another opinion ..
Tournament Illuminated (TI) is a "official" SCA publication and they
accept and publish *relevent* commercial advertisements. Most
similar official publications of other organizations do the same.
why? in mnay cases simply to help defray costs of
service to allow the publicatoion to remain online. i am
increasingly seeing the same economic realities drive many
web-masters and publishers (it all costs - server time, maintanaence,
repair, front & back bandwidth all cost $$$ ... and lunch ain't
free)
why should web publications be held to a different set of standards
than their dead-tree brethren?
