Banner ads with sound?
« on: October 09, 2002, 08:10:47 AM »
Oh man, I clicked on this forum and my speakers were turned up and BOOM, a Verisign ad with sound.

How many ways can web advertising become annoying?

I\'ve never heard it on this site, some other sites have them all the time though (very irritating).

At least you don\'t here this in the background

Nice.  When I put ads on my forums I\'ll make sure not to have any with sound.  Thanks for the heads up on what you thank about them.

yeah, No one wants to hear about your stupid forum in here.  There isnt much that bothers me, but for some reason, you do.  I will never understand why you come to a forum to talk about your forum.  Go talk to the people that post there to ask what they like and dont like.  Just dont annoy us with it.

Sound in ads is very annoying.  All these stupid new Flash ads have sound.  It\'s terrible and sometimes they scare the heck our of me cause it is usually pretty quiet while I\'m on the computer.

First time I heard that, it scared the shit out of me. I was like, "WTF was that?" I can\'t listen to music anymore because it suprises me and is there.

It\'s annoying and intrusive. If I want to hear commercials, I\'ll watch TV.
