Ad Banners

Postby HGervais » Sun Aug 15, 2010 5:16 pm

I understand the need for revenue but banners at the top and the bottom? And where the top ones sit on the page is, well, kind of annoying. Is there a way to fiddle with their placement?

Sorry, guys. We need to get people to click on the ads. It costs to keep the site and forum running.

I was amused to see an ad for Friskies Cat Food within a half-hour of having bought some.

You only say that because Melissa hasn't asked you to become a slutty web-cam teen yet. It's humiliating.

And you only say THAT because you haven't found the link to my site.

We wouldn't need ads if Melissa would just take my investment advice. I'm telling you I have a direct line to multiple Nigerian princesses who are ready and willing to include us in a lucrative diamond import/export opportunity.

Plus, I know a number of GIs stationed in Iraq who have large sums of money they collected from Saddam's palaces. All they need is a valid bank account to which they can transfer the money. They'd be more than happy to let us keep a percentage as payment for our trouble.

Didn't one of us win the Spanish National Lotto?

Vargas did. But the prize was the equivalent of eight bucks, and he used it to buy four more HD DVD players.

Strange, I see no ads, anywhere.

Are you using Firefox with adblock on? It kills the banners. I didn't know what people were talking about till I fired up the laptop.
