I notice as a premium member we can see.

But for some reason we cant see.

Why is this? I know you said premium members would not have to see ads but I do not class them as ads as such they are forum affiliates, Like the top image we can see.

If we can see one, We should be able to see the other.

Yes everyone can. But what I mean is we should see the bottom one if we can see the right hand side one :)

Does that make sense?

I had it configured to disappear for gold members as I thought it might look like ads. It will now show again for gold members.

See, now we all know what Penguin feels with regards to this. I'd be interested in finding out what the rest of the Premium members thought.

So would I. I dont mind if others would like to get rid of them again. I just think if your going to block partner sites, Then you should block the ones on the right too.

If i was a gold member, I wouldn't want to have that partner sites. It makes me feel hectic i don't know why...I'd prefer a less links surface.

Just add a check box to the profile...display yes/no and use an if statement.

I honestly don't mind the partner sites at the bottom at all. However, it would be nice to have them hidden from the side bar, or perhaps moved down a notch or so, so that things like "View Unanswered Posts", "View Unread Posts", etc. are at the top of the sidebar.
