TC is NOT anti-Xispa or any other manufacturer. The rules are simple, have been in place for years and you all agreed to them on sign-up. NO ADVERTISING ON THE FORUMS. There is now a dedicated Forum where paying TC advertisers can post, but apart from that it is absoutely not allowed in any form. If it were then every Tom, Dick & Harry would be spamming their wares - and as I know from my experiences on the Subaru Forums where advertising is allowed and there is no control that a lot of innocent people have been conned. If Xispa or any other seller wish to advertise on TC then they'd be more than welcome. Our rates are way cheaper than the printed press, provide far more extensive exposure and are a 100% targetted market.
As far as Moderators/Admins go, they are appointed by me, I trust them totally and will back any decision made by them 100%.
Hope that clarifies things
