Finally had to do it (Block ads)
« on: January 11, 2012, 09:05:09 am »
Had to run chrome adblock.  the three banners were pushing the forum content off the bottom of the screen on my laptop.  Oh well, i've got $200 credit on amazon from credit card incentives, I'll be sure to click them through here for Saint and the site.

3 banners? Really? Can you send me a screen shot without adblock to show me what it looks like?

I exaggerated- the 3rd banner is at the bottom.  Just the amazon banner and the main ad choices one at the top.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

I had three ads yesterday, but not today. It was a bit much.
Introducing The Tone Ledger, a premium 5x7 inch, 100 pg notebook designed for guitarists, bassists, keyboardists...pretty much anyone who enjoys using amps and pedals. Great for experienced musicians, hobbyists, or students just getting started.

Keep Track of Your Tones and Experiment Worry-Free

Yeah, didn't have it configured right. Fixed :)

I block em too, mostly so I dont punch a baby when I look at youtube vids. it is funny when the banner cycles and the forums hop around.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

I've got two at the top right now-half.com and amazon.
