There is a fine line between providing information to members and posting what looks like an advertisement. It's more often than not a judgment call by the administrators as to what to leave and what to remove. We do have advertisers who pay to run their banners here on TOTV. As you can see, one of them is a car dealership.

Here's an example of a post that would stay.

Question: Anyone know of a good car dealership? I may be looking to get a new car.

Answer: Yes, I bought a new car from Dave Smith Honda a few months ago and was very happy with their sales department and service. You should give them a call.
