Default I LOVE THE TOTAL IGNORANCE OF THIS TOPIC BY THE ADMINS

Not even a single response by them trying to justify it. Hmmmm, maybe it's because they can't?


This may be the nail in the coffin for this site.

Default Huh?

Most of the moderators don't know the rationale of why the ads were added in the first place..so it is not our place to comment. I suggest you send an email to jteller@audiworld.com if you really want to know..

You need a hammer?

Default If they are going to keep (ad)ding the I think they should disclose AoA's involvement in

% of $'s spent maintaining site. I am admittedly coming from a position of using old data to assume that AoA supports this site with $, but I am somewhat sure they did and do.

Obviously I love this place, and I would probably pay my own cash to keep coming here but side ads and bottom ads and Adsense ads are too much. I think the powers that be are testing to see how many we can take.

Also, I notice time and time again that my AW page loads are waiting on Google's servers.
