    Thinking of dumping MH for this...

    Random Ads on the site...

    Can I recommend that you remove these random AdChoice ads from the site. They are making the site distracting and very tacky. Isn't the site bringing in enough money between vendor and member sponsors? IF you want ads on the site how about you have them on there for non-logged in people...
