jtmulc Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Lately I've been seeing new ads on this site that pop up from the bottom of the page. I can't say that I like them much.Years ago, when we were asked to whitelist nsanedown, I went along with it. We were promised they would just be small, unobtrusive, text-based rollover ads and I thought, "Well, the site has to support itself somehow. It shouldn't be that bad," and it hasn't been until now. Yes, these ads can be closed, but why are they there in the first place? Have the ad rates changed so we need them to keep afloat? I don't see any posts in the site announcements, nor ant in the site/forum feedback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davmil Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 A lot of work & I'm sure expense goes in to keeping this quality site up. I'd rather donate a few $ than have to put up with rollover/pop-up ads. Thanks to all that contribute their time and efforts for all of our benefit and education.

shought Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 It's been disabled :)This isn't a recent change though, it's been like this ever since we moved to Infolinks. These ads only showed up when you reach our site through a search engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had it bookmarked for years.EDIT: Still seeing them. Edited February 15, 2014 by jtmulc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
