GregLeon,
First, thanks for all the hard work you do for this site.
I wish I was able to contribute more to this site than I am able to. Unfortunately, since I am pretty new to this hobby and only collect a very specific subject matter, I don't have much to add. Wish I did, but I don't. I've probably posted only a half a dozen times. Wish I had more to add. Hopefully I will in the future. I'm sure there are plenty of others like me on here.
That being said, I do enjoy reading the site as well as the contributions of (most) of the members here. It's a very knowledgable group and, for the most part, a very friendly group.
Having followed this site for a year or so now, I've come to recognize a lot of great people here. There are a lot who love to share there information. There are a lot who enjoy helping others out. There is also just a lot of fun cameraderie to be enjoyed.
I've also come to recognize, however, that there are some individuals on here who seem to take themselves a little too seriously. Worse yet, there are some here with an apparent ego problem that think they are on a higher plateau than others (a true mark of insecurity). Unfortunately, there are times that some even go to the extreme in making or poking fun at others. If others don't agree, I suggest they re-read some of the contributions of late.
What does this have to do with the subject? Not much, other than I give you credit for putting up with the bad that goes along with the good. You should be compansated for it. Maybe it's just me letting some steam out reading some of the posts over the past couple of weeks. I guess if others can just say whatever the heck they want, why can't I...
Anyway, if my vote means anything, I vote in favor of your Banner advertising. If people don't like it, just don't click on it. What's the big deal?
Greg
