I did say 'some might say'...not neccessarily my opinion. Apologies for spreading unfounded terrace tittle-tattle from others.But can you not see how a commercial business only being here to plug their services on a free site that makes a huge point of not allowing adverts may sit rather uncomfortably with me? They're free to add a short post on a relevant thread but it's getting a bit spammy now.
I only mention places I like and want to recommend, and to suggest that there's any kind of bias because they supposedly "look after" me or not is actually deeply fucking insulting. I care about what I'm involved with, and that's why I never recommend things I don't like and that's why I've turned down thousands of pounds of advertising and partnerships deals over the years.
