God! It's so unacceptable for there to be car advertisements on a car website! How DARE internet brands try and maintain a free website for us all by advertising on it!

I like to call it an allergic reaction to blinding stupidity. Sarcasm will do in a pinch though.

Since this thread was started, I've been looking for it and haven't seen it.

Open the file C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\hosts and add the line 0.0.0.0 rx8club.us.intellitxt.com (thanks rOtor)

Can't open \hosts ??

Do I just add the line in the \etc folder?

Me personally, don't care either way.Yes it is annoying to have another sports car ad on this site but I like the free nature of RX8club.

Paying would be a nessary evil but I do like free.

What are they supposed to advertise? It would honestly be pointless to advertise the 8 here. So either you advertise competitors or an alternative type of vehicle. Based on what they know about this forum, there is probably a significantly higher chance of people being interested in sports cars or cars that have a nice sporty look to them. So basically you're telling them to advertise cars that have a lower chance of being of our interest on a statistical basis.

Do you propose they advertise the Ford Flex? I'm sure that would really improve sales since that's the kind of car most of us would never want.

Like I said, as soon as you send IB more money than nissan did for your own advertisement, I have no doubt they'd be willing to show yours instead. It's a business. They're going to do what works best for the company.
