What, yours is flashing?!  All mine says is, "Sorry, this is not flashing.  You didn\'t win."  No, just kidding. :)  Get used to the banners, because it\'s only going to get worse.

I have never in my life clicked a banner.  I never even look at them.  

The best way for Bjorn to make money and I mentioned this a year ago is to make a coupon section and get referals from us buying games over the internet.  He could very easily make a page to EB, outpost, buy.com, etc and have us click on his referal to get to their sites.  Then he makes money if we buy stuff.  There are a lot of coupons out there for companies that sell PS2 games mailorder.  No reason why this site can\'t help us track them down.

This popup crap is just plain stupid.  It doesn\'t only pop up once.  It pops up every time I click on a thread.



By the way, I don\'t think the pop-ups will make you blind, but there is scientific evidence that beating off will do it.  You may want to tie your hands behind your back for a few days and see if your vision clears up.:D

Fascinating read.

You do realize that the post counts are counted by number of posts, not the number of words....

Muahahaha:D

Anyway... I dunno, I never really had the problems you peasants have. Probably because I\'m better than you all. Yep.

BTW, thanks for the Shoot the Duck ad! Those ones are at least kinda worth clicking:)

Hehe..  Mods kick butt.  Man Beef, that was definitely a fascinating read, but I don\'t think it needed to be in every thread.

Thank you.
