You have to know by now since it's been said a number of times that we don't place those ads there. We contract with an advertising agency that's responsible for the ads. We don't get pre-approval rights. We're currently working on getting the ad removed from the INGO rotation. But, you know, thanks for acting like it was a deliberate slight against you.

By the way, you'll notice you didn't receive an infraction for yet again bypassing the language filter.

Didnt act like is was a deliberate "slight" against me. Just one more example of it being acceptable in one place & not in the post i made which created a poop storm

& i thank you, however i see the " language filter" being bypassed all the time without infractions being given. Do i point them out? NO. cause that would just cause probs for members.

It's not acceptable. I just said it wasn't. Maybe that's my fault for not being clear enough.

So, you're complaining that infractions aren't given out fairly, yet you refuse to hit the "report post" button? Your logic escapes me. You can't protect someone and then turn around and complain that they didn't get an infraction.

Uh ya im not going to " report someone"...
Really , you really find it that hard to understand.....
A simple warning would have let me know that bypassing the profanity filter was a no no, & it wouldnt of happened again.
Has it happened since the dreaded infraction? Uh NO
Im not the giant prick that im being made out to be.

As far as your PM asking me what my problem is .
When i feel i have been disrespected i will let you know wether in person or on the interweb. I was singled out by the mod for a bypassing the profanity filter, & instead of recieving a profesional PM letting me know that bypassing was a no no i was treated like a 4 yr old & got my lil hand smacked.
Now everytime i see the filter bypassed. It perturbs me.
You really cant understand that ?????????

Dude, that's what an infraction is...Did you get a vacation for it?

 

[EvilleDoug]

[esrice]

This.

Samot are you stirring the pot again?

 

[Bill of Rights]

Samot, as I told you at the time, infractions are vBulletin's built-in "warning PM". It sounds like you're still upset because the method of PMing you I used is not the one you would have preferred. You did not "get your lil hand smacked like a four year old", you got the same thing everyone else gets when I see them do that. If I don't see it, I can't very well address it, now can I?

As Scutter said, twe're trying to get that ad removed and will if and as soon as possible.

BTW, the last time I saw that ad(yesterday), the word in question was not part of it. I'm not sure when between then and now it was added. Be that as it may, the mods' job here is to keep the site "family-friendly". That job refers to the members. Monitoring the ads and removing those that are offensive is above my pay grade.

I do think it's noteworthy that of however many INGO members there were who saw that ad, the only complaint on it came from you.

Blessings,
Bill
