Ads?

[Jeremy]

What's up with all the new extra ads? I can deal with most but ads between forum post? Come on now.

:love: :love: :love:

so it wasn't just me...

it is kind of a turn off

^^ It is either that or pop ups. You saying you can "deal" with most just means you can ignore the top ad when it is there right? That's probably why you and others dont click it. We need to generate revenue. Right now there are two thin banners after the first post in a thread. One is google one is adbrite, we will run both for a week and see which performs better then only keep one.

Guests also get pop ups in the torrents and movie links forums to "tax" the leechers but that shouldnt effect you if you are logged in.

You may also get one fullpage ad a day. We will see how that works and review it in a week.

How come I don't see any ads anywhere.

Nope. Maybe I have a program who blocks them.. I dunno :unsure:

 

[The.Menace]

banners is one thing, but full screen adds and those shitty green links we had, those suck.

 

[PuffnScruff]

I'll try and start clicking the banners and ads more often

Yeah the shitty green links are a no no but the full screen ad pops up once a day, I can live with that.

Site has been really slow for me since they went in.

I was going to make a thread about this, the ads do seem a bit excessive lately

 

[Shadows]

they never bugged me...except like yesterday, one popped up and i couldnt close it.

I had to ctrl-alt-delete to close it.

 

[Bender]

Ths site is a lot slower, and is annoying.

omg now i see the ads. there are way too many ads, especially that big one we have to click on skip ad to go back on streethop. ads between 1st post and 2nd post is okay.

That big ad you're talking about pops up once a day. I can live with seeing it once a day, you really cant?

Morale of the story is just click an ad once a day, takes two seconds out of your lives.

See I just clicked one and posted this while watching TV and cooking dinner.

^^ Its true. If everyone just clicked one add a day Caesar wouldnt have needed to implement the full page ads to raise revenue.

Oh I thought it was every time we come on the board. Once a day is okay.

now we are being forced to click one ad a day. Is the forum that desperate? We have subscribing members, ain't that enough?
