    Are you really wondering why? The denial feedback says enough IMO...

    Remember it's an illegal substance in many countries.

    I'd like to thank the moderator who denied that advert. It's good to see quality control is not allowing in adverts for sites advocating illegal activities. Perhaps you could start your own ad coop for criminal sites.

    I think you need to use your brain... In a responsible manner! And think before you ask silly questions.

    Did you really expect the majority of us to go "Yeah those are fine with me, which reviewer would ban such a quality ad?"

    Give us a break...

    I don't care to show the ads on my business sites for professional reasons.

    Criminal is subjective. You can not call it criminal since most states have de-criminalized it and in some countries it was never illegal.

    This is a moral issue for us personally, not a legal issue. Don't hide behind the law with your pesonal feeelings. Say what YOU mean.

    I don't think it was fair for you to insinuate he was a criminal. Did you learn to pass judgement like that in Church?

    noppid, it's criminal in the US - period. it is possible for circumstances to be moral AND legal.

    in any case, it's a drug site, it's a no brainer that it wasn't allowed.

    I totally disagree with the first part, take california for instance. Pot is decriminalized for lots of folks.

    The second part I agreed with. I was offended that personal judgement was passed on the person instead of the site.

    Last I checked, just because pot was not legal "everywhere", there are absolutly no laws that make discussing the subject "illegal". Discussing it does not make one a criminal and I resented that as I said. But back to pargraph two, I can't show those ads.

    Sorry, I must not have worded it right if you thought I was accusing the person of being a criminal. I have no idea if he engages in criminal activity or not. What I meant was that this site advocates criminal activity. Where I live it's a crime. Where most of the people I do business with live, it is a crime. My comment about a crime ad coop was flippant, and not meant to offend.

    Yes, bad wording, it surprised me.

    As I said, in a business sense, I think we have to look at it that way.

    not to be picky, but the federal government ruled that states aren't allowed to do that. not that it matters. i do understand your point. there are lots of people here not from the US, and there are places in the world where it is legal.

    we do agree from the business point of view :)
