So if it bothers some of you people that Mike is making money off the board, realize that it is not you Mike is making money off of, it's the advertisers.
Making money off the board is fine, great even. Censorship, subjective deleting of threads on personal whims is not. It shows a total departure from the spirit in which this board was started. Eventually (from past experience) all boards are hot for a bit and then they wizzle out. Remember the red board, it was "the place" for a long time and then it died out. So few postings now that it's a joke. ICS same deal, just not as wizzled out, yet.
If the deleting of threads, censorship of any kind continues then mark my word this board will be tomorrow's industry joke.
I hate to see that happen.
