I just think it's a little weird Proboards putting something on the sites that actually serves to drive traffic away from the forum. Even weirder, that I have to pay so they don't drive my traffic away

It's kinda weird, I didn't even think it was considered an ad at all. To be completely honest, I think it's lame you gotta pay to remove it. It's god awful huge, and it's tucked right under quick reply. It's even worse if you disable quick reply like my forum, I gotta search for the reply button every time I make a post. It makes everything cluttered, even worse than v5 already is. Not to mention, Some of the stories I've seen so far are bound to offend people. I'm offended and feel stupid just from reading some of the headlines, it's EXTREMELY pointless garbage. I'm starting to wonder why proboards just didn't add talking ads or something, if you want to annoy us might as well go all the way. Just my opinion. Basically it's worse then an ad. It follows you around as you surf the web and collects information on you. After awhile it tailors the so called stories to something it thinks you like.. Click one one and get ads for things it hopes you buy... The Ad Industry is the most abusive and Intrusive of all things. They do not take 'NO!" for an answer..

so, the "stories from around the web" goes away if you are ad free? You can turn it off if you have Ad-Free, it's a setting. Oh Mabel...Hep Me ...Hep Me..LOL where's that setting? Funny thing is, the ads in the "stories from around the web".. are NOT showing for me.. My wife...she is seeing them??

My wife...she is seeing them?? I believe it's in the ad-free area of the ACP, I can't seem to see it any more on my BetaZone forum but I believe it's under the Upgrades tab.
