Moderator/Admin PLEASE do something...
...about all of the advertisements in here. There are more vendor ads to navigate thru just to find the actual community posts. It's very frustrating! I know that it's been discussed before but it needs to change. Heck I may be a vendor on here some day and would prefer to be in a vendor forum. I honestly just ignore their posts 95% of the time because I am annoyed by them all.

I feel your frusterstion half-way on this. I think the Vendor posts are good for pushing promotional items and sales, but multiple posts with the same Thread Subject saying exactly the same thing about the same things on the same day is annoyingly redundant and clogs up the forum.
But, they are Vendors, and they are paying for their membership.

Yea if you hit the C5 general, C5Z06, C5 Parts and C5Tech & Pers you will see the same adds in every community. I support vendors but if I am looking for something I will go to parts of vendor section. IBFTL

I also agree, its not like it was 10 years ago... But then we are dealing with Old Junk Z06s and they are in need of parts just to keep them from the junk pile...
Move the adds to the classified section and bring back the community. Maybe we'll buy something then.

Ahem, cough, cough...there is a C5 Vendor For Sale section...
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-for-sale-165/
And since they pay, they can play and post where ever they want.
I tried once...once to push all the ad threads down from the first page and get the community threads all on the first page, but it was futile and nobody caught on.
I don't frequent the C5Z section that much as I did before the onslaught of ad threads.

the part I find funny is you were warned in the past about posting commercial threads for yourself
