Can we just get full page adds and git rid of the forum all together?

I mean, ****, were up to half the page gets covered by this stupid *** arm wrestling add, why stop there, lets just get rid of all the wasted space where people post about SNOWMOBILES and just put up adds everywhere!!


Im not one to complain a lot on here but seriously, at this rate in another year i wont even be able to see the ****ing screen! I understand the need for adds, but I also pay to participate on a FORUM, not a billboard.

Rant over....

I agree with you 100% on this one.
The moment I saw it I contacted everyone at Harris Publishing and started begging them to REMOVE IT.

Heck, I am the Admin and it stopped me from logging in several times!

They are now in the process of having it removed from the display list.

Should be moved DOWN for the moment while they wait for it to be removed all together.

thanks chris, appreciate it, its seriously annoying.

 

[christopher]

They all agreed.
They all saw it as well.
But I don't think any of them knew what the advertiser was placing there.

I'm glad it was not just my computer. If these ADs (which I have never read nor clicked on) continue to propagate and interfere with the forum content, I will walk way from my lifetime membership and participate elsewhere. I'm here for sled content, not whatever BS someone is waving in my face.

This will fall on deaf ears, but I had to say it.

Install a free adblocker. The only thing I see is that little video in the upper right corner.

Good advice right here. I did this last night, no more ads on any website. One of those "why didn't I do this years ago???" type of moments.

If it were my job to sell advertising for this site,
and I was aware of how unpopular these types of ads were with the site users (the ultimate customers),
then I simply offer traditional ad space & not force these ads upon my ultimate customers.

But sadly, the user satisfaction appears to rate lower than it should with whomever is marketing the ad sales here.

Its one thing for a non paid member to have these stupid ads, but for the premium guys? this is ridiculous!

I said out loud... "Im paying for this crap?"

 

[richracer1]

The "forum" trailer has to be paid for some how.......

 

[snowmobiler]

can i get a popup badge

 

[Mjunkie]

I use tapatalk on my phone. Doesn't have all the features as going to the forum on my computer, but NO ads! You heard right NONE!

Crap! I hope no one from Harris just read that or else that might change.

The stupid arm rasslin ad is gone!!!!!!

Thank you snowest.

X2, because the one for Safari (Mac) did nothing, that I noticed at least.

Adblock plus. Mines for Internet Explorer though.

brc is looking a lot more appealing.

If we have to put up with these ads and pop up I think it's time to move.

BCR- 32 members online right now
Snowest- 4000+ members online right now

Maybe not a good move for someone that pushes their products and services on a forum.
