• When you see an ad you wish to view, click the 'view' button for that ad.
• We do not pre-screen our members ads.  Because all ads are posted only by members, you should not see anything inapropriate unless some spammer pays for a membership to ATW and places an ad.  It's not likely, but it is possible.
