Gepetto 979 Posted March 7, 2023 They should make the ads only for guests. The few regulars here when signed in could be exempt from ads when signed in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,589 Posted March 7, 2023 I put the ad blocker in but now I have to disable it to find out how much stupid money the Giants are going to throw at Daniel Jones. I want him back, but at the right price. They can win with him, but he needs help. If he’s a hog he won’t be getting any. Stand tough g men. If he walks , he walks.

easilyscan 553 Posted March 7, 2023 Disabled my ad blocker to see what all the fuss was about. No problem with the single banner ad on top, but the one on the bottom is a pain in the arse. Probably just a matter of time before we'll be required to disable blocking programs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you need a woman in your life who isn’t your mom. Or a man who isn’t your dad, if that’s your preference Always projecting your own life on others. It's so obvious your need for attention. It's why you so obviously follow around anonymous people online like you are doing with me. How humans like you grow up to be so weak in life is always such a surprise, yet you have good company with your login list of sites to cry on. Grow up you puzzy. Maybe you will one day get the nerve to go outdoors. But that said, you would most likely say somethong stupid to someone like me and that person would just push you down and walk away laughing.

jonmx 1,558 Posted March 8, 2023 It looks like they went with the bottom pop-up ad only. The top popup ad made using the phone unbearable. Still an ad at the top of the page, but you can scroll away from it. The bottom ad takes up more screen space and makes posting a pain in the ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
