So Now We Get Ads in the Threads???

Is the New Zealand Ad thread that is/was appearing on our screens a 'NEW FEATURE' of Bike Forums.net a little side revenue booster.

I clicked on it, and it didn't come up on the 'Thread List' the next time I logged on. According to the fine print at the bottom of the Ad, it was the result of a service to which the Forum has subscribed.

Anybody else notice this?

Thought it might be too, but down in the corner, in very fine print, it mentioned about being a service subscribed to by Bike Forums. Forgot to "copy" that verbiage - maybe someone else will.
