So we all understand the Naziesk ( No soup for you) stance on the subject of politics here at APC.

SO I was surprised when I log on today and this is thrown straight in my face in the way of one of our great banner ads.




Kind of weird. Anyone wish to comment?

"Kind of weird. Anyone wish to comment?"

If you have a problem with how the site is run, please contact an admin. That would be HSLD or Freight Dog. I agree that it's a little weird to have pop ups that violate TOS...

Well if anyone has any experience with google ads they would know that you can't control every ad that comes across the board. You can however block specific ads that you don't want to show up, and in this case I'm sure the mods will do just that.

If you want to discuss politics then I'm sure you can find plenty of forums on-line where you spend your time. If you can not follow the rules established for APC then maybe you feel more comfortable at another aviation board. Your choice.

By understand I meant that. I believe it makes sense not to have it here. Although I was not always a fan of threads with political being closed I was convinced otherwise quite awhile ago and am a proponent of them being closed.

Please don't take my dry sense of Seinfeld humor to seriously.
