HD Ads?

So what's the deal with the HD Banner advertisements on Triumphrat.net? Does this mean we can no longer speak our mind about a certain inferior bike manufacturer, since they are vendors of this site?

Yeah my stomach churned a little the first time an HD ad popped up a page I loaded at Triumphrat. Seems kind of sick really.

I love the free market.
HD is welcome to place ads here.
We can click or no, as is our wont.

The HD marketing department just wanted an excuse to come to our forums to see what real riders talk about.
