Ad links have been off for 2 days and no one's noticed. They can't be that bad then :p
 
lol :)

(although, I didn't mind them since it gives the site more money to be even cooler)
 
I didn't mind them, but what really pisses me off is that god damn Jamba ad. If I want to watch jamba ads all day long, I can just watch MTV. What is with Jamba anyway? Slowly consuming the world or something?
 
I ain't seen shit for weeks almost now, Firefox is sooooo cool.
 
We were hoping you hadn't noticed Munro...

;)
 
Yes, thank you a lot, Munrofl ;)

Seriously, those ads were kinda annoying, especially since they are made by those companies you love to hate, like Jamba for example. :bonce:

Umm, we HAVE noticed, but the silence you hear on this is that those of us who were not happy have STOPPED complaining (and this is partly because we gave up talking about this, because the mods kept closing the threads on it in the FRIGGING FEEDBACK FORUM, despite that this is exactly the forum for it).

That being said, They were not enough to make me leave (even with them, I still think there is no better HL2 site out there), and I hope you guys can find some way to generate ad revenue that is a little less disruptive. Having your post about HalfLife2 become an ad for Halo or Halo 2 just because you mentioned the game was a very common ocurrence, and ran counter to almost every poster's intent. The site is much better off without the ads. Thanks Munro, for listening to us!!
 
Heheh, I didnt notice.


But I didnt give a rats ass about them in the first place....


sooo......

Yeah.
 
Never noticed them in the first place either. Maybe 'cause of Opera, I don't know. Saw pics of them though & I must say, wtf is all the whining about?

This forum stops being a feedback forum when we've had four threads on the same subject all with every single argument played out to the max and the thing you're giving feedback on is completely unconstructive for everyone involved :)

Anyway they're gone now, they won't be making a return. We love you guys too much to have you disappear over something so trivial :E Yes, we even love you MajorPayne :cheese:
 
Indeed, thanks. I noticed it on the occasions I had to use Internet Explorer... ugh.

( 700th post :D )
 
Cheers, i noticed a lack of linkage and the pages loaded allot faster today atleast :)

Indeed. Opera didn't show them for me either.

Awww. I loves you too /hugs everyone in sight :cheers:

Sorry to give you guys a hard time about this, but I feel that you have absolutely the best HL2 site in existence (which is why I am STILL here, after HL2 release, and you mods are the main reason for that). So when I see something which lowers the quality of the site, I gotta say something.

Besides, as my same says, I gotta be a "Major Pain" sometimes. :E

Thank you for removing them, admins/munro/santa. I had them blocked, but I appreciate it nonetheless.

There are banner ads?
Well there's Google Ads at the moment. When we have proper banner ads click them loads and if you're using Firefox don't and use IE so you can see the ads and then click them at least three times each and write scripts and programs that will auto click them.

/me puts a "Site best viewed in Internet Explorer 6" on the front page and lights another cigar with a burning £50 note

:E

In all seriousness, any time you guys can click any of the ads on the site is always a great help. It's not expected of you but it would be appreciated :)
 
Eeew. I clicked a google link and it took me to targt.com :x
 
you should organize a clicking drive or something
