Brad Posted August 22, 2010 Group: Admin Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 97,043 Reputation: 10,833 Days Won: 469 Joined: 05/19/2000 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I can't think of another free site that does not have ads, often more intrusive that a not so bad looking lady talking football. But still, the request has been made to have it removed.I guess if we were covering all costs, we wouldn't be discussing it. Years ago, when hosting only cost about $20/month it was no bid deal. At $200/month, it becomes a bigger deal. Again, I have allowed the ads but only under certain conditions and those are specifically pop-ups and audio disallowed. The company I offer the space to does try to get most bang for buck and occasionally unauthorized ads pop in.With it being a free site for all those that do not donate to help out, I ask for your patience through this issue.

Perhaps it is time once again to seek donations from regular users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nybullsfan Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 You don't need Adblock. Under Firefox, just the Flashblock addon is enough. I have never seen this ad, but I have seen the Flash "container" for it several times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Page load times seemed to have slowed down considerably. Will see how it goes. But I may just have to wait for Brad to get this one ad removed.
