Adds for non forum vendors

[Plantgirl]

Why am I seeing ads for vendors who are not authorized vendors on a few posts? (one is Blusmoke) I thought maybe it was a troll for this company but then I noticed it on another members post. They are banner ads it looks like.

Feel free to hit Report (

) on one of these users' posts if you think they are suspicious.

Also, if you are not logged in you will see ads for non-forum vendors like Blu smoke. Its a google ad, I think.

That makes sense but I am logged on and still see it.

Then, I think TimTam has it correct, report the posts.

I am logged in as well, there is an "Intellicig-usa.com" ad right below the post. I do not see a report button next to the ad. It's not part of the users post either, so there would be no point in reporting his post. Intellicig is a forum supplier, I just checked. I guess that would make the ad legitimate.

I don't mind the ads so much, but why am I still getting ads when I am logged in? This has not happened the first few feeks I have been part of this forum.

You're not supposed to get these logged in? I too have seen blu ads between the posts. I don't see one right now, but I have seen them.

There is no reason to report these. The ads are supposed to be there. It's part of how the site gets revenue.
