I dunno - I don't see the adverts - but I guess the argument is that adverts aren't content, whereas an external link as part of a thread is.

I really don't understand this, can anyone actually explain why living in the dark ages spending half your time working around all the "missing" features is "better" than just upgrading the software and not have your site look like the kinda throwback a neighbourhood watch group might use? The fact that simple quoting 'features' are even being discussed says a lot.
Let me put this into context, it's like buying a car with hand operated windscreen wipers. Sure they do the job but take a load more effort for the sake of what? Being different?
