There you go again BOP, overstating the case:

"Besides any moron can see it's an ad, and should be able to discover that it's in all messages."

Apparently not all the morons can see it. :)

"bashing" is TOU violation?

So no 'bashers' are allowed here? Is that what you are trying to say? I doubt very much that matt wants to get rid of all bashers, no matter what they bash. He needs to set an example or else people will think this is just hype-ville.

"IMHO, these disclaimers are ALL poorly veiled attempts to bash IHUB and as such should be a TOU viloation subjecting them to suspenscion and/or banned from posting"

iHub bashers.......

>>>IMHO, these disclaimers are ALL poorly veiled attempts to bash IHUB and as such should be a TOU viloation subjecting them to suspenscion and/or banned from posting.<<< - Bird of Prey

I agree. There is no reason I can think of why anybody would put a disclaimer at the bottom of their post bashing iHub's attempt at becoming a viable company, other than to keep it from doing so. Those disclaimers are clearly intended to harm the enterprise. Their reasons for intentionally trying to harm iHub leaves me scratching my head since iHub isn't a publicly traded company.

We all enjoy the right to freedom of speech, and I think that Matt has done more than any message board manager I've seen to preserve that right for the participants. You iHub bashers have the right to swing your arms, but that right ends where Matt's nose begins. I feel that Matt has a prefect right to revoke the posting privileges of poster's who's obvious goal it is to destroy this forum, and I hope that he does.

Matt, I think that you've been a real trooper putting up with the abuse of these bashers, but I think that there's a limit to how much of it you have to take. You have as much right to run this forum like a for-profit business as the next guy, and I'd like to see you start doing so.

>>What do you think matt?

I think some people need one (or more) of the following:

1) A life
2) An understanding of what makes a website available to be used for free
3) An understanding that nobody is being forced to post here
