Why I don't like clicking on Google adds

[Eric]

The point is, to those who don't understand, is that as an online business, you can't assume someone will go that extra step (even if it's minimal) to download firefox, or even ctrl+click to open a google page. The normal surfer is using IE and doesn't do all that, and we're all lazy. Bottom line. I click it because Rukas has asked of it. But it is rather annoying to not have it open in a new window.

That's true, but I was of the opinion that ppl on on 2Pacboard were intelligent ppl, and therefore use a grown-up browser....well intelligent for the most part.

Huh? In IE, right click.... you cant be that lazy?!

I've actually found interesting things in clicking the ads... found some nice clothes on dr jays that i cant buy, music i cant download and forums i dont want to visit... ultimately though, no-one gives a shit. Click them and shut up. lol.

Thats just how google ads work, it opens in the same window, no way around it, case closed.

So it takes you away for 1 minute.

Are people really this dumb / selfish / annoying?

If you don't leave the site for 5 seconds a day, you and everyone else may end up leaving it for ever. To explain further for the dumb people - It may well end up too expensive for Rukas to keep supporting.
