Saw an ad from HSUS on the forum this morning. Showed a puppy and was asking for donations to support the "cause". I know on paid forums admin can block certain unwanted ads. Is that within the realm of possibility with Proboards?

We can go ad free but you have to pay.

Ridge....look at it this way.....the HSUS is paying Proboards to advertise. So, we as hunters are using their funds to promote hunting by using pro boards. Kind of ironic don't ya think?

It's $6 a month to get rid of the ads.

I think it's far more than that Stroup, based on pageviews.

Wish they had a blocker for robo calls! My "land line" has a feature....well a few features that I use. One is a call block where if the caller has blocked his ID my phone company will not let the call thru. That has helped some, but these companies now put stuff like "Emergency Link" in for a ID. So, I can block some of them on a number by number basis...and I do when they call back using the same "call from" number. However, I can only block 12 numbers at a time. But that has cut way back on 'em. Plus the fact that during the day.....I don't even look at my land line. I don't care who is calling as anyone important knows my cell number. Well....unless it's the lottery from Nambu. Then I pick up right away with my bank routing # and account # for them to make the deposit into.  |

Have no idea what it was about tho.
