Anyoine else notice this is in the past few minutes?

It's not a glitch, and advertising is not a technical issue.

Thanks,

I don't like it.

It's a technical issue inasmuch as it hurts the usability of the site. Quite a bit, I might add.

There's a discussion going on about this subject in this thread. The dialogue about sponsored links starts at Post #63.
Just an FYI for those who wish to enter the discussion.......

Exactly how does it interfere with your ability to use the site? Just scroll past it to the next post.

Having to scroll past it to the next post is precisely how it interferes with my ability to use the site. You hit the nail on the head.

Annoying as heck. Breaks the continuity of the thread. I know, I know, its a piddling little issue but those are the ones that are the most annoying.

I would be curious to see your financial figures that indicate how FlyerTalk has or will ever turn a profit.

Thanks,

This new advertising does not bother me at all. I can scroll past the link or click the link. Some of the links are actually pretty interesting and useful.
