Rather boring ad, isn't it?

I don't find it offensive, but it does seem to be giving the impression that AOL should get your business just because they have a Gay & Lesbian section. They don't tell you anything else about it, the mere fact that it exists is enough. I don't think this ad is very effective because while it lets you know there's a forum, you have no reason to think that it's worth going to compared to any other gay forum.

It might work on someone who's not computer savvy and can't find any other forums, I suppose.
