WTF is up with this new advertising shit...

[HalfBaked]

It is slowing IA the fuck down. It makes everything lag when loading up. What is this shit?!

[Echonova]

Gotta pay the bills some how I guess. Not like the broke ass guys on here are gonna help.:no:

[aaronfelipe]

Good point,

[Hulud]

It is slowing IA the fuck down. It makes everything lag when loading up. What is this shit?!
yea it is lagging the fuck outta IA

[PhAtBoYMr2]

julio's making that paper son

[Sol-Badguy]

I was just about to make a thread on it.

Fucking sucks.

Well be glad I did, I carry clout, you carry nothing.

Your thread would be overlooked.

[PhAtBoYMr2]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :lmfao:

[HalfBaked]

I'd fucking donate money to get these fucking ads turned off.

[Sol-Badguy]

x2

[Echonova]

They need to have a membership. If you pay to join you don't see the ad's or links. Don't pay, still get on---and lag

[VegetaRules]

Okay, I thought my CPU had mini virus or something as to why IA was loading slower. Is there an option to turn off the AD's?? Oh to the poster who said we wouldn't pay...I've paid before to keep a site I moderated ad, & lag free.:yes:

What we need is a paypal link on this site for donations( if there is one already, my bad, point me too it.lol). As much a benifit this site is to people who wanna learn about cars, sell cars,sell parts, sell anything we should donate something to keep it unlagged.:yes::goodjob:..Vegeta

[Echonova]

I would gladly pay to keep IA up and running. By far better than anything we had in Tucson.... but look at how many bitched because of losing RDS, and you think that they'll cough up money?

[PhAtBoYMr2]

i offered julio $25,000 to buy the domain name but he refused

I couldv'e made millons!

[rupertaker]

I'd be more than happy to donate. =/

[VegetaRules]

Well, then I guess the next step is to find out how much IA needs to turn these ad's off. Echnova, I think people just missed the porn sites/pics of the RLD. I mean it was free anyway.lol

So who's making the post? lol....Vegeta

[Tracy]

I'm sure there are contracts for the ads now. You can't just take them down without pissig the advertisers off.

[Echonova]

Contracts?..We don't need no stinking contracts..We're IA FTW!!!!!!!

[VegetaRules]

Oh I know how all that works Tracy. I do wish we'd have known tho before they came in and lagged the board up. Well there's always another way to unlag the board. lol....Vegeta

[Julio]

Doing a test ... If it doesnt work in a few days or so.. I will have them removed.. But if it works out... They will be around.....

Gotta keep IA free =] ... IA is not cheap to maintain.... =[

[BiH1320]

Im not having any problems. DSL FTW!

[quickdodge®]

It is slowing IA the fuck down. It makes everything lag when loading up. What is this shit?!

I was wondering what the hail was going on. Also, half the words on each page are clickable links. UGH!!! Later, QD.

[Mr_Mischif]

^^GOD I fucking hate those.

[tony]

So this is why the porn is gone? lol As a site owner I understand completely.. I remember acurazine went through the same process, strangely that site didnt slow down half as much though.

[BTLFED]

Well be glad I did, I carry clout, you carry nothing.

Your thread would be overlooked.

Bahaahha!! :lmfao:

sr20forum is free, but also there are people who can donate who have special privledges, I think it should be the same way.

[Crazy Asian]

I though we got hackeed by a L33t HAXOR!!!! Never mind then. Carry on.

[Brett]

What ads are you all talking about? I dont see any and nothing is slowing IA down for me :???:

[quickdodge®]

What ads are you all talking about? I dont see any and nothing is slowing IA down for me :???:

The words in blue are clickable links to corresponding websites and ads at the top of the pages. It's causing the site to run choppy. Later, QD.

[Brett]

Hmmmm im not seeing any of that

[The Ninja]

I told you so ....

[Brett]

Very odd, I dont see any of the stuff showing in QD's screen shot, I guess I am not getting the advertisements. Maybe a perk of being an admin? It shows when Leisa is on her laptop under her name, so I guess since I am an admin I dont see these advertisements which is why im going fast on here and dont see them

[quickdodge®]

^^^FF or IE? Later, QD.

[Brett]

IE7 and Leisa has IE7 but she see's it on her account, So its me being an admin that keeps me from seeing it I guess

[quickdodge®]

Could be. I'm on FF and I've seen the ads at the top for a while, but the clickable links just started showing up today. Later, QD.

[Brett]

Well no one can bitch, This site costs money to run, members dont pay... so its gotta come from somewhere

[BTLFED]

Well no one can bitch, This site costs money to run, members dont pay... so its gotta come from somewhere

Isn't it past your bedtime old man?

[quickdodge®]

What you said goes right along with "Beauty is only skin deep." Lolol.

Says the man who doesn't have to endear this shit....lolol. I'm not sweating it, myself. Lolol. Later, QD.

[Brett]

Isn't it past your bedtime old man?

Nah I still have 25 minutes

[TeeJay]

hmmm im on ff at home and ie at work, and ive seen no ads or clickable links

[Brett]

Nah I still have 25 minutes

Don't forget to soak your dentures!

[BTLFED]

[Crazy Asian]

I hacked the system so nothing shows up. Nada zip zilch.

[VegetaRules]

Well Brett, I'm sure with all the " well-off" members here, we coulda tried to kick in.lol Hell, as much bitching was done about losing the RLD, I'm sure THOSE dudes will kick in to get it back.lol

Seriously tho, I'm getting what QD is getting too. I tried both FF, & IE, & it's laggy at times, then not, then 5 minutes later it's back. Like I suggested, maybe sticky a post about donating to the site, add paypal link for the donations, & see what happens.lol

I'll be 1st in line. Or what ya'll could do is extend maybe to fantasy sports, with $20 entry fee's with $10 or so going to the site. See on my Madden site, they have the paypal link, & the members there kinda pay to be in this really big Madden League.

I'm just throwing out idea's not starting a revolution.lol:D Nor am I bitching, I just like surfing IA a little easier. lol....Vegeta

C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc

you can add that link to your host file

[Tarzanman]

screw that. when message boards lose features and kick in with slow ads then its time to move on. I seem to recall another site whose heyday came and went *cough*friendster*cough

[Hulud]

Doing a test ... If it doesnt work in a few days or so.. I will have them removed.. But if it works out... They will be around.....

Gotta keep IA free =] ... IA is not cheap to maintain.... =[
i agree, i just hope you can keep it from lagging so much

cause its really annoying

[Kyle]

No lagging for me. Must be a perk of one of the fastest internets in teh nation (so I am told) at Georgia Tech.

[JITB]

im late, but glad to see im not the only one... i thougt my cpu was goin nuts.

[.blank cd]

When i logged on @ work it kept giving me an error message

[GTScoob]

We've been talking about possibly getting these same ads on WRXatlanta for a while and now after seeing them on here I'm going to oppose them much stronger than in the past. It lags noticeably compared to before the ads.

Are you not making enough money from the countless other vendors on the site to where you need another $20 a month?

I've always pushed for a tiered membership where members can pay ~$3 per month to get rid of the ads; its also easy to offer greater PM storage as well as the possibility of offering email addresses or webhosting to paying members. There are enough members on here who could afford that, smoke one less pack of cigs per month or drink 2 less beers to get better privileges. Hell you could even offer a bunch of positive rep points for supporting members.

This would work.
I'd pay just for the extra PM storage.
