I suggest that you visit them and judge for your self who among the two is lacking in “honor and respect”.<br /> <br />“the least one can do is to help bloggers who fill their blogs with ads everywhere overwhelming the quality of the posts by politely saying that the ads are overwhelming. that simple.”<br /><br />It’s not that simple. Remember, it’s their blog. It is the embodiment of who they are. They have every right to do with it as they please. Telling them how to manage their blog, may it be constructively or even in a polite manner is a no-no to me. The last thing I want is being told to keep my “unsolicited advice” to myself.<br /><br />I hope I’m clear with this.

Plus iba yung nagbloblog ka galing sa puso, walang motive to earn, but rather to share. I love visiting sites na walang masyadong ads.

Right now, I only maintain google adsense which is a commonality, this is to cover my domain and hosting fees. I just want to make sure that its positioning and colors blend with my layout to make them (less) annoying. =) Then recently, I accepted a request for 5 text link ads on travel and food stuff because these fit my interest. <br /><br />To put an ad or not depends on the purpose and representation of the blogger. But I must say that I really, really admire those blogs that are ad-free. =)witsandnutshttp://witsandnuts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-81933378306685551462009-07-04T09:58:45.149+03:002009-07-04T09:58:45.149+03:00I agree with your sentiments, being an independent...I agree with your sentiments, being an independent blogger with an independent mind, nobody should dictate or influence us of our decisions on who to link or who to be endorsed or whose ads to be posted.
