I'm not trying to start a rag war , so please no one reply to this thread unless you are a moderator.

I find this ad offensive and if I understand correctly it's in direct conflict with site policy.

Yep, I've been waiting for this response. Do we chalk it up to collateral damage for the price of doing business or try to explain it away?:dontknow:

I am not sure how much control we have over Google Ads. I guess that is a question for Steve. I do believe that a few members are going to make it a test of our site policy unless we can make an "official" response.

Not just this ad, I've seen several quesitonable ads that NCWW might not want (one of the most frequent is a link to WoodForums.org). Sure would be nice to control this somehow.
