If you want to see what happens to a web site when no one watches to keep the advertising away, go to www.farms.com , and click on the 'chat' link in the lower left. (It's not chat, it's forums...). Yuk. Notice the topics, notice the replies, old messages. And that used to be a healthy, busy farm forum, had as many messages as this did years ago. Now there aren't even many ads any more - just nothing. So, while it might look rude, the dude did say please, and in the long run it is certainly for the good of this web site. I have seen several web sites besides farms.com ruined by too much advertising, and then the real questions get bumped off to the bottom, and no one bothers to come anymore to help anybody, because it's all just ads, no discussion. There is free space provided for advertising, and clear notes not to advertise on the regular forums. I find putting ads in a discussion forum to be one of the most damaging things to a forum, very rude, and while I'm sure the original poster didn't mean anytthing & I'd be happy to discuss farm stuff with him, I would have posted the gentle reminder not to advertise if the other guy hadn't. --->Paul
