While a degree of frustration over the disruptive ads and malware-implanting rogue ads is understandable, and is acceptable to share here as legitimate feedback, Admin and Tech have been working to address these issues as best they can with the resources they have. Let's keep offering feedback, and refrain from posting opinions as unsupported accusations or fact.

Thank you,

Thank you guys.

Look. We understand the frustrations that are being expressed about the ads. It would help if you better understood who you are talking to when you express them.

I'm the Community Manager for FT. I am not a policy maker, nor am I a technician. Those people do not come here. I do. IBjoel, my assistant, does. Volunteer moderators like JDiver and cblaisd do.

We all work to ensure that reported bugs are sent up the chain to the people who can actually fix them.

We also work to pass along the community's feelings and suggestions about ads and features, to the people who make those decisions.

All in all, I think we do a pretty good job of striking a balance between business needs and community needs. At no time do either of those things completely eclipse the other. At any given time, both are being worked on internally.

Please be patient and please be polite, and remember that the people upon whom you depend to relay your concerns to the people who can alleviate them are the same ones you have the ability to be polite to, or nasty to.

Thank you,

Paul
