Non-paying members on SI do see ads ...

Jouer,

Hmmm..... I have to frank and admit that I didn't realize this.

And you're logic is VERY sound that there are more individuals watching what us schmucks are posting, than those who are actual members and avoid the ads.

Thanks for adjusting my headspace and timing.

Regards,

Ron

Agreed...just think of the tons of people that read for free. BTW, I believe that advertising space on SI is essentially sold out at this point.

Prior to my joining SI I would read various threads daily (this is one of them) and I had forgotten that there were ads. I still have the threads on my favorite places and because of your post I tried the link and viola, ads.

<<And I know for a fact there are more non-paying people just reading through the messages (and ads), not contributing much to the written stuff :-)>>

It has been my understanding that nonmembers cannot post messages or use private mail. I don't even think that they could pull up people's profiles. I don't know for sure as I have been a member ever since I found this place, years ago.

A nonmember could answer this...if they could post.
