11/20/2007 4:17:35 PM

no pop-ups for me

11/20/2007 4:18:01 PM

firefox + adblock plus = premie account (sans html and other shit i don't care about)

11/20/2007 4:18:19 PM

there shouldn't be any popups, just banners on the top/bottom for non premium. if there are popups, please let me know the ad and i will yell at our ad company and take care of them.

11/20/2007 4:21:29 PM

HE SPEAKS

11/20/2007 4:22:30 PM

they aren't pop-up's. they are those kind that if you accidentally scroll over they expand and take up half the screen.


I do not care about GMC Sierras! maybe a month ago yes, but i just bought a new truck.

and as for flat panel tv's. i will not be buying from circuit city now.


thanks nael you iranny spy

11/20/2007 4:37:14 PM

I keep getting the pop ups without scrolling over the ad as well - pain in the ass!

11/20/2007 4:37:43 PM

hijack my nutz

lol, i should just fork over the lincoln and go premie. i dont know why i haven't yet. I'm on here everyday at work and with premie i could chat with my friends (put your names here)...



^yeah that happens b/c your mouse is in their popup area when they first load, like when clicking reply and when it loads it recognizes that and pops up. and if you're like me and hit enter at some point you get sent to bon jovi.com

Accidentally

11/20/2007 4:39:50 PM

no hurry nael, i personally prefer having corporations tell me what i need to buy as it takes thinking out of the equation for me, which is always a good thing

11/20/2007 4:40:44 PM

I knew someone would notice that. Yeah i googled how to spell accidentally for an earlier post. I had a brain fart


should have known you would be the one to call me out DiamondAce

11/20/2007 4:40:56 PM

just got off the phone with the ad company.

told them that we never want to have another set of ads that have rollover like that. they said it could take a few hours to get the current ads out of the system, but after that, we should be good to go.

sorry for the hassle.

11/20/2007 4:41:18 PM

three cheers for nael

i'll start

hip hip hooray

11/20/2007 4:41:56 PM

he is the ad company

Wtf is that supposed to mean?

11/20/2007 4:44:07 PM

^^haha, nope, we use a third party ad company. the idea is that we never have to deal with ads, but as you see today, it doesnt always work that way.

[Edited on November 20, 2007 at 4:44 PM. Reason : .]

11/20/2007 4:44:24 PM

i mean if i was an ad company i would buy a social site... just saying

11/20/2007 4:45:14 PM

i haven't seen anything since the first thread about popups.

i guess that's adblock. 3rd party ad company must be on my filterset already.

11/20/2007 4:45:46 PM

^^

yea, that was the original goal, but then we found out that we had much more fun running sites than actually selling ads...

11/20/2007 4:49:14 PM

if you're seeing pop ups and other ads...you deserve to be seeing them.

11/20/2007 4:49:43 PM

does it get you the ladies?

11/20/2007 4:49:47 PM

why are they still here????

11/26/2007 12:43:42 AM

Because you haven't used flashblock, adblock, or used one of the hosts files listed at the bottom of this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_file

If you all did that you would not be seeing any of that shit any more, lol.

11/26/2007 12:50:27 AM

WHAT THE FUCK

11/26/2007 12:52:40 AM

ALL THE ADS NOW ARE ENLARGING WITH OUT ME EVEN SCROLLING OVER THEM.

11/26/2007 12:53:25 AM

i shouldn't have to to keep ads from taking over my screen when all im doing is posting. im sorry i think thats bs, and they (nael) said he fixed but its still there so im bttting to let him know when he checks.

11/26/2007 12:53:26 AM

i CLOSE IT AND THEN IT POPS UP AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.



I THOUGHT YOU FUCKING FIXED THIS SHIT. I THOUGHT YOU WERE NOT EVER GOING TO HAVE THESE.

11/26/2007 12:54:45 AM

That's true!

You can't rely on people for anything these days though, plus you'll basically disable advertisements for every website in existence if you use the tools I mentioned.

11/26/2007 12:58:34 AM

well at this point ill say my comp is 5 years old and im hesitant to download any new programs, id jus rather not have giant ads pop up everytime i wanna post.

11/26/2007 1:03:59 AM

My programs are plugins for mozilla firefox, and the hosts file is integrated into windows so it doesn't really slow anything down. ;D

It's cool, somebody else will use it and sacrifice a goat in my honor.

11/26/2007 1:04:55 AM

well i will speak out for all the casual users who dont have crazy plugins to keep that shit from happening


but this shit is horrible

seriously

if my cursor goes near the top, GIANT AD

if it goes near the bottom, GIANT AD

NOT FUCKING COOL

11/26/2007 1:10:14 AM

hey guys, I know it sucks.

I've agreed to help with the problem. I'm working on it.

This shit just takes some time.

Just hold on for a little longer....

11/26/2007 1:11:24 AM

o word

i guess i wasted my time on the pm i sent out lol
