Hi all,
Hi Administrators,
I couldn't access the forum for most of the day. When I finally did get back in, the Amazon banner has appeared above the Newest Posts column (it directs to amazon.com). Don't see any announcements relating to this. Is my computer playing up?
 
Yes. Site was down this morning. I, too, see a small Amazon barrier. And it directs to the US Amazon site.
 
I see it too..... don't mind if our Admin is earning from them but if not then how do I get rid of it??

The site crashed this morning but wasn't offline long as they were testing a couple of things and realised it had caused problems.

Admins don't own or make any money from the forum the site is owned by an American company who bought it from the original U.K owners and asked me to be the U.K admin, Angie (who most of you will have seen in the announcement forum) is our American admin.

If you go into your preferences there is an option to turn advertising off. :thumba:

Thanks Chippy. Done and dusted.
No real beef with Amazon, it just spoils the feel of the forum somehow. Makes it look commercial.
 
I turned my settings to allow advertising but couldn't see the Amazon banner but glad my earlier tip has done the trick. wink...
 
I currently have the amazon banner advert. I never turn adverts off as there not in the way of anything, they normally have something I recently bought or searched alot for or brewing equipment and occasionally audi (no idea on a reason for this one)so why its amazon for many is a bit weird.
