Why are the Moderators allowing political ads?

Post by Galatians221jb1 »

Controversial political ads on a board that forbids political discussion? Also, I pay extra for ad free. This is doubly wrong.

Please allow me to clear up a misunderstanding.

The forums are a free service.

They do not see, nor honor, any subscriber status; They also do not see, nor honor, any feature that may exist on the main site for subscribers.

This isn’t a new behavior; The forums have never taken into account your subscription status.

As far as I understand the moderator’s wishes… This topic is in violation of the no “political posts” rule and I’ll be locking it and removing from public view all reply other than this one.
