Guest guest Report post Posted March 13, 2002 None of the ads prevent anyone from reading messages. At the top of the ad you saw there was a link that said "Continue to message". This is certainly obnoxious and probably not too many people are going to bother to put up with it. But the companies whose ads you see have nothing to do with it. decided to convert the clubs to groups. decided to plaster ads all over the place. decided to place ads in between messages which makes it very difficult and time-consuming to try to read the messages. If you want to boycott anyone, it would be . It can be a little easier to navigate here by clicking on "messages" to the left and then on "expand messages". Still a bit of a pain.
