Have you seen this add?  -

Have you heard this add?? Yes, that's right, the fly buzzes at you. VERY annoying.

I understand that Nitrozac and Snaggy need to make their livelyhood off this site, however, using buzzing banner adds is one step too far in my book.

Snaggy, can you put a stop to this nonsense?

Along the same lines, I was quite confused when I heard frogs ribbiting on my computer. I can make it up to you when Josh gets his next commision check. I promise I'll renew my Superfan status!

Yes, while I understand I don't have much to complain about since I'm not a subscriber (I haven't paid January's rent, cut me some slack. [Razz] ), but ads that make noise are wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong.

Snaggy, for the love of Google, please get rid of that ad.

/me is not a happy dragon when one of his favorite songs is tainted with a stupid buzzing noise...

Hmmm, I haven't seen that ad.

I've just blocked all audio ads coming via our ad network. If you do see any more, send me the url of the site.

Just so you know, since blocking pop-ups and pop-unders several months ago, Nitro and I receive about $200 less per month. That's a big deal for us, so we do hope you all appreciate this. [cry baby]

I certainly do appreciate it, Snaggy. You keep seeing that subscription coming in monthly, right? [Smile]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! [Big Grin] [Big Grin]
