i don't understand
I see that there are not supposed to be any political references in this venue. Why do I see political ads on this site all the time. Sure looks like a double standard. As long as you pay it's ok, what a bunch of BS!!!!!!

He/she that has the ball & bat gets to choose how the game is played. Not really BS!

The political ads have nothing directly to do with this forum. They are generated just like the ads you see on Google or Facebook. You obviously look and read political stuff elsewhere so that's what you are targeted to see. When I looked up "best running shoes" most all I see are ads for running shoes. Your web surfing is being tracked by every site you visit so you get ads of "things you are looking for." I do not use an ad blocker and I have NEVER seen a political ad here. I see lots of golf cart ads and restaurant ads though.
If you are talking about POLITICAL POSTS BY USERS that is totally different. You might consider using an ad blocker but that also has some downsides. You also might make your topic titles a little clearer. "I DON"T UNDERSTAND" can have many meanings.

I have never seen a political ad on TOTV. As mentioned previously, the ads YOU see are driven by your browsing history, and cookies. An educated guess...you probably see the same types of ads across all of your devices that hit the internet. So the question is, why is TOTV evil?

It amazes me how many people, in this day, do not understand they are being constantly tracked and that tracking affects everything they see on the internet and the spam calls and messages they get on their phones. |

And the site "bans" political posts, not political ads. |
