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.

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.
