[oagersnap]

Well I'm in Germany and getting a Crazy Frog ad with text in German, so I guess they can detect in which country you are.

 

[Xen]

*Schnapp!*

however, I completlly agree; forum adverts with sound suck, amjorlly; nothign more annoyign then your chilling out to your fav song, when soem god-aeful advert with sound comes on, ruining your favo guitar solo.

What a word

I don't get Dutch ads though, right now it's a Wendy's restaurant ad, which don't even exist over here.

 

[Ansar]

Ive never even seen that thing you are talking about,.

Maybe its because I have a pop-up blocker?

 

[Turner]

It has nothing to do with a pop-up blocker, it's the forum ad at the top of the page. As was said earlier, this is a targeted ad to people in Europe. Us 'mericans didn't get to see it.

AHHH!!!!!
I found/hear another ad with sound. THose telefragged/ugo ads that seem to be 'errored' and has a scrolly thing. it makes a space age sound, that creeped me ou the first time i heard it!!

 

[Hygro]

I've never felt the need for ad blockers before, but the Crazy Frog was the last straw. I now have an ad blocker, so that one was completely counter productive. I'll never see another CFC ad again.

Yeah, ad companies need to learn not to go over the top, else that happens.


By the way, who the heck are you? How did you get 8000 posts, all after I joined, and attain moderatorhood without me seeing you before?

(I mean, I've SEEN you before but not like THIS)

I'm a little troglodyte who lives and moderates in the GOTM and Mac forums. I write strange incantations to help make the GOTM web site work, and my only contact with SF and OT and other strange worlds out here happens when an interesting thread topic pops up on my RSS radar scanner.

 

[Hygro]

You need to be in the CFC addicts corner more often--you use cool worlds like troglodyte.

There are plenty of civ-related subjects to spam about. But I have made a few guest appearances in some weird places as well
