sorry, i know they help pay for the site and all, but they are annoying, it almost made me turn away from here when i first came here, a banner would be nicer than a popup window IMO

yeah I definatly agree with that. I hate popups, they take more time to close then it takes to read what you want:(

Maybe we should all sign a petition and give it to the administrators. I think everyone agrees the pop ups are annoying.

Okay okay... I turned off the pop-ups. :o
If I missed any, let me know who the advertiser is and I'll turn it off.

I'll email all of you when my bills come in this month.. ;)

I de-selected all the advertisers that had pop-up ads... I got a couple today as well. I went back and re-checked, but everything looks good. I am thinking that maybe it will go into effect tomorrow when the adsite updates (but I could be wrong).

I'll keep trying ;)

Then when I got into the forum I got a grouplotto scratch card..

When I first got on HondaStyle today at around 2:35, the Colonized pop up came up.

Chief

Dang...now I'm double annoyed. Not only do I have to view them but I can't figure out how to turn the stupid things off.

...still trying... :mad:

I haven't had an annoying popup in a day and a half. The last one I experience was yesterday at 2:35 in the afternoon. I think the problem is fixed. Yeah

sorry i should have red this first. i get miss cleo poping up all over the place. maybe she is every where.

I hate to tell you this but I also got the Miss Cleo popups as well as the Providian.com popup this morning... Sorry...

2000Pimpinex
09-19-2001, 07:24 AM
Ahhhh noooo, Ms. Cleo. Chris is gonna loose it with this one. I think its a never ending battle with the pop-ups. Maybe its something we are gonna have to live with. NOoo

Chief
09-19-2001, 07:48 AM
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!

These pop-ups are going to be the end of me ;)
Okay, I found the Ms Cleo culprit and promptly turned it off. You see, what happens is that the ad service will ad a new advertiser to the rotation and I don't necessarily know it... that's how the pop-ups keep sneaking in.

I just hit refresh like 30 times and I didn't see any pop-ups... But I can rest assured someone will let me know if any are still there ;) heh heh...

Providian.com is another one. I get it on every page.

Chief
09-19-2001, 09:35 AM
Okay..found it - was a little tricky as it wasn't listed as "Providian". But..to make you all happy, I painstakingly went through each and every listed advertiser until I found it.

I need to take a break now... lol...

Big James
09-19-2001, 09:40 AM
Wait, I got another one.... www.burstnet.com :p

Take a break man. Thanks.
