Stop With The Pop Up Ads!

[GmanJoe]

I got FOUR pop up ads just now and some stupid Casino site made itself my default site!

I know you need to finance your website and I can appreciate the effort you\'ve put into it but please, don\'t let pop ups change my settings on my Internet Explorer. I hate that. Fix it, please.

Thank you.

Björn must somehow pay for this site, I click em, and every ad I see to keep this site up and running.

when u start donating money joe, we\'ll lose the ads

i\'d be suprised if bjorn barely breaks even running this site, and thats just bandwidth costs

his time is the most precious asset

What I don\'t like is that one of those pop up ads changed my default homepage...you know, when you first open your browser? I don\'t want pop ups that make changes to my stuff.

I do appreciate his effort in maintaining this site, as I mentioned before but I just don\'t want that Casino site making itself the homepage.

Well I haven\'t gotten that particular pop up yet (thank god)

However, I do enjoy the shoot the ducks banner.

I\'m sorry about the pop-ups, they are set to load only once/day/user. (for each "company").

I don\'t like pop-ups very much and never used them before... but now those ads are like the only ads that pay :/

We just moved to a new server, so I really need that ad revenue now to pay for the server.

Anyhow, the ads should not mess with settings like that. I guess an advertiser decided it was "great" to change the homepage setting. When the ad-network servering an ad that does that to the browser settings they will cut that ad/company out immediatly.
I never got an ad that messed with my setting so I guess that ad is already out of rotation.
If I myself notice anything like this I directly remove the adcode for the network that is serving the ad and wait a day to add it again so they have had time to remove that specific ad from their rotation.

So, I\'m sorry about this incident. :/

mm: Hey hey, Clyde, I realize we need the money, but I think you\'re goin a bit overboard on this GmanJoe pussy. We can\'t get money from dead people.

Clyde: Yeah, I getcha, but yunno, dis ere ****er is so ungrateful, the boys back home is so ****in generous to his ****ing ass, and he ****s all over us like we was some sheet of 5 ply ****in asswipe!

mm: I know, and I don\'t like it neither, but come on Clyde, the little bastard is so smallfry. I don\'t wanna be banned from this casino, and neither do you, you understand? Understand?

Clyde: Yeh, I hear ya, ya goddamn thievin Jew. But still, that ****er\'s askin to be waxed, I think I oughtta break his ****in legs just as a warnin to the little scumbag, till he puts up the ****in cash, yunno what I mean?

By the way, we need some "Shock the Money for $20" ads. Those things are delightfully entertaining.

(Note to mods: This was a parody of the movie "Casino", and none of the slurs were heartfelt. So don\'t delete this, it\'s funny.

Thanks for listening, Bjorn. Anyway, I\'m gonna get a pop up ad "closer" program downloaded. I have checked a few of your ads to help out with your overhead, usually once a day.

I\'m sorry but I can\'t allow people using that kind of software on my sites.

That way people use my site and bandwidth (which I pay for!) but don\'t see the ads. So they are like stealing money from me to pay for the server and other costs...

Use software like that and you\'ll "help" the sites you visit to a certain death (if they are relying on ad revenu to pay costs).

Jesus H. Unbelieveable Christ people, why would you ***** about a few popup ads? This site has em, but I\'ve been to places where they are far worse than this, to the point where actually using the site is impeded. It\'s not bad here at all. Try using EZboard.

In any case, I hate popups, but I\'ll do what I can to keep the place up.

That was pretty funny welt:laughing:

DO you only get money if the ad pops up or if we click on the ad?  Or do we have to actually do something once we get to the site like sign up for something for you to get money?
