HeavyGunner Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 since the last website update I've noticed that there are constantly weird ads popping up in the forums. Is BMT getting hacked or just allowing some advertisement? 1 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

j hancock Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Nothing pops up for me. There is a banner ad that displays at the bottom of the pages. 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't do the blog thing anyway,just ramble on aimlessly on the BMT Forum! Al 3 Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!

j hancock Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Yes, I saw that. It is a blog entry. Anyone can do it. You can enter the Blogs using the top toolbar. As new content, it will show in unread content. I am OK with folks posting crap in the blogs because I ignore it. I get upset if spam is put into the truck content sections. There was some spam in the antique truck section the other day so I hit the "Report" button and let the moderators deal with. Poof! It was gone. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.
