Changes to the site.

In the next few days, expect to see the banner ad at the bottom of the forums disappear.
I received an email this morning from the owners of the affiliation banner saying that my account had been put on hold as they were unhappy with a comment I made. (The comment has since been deleted, but basically it was me implying that pushing a product that was about to become obsolete was not the most honourable way to do business).
Long story short, they were willing to let us keep the affiliation if the comment was removed. I decided to remove the comment, but to sever all ties with the affiliated company as the amount of negative feedback they have generated and my own dealings with them just make me disinclined to continue putting sales their way.
I wish them all the best in the future, but from now on, this forum will be free of advertising.
