Default Why

I'm a life time supporting member, I strat a post asking about the pop ups and it gets lock, This is BULL ****. I guess this is one way to chase poeple away from this forum. How about refunding my money I payed to support this forum. I did not pay this to whatch pop ups everytime I read a post. New owners or not this is BULL ****.

Uh... There is a pop up on your post.

I don't care about the banners and the margins as I understand the supporting vendor's desire for exposure but right on a members post is too much.

BTW I refuse to click on the pop up.

The short answer to why? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

There's a thread in off topic to complain on. Let's all make that the biggest thread ever. Maybe they will get the hint

Maybe if they changed the pop up once in a while. I'm tired of seeing Dale. I kind of ignore it like the ones on the tv screens.

If these ads stay, I think I'm going to be spending less time here... it's really annoying.

Screw them. If they lock our threads, just keep starting new ones. Ads. are one thing, but in the middle of a post? Come on!
