Woah there cowboy! You are going to just arbitrarily move archives
without consent
of the web team because the company providing the hosting for archives
doesn't
want advertising for their own company on the site?

So let me understand, Hub doesn't get to make money off of Command
Prompt's services
that it provides for the community? So the owner of Hub just redirects
the traffic?

That seems completely wrong to me.

To be clear, my primary complaint was not the hosting of archives.
Command Prompt is
happy to host the archives and almost any other service the community
wishes. I don't think
anyone on this list thought my complaint was the hosting of archives. My
primary complaint
was there seemed zero reason for the Google ads.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
