I'm not sure who is trying to point fingers at who here, but there is no way anyone other than forum admins who have the rights/access to do anything regarding VB ads and administration. Someone once said it was a "web host" I believe, which is utter crap.
You guys are probably only hearing from 1% of the people on here who aren't happy with this. Losing 10-20 probably won't matter. When people don't return and posts drop off maybe someone will get the point.
Rob is not a liar, and he's stated more than once that he hates those ads and is trying to rid the forums of them altogether.
Phases is not a liar, either, and he's stated that he, too wants them gone.
I am speculating, but I think that it has to do with the agency that provides the access for the ads to appear here; that agency is probably slow to move, maybe even to the point of not doing so unless litigation is eminent. Again, just guessing wrt to that.
