At Home Is TechIMO liked by Everybody?

This question came to my mind a few days ago. It came to me because I was talking to a friend of another forum that I used to hang around before I knew TechIMO. Well that forum was pretty slow, we both thought so and after I left we didnt talk until a few days ago. I asked him if he had found a new forum, he said yes. I told him about TechIMO and how sweet it is and sent him the site. I thought he would like it just like I did the first time I entered. On the contrary what I thought he didnt like it. He said the site was full of ads and it wasnt as 'great' as the other forums he had known. I couldnt believe what he was telling me since of all the forums I have known so is TechIMO the best one. I had not really noticed the ads and I dont care about them either (besides you gotta love an ad blocker) but I was just thinking if many people get this reaction of TechIMO when they first started to know it. I didnt, did you? For me it was love at first sight Just got worried that there are people that dont like this site. I dont understand that.

I think you got a nice ad-blocker Shawn, since I am in my dads computer without one and I see a bunch of ads like Pair.com, ResellerRatings, Newegg.com, etc. I dont care about them but maybe there are people that do. Agree totally with you Bingo.

Some people don't understand how great this site is. To them it means more that you are allowed to swear and curse and discuss the kind of stuff that is not allowed here, than it does to have the high level of knowledge, maturity (mostly) and helpful spirit that we know here on these forums.

The way I see it, people who don't instantly like TechIMO are loooosers.

I spend more time here than my own forum. Great people, a good laugh, a few M&Ms, and best of all you can jump into the tech forums and learn some really cool stuff, or help someone out with somthing you may know (cough) hey, it could happen

I don't notice any ads, and love checking out the new mobos that flash up top (and drooling on my keyboard)

Ads?? I guess Opera is blocking the ads at home and at work I have an ad blocker installed for IE.

I love this site, it's great.
