PS90X Advert
I believe it's called PS90X, for the most part I had never paid attention to it.
I have never *heard* the ad before, so when there was a very annoying commercial coming from my speakers, I got confused, I found the source of the annoyance, problem is there was no way to mute or shut the damn thing up.
I'm speaking up about the ad because I think it is bullshit that it randomly spouts off whenever it feels and you can't shut it up or make it stop without leaving this site. Bummer.The

Re: PS90X Advert
you can use a plugin like adblock plus to block the ads

Re: PS90X Advert
How many people actually click on ad banners though? They are your basic form of spam. I'd sooner block all of the things out that I'm not looking for. That's partly why I also run noscript...
Sure, boards and sites use the banners for revenue... but that doesn't mean I, as a user, should have to put up with it on any website on the internet.III%

Re: PS90X Advert
Yes... you USE the service. Why should you not be expected to contribute to it in some small way?
I see that you DO subscribe to THIS forum - in which case you won't see most (if any) of the ads on this site. But any other site that doesn't offer subscriptions - they have to pay for hosting, bandwidth, servers, etc.... they pay for all of that through ad revenue and if EVERYONE runs adblocking software, then all of these great sites that we love so much are going to go to a paid-access only model or just shut down entirely.

Re: PS90X Advert
Understood, and it is true. However, I have never once clicked on a web ad(anywhere) with intent of purchasing, nor do I find them anything but a nuisance. I'd sooner go to my reliable sources and friends for advice on where to buy things, not spam.. But that's just me..
I don't mind small banners as much, but the ones that makes noise, or the ones that pop out and are almost impossible to close, truly annoy the heck out of me...Last edited by NikeBauer21; August 31st, 2010 at 01:54 PM.
