Am I the only one that finds it hilarious that the nest went to all the trouble to post apologies for *gasp* running a wedding-related ad on a newlywed site, but they can't seem to get a working search function, nesties' siggies aren't working, their site is "down for routine maintenance" at peak hours for several times a month,etc.
I didn't even notice the dress ad - and if I did, I most certainly wouldn't need an apology to help me get over being offended... 
Re: Apology?
I will say the ad was super annoying. It popped up like 3 times WHILE I was trying to answer a post. I think something was wrong with it, so I just closed out of TN.
Agree that the search function and the siggie issues should have already been addressed YEARS ago, though!
I also think it's funny that they locked the post for comments, as I am sure the search function would have come up...again. lol.
And - she has 2 posts rocking. Do THEY even know how to use the boards??
