To enable the network to run for all, without the requirement for user subscriptions, there is a necessity to raise revenue to cover the not-insubstantial cost of the servers and various licenses required to keep the site alive. We raise this revenue thanks to a number of kind and generous sponsors, without whom the site would have been closed down a number of years ago. These sponsors have paid for the right to advertise their services and products across the network and therefore have every right to be aggrieved if their competition advertise for free without censure. Advertising is available to all, and at extremely reasonable rates. Without these advertisers there would be no RLFANS.COM. I hope that you can therefore understand why we have had to take the actions to remove non-sponsor advertisements. And on that note I will lock this thread.

I'm suprised by that. I could understand bbc shows that have nothing or a tenuios (sp) link to RL but this particular post has lots of relevance to this board.

Free advertising?
