Rudedog,

Paying member of SI don't see any banner or ad. Those who LURK without paying, they get to see post with Banners. So basically, we have the next page up faster. My friend who isn't a member says it delays him only one or 2 seconds more...

Click on the "Chart" option and you'll see ads for Datek, Ameritrade, etc....

I always the "exchange2000" address which forces one to login in; however, if one uses the "techstocks" address and does not login you will see ads.

BTW, I found another discussion forum on the internet. Its, ragingbull.com ...and its free.

It's still rough around the edges, but so was SI in 1995 when I first signed on. I actually have several login users on SI...but i can't remember my usernames. I only really started using SI in 1996 when it got interesting.

>I have heard others talk about banners on SI but I see none.

If you go to www.techstocks.com and don't log-in you'll see the banners.
