First of all when I joined several years ago, I didn't know Pelican owned this forum and I would venture to say most didn't when they joined and may still not know.

If this was the forum on Pelicans website, I might understand other companies being blocked, but this is not a forum on their website. It is completely separate

Even if it was, censorship is just plain wrong. On top of that, its no all websites that are blocked, just some.

Blocking another vendor from posting ads without being a sponsor is one thing. Blocking links in personal posts is another

And Tim, the ads are still there. You must have added an ad blocker
