individual ad if he wanted to. The only thing he could do would be to cancel the ad subscription service which would result in the closure of this site. If this site was actively managed and was more of a mainstream site where it was viable to seek specific advertisers that would be another thing. But, this is not a mustang forum where there are tons of vendors that are willing to pay for the opportunity to garner our interest. I hope this makes sense, and puts things in perspective.
