Hello guys,
We have added a new ad serving engine for LF.
feel free to share your thought about the new ad engine.
It's horrible. Had to turn my sound off because it kept telling me I had mail. And the hyperlinked words are so distracting. Will be having second thoughts about the site if it stays.
hm, I don't see the same things B&T does, I only see the ad bar at the top. No hyperlinks or "you've got mail" for me.
What browser are you using Basil?
i saw tour company ad on my side..
It's awful. The flashing ad at the top makes my eyes hurt... I've logged off the site a couple of times because of it - it's actually driving traffic away.
Advertising is inevitable but if it is distracting, over baring, and all over the place, you will loose people. This is what happened to the last site I was on. It's a dead site now, we had all left within months of it starting, and I'm afraid if not done carefully it will happen to this site.
BTW I miss the latest posts on the side...I used that a lot.
Come to think of it the same thing has happened to this other site that I moderate. They tried selling it because it wasn't getting the traffic anymore. Just too many ads.
I hope there won't be too many changes because I myself don't like change lol.
I love the new ads. Keep up the good work LA.
Me too!Quote:

Cool story bro. :DQuote:

I don't mind ads as long as they are NOT placed between each post. If you keep them to the top of the thread then that would be okay, IMO.
I'm using IE. Can't remember which version, but it's a current oneQuote:

The hyperlinked words in posts went away almost as soon as I mentioned it. Don't know what was going on there.
The 'you've got mail' thing was one of the new ads at the top of the page. All flashing and blinking and talking to me. Yuck
Is the 'new posts' option broken or disabled? I didn't realise how much I used it till now.
Possibly related to the ad engine or not, but lately clicking on Latest Post in a thread doesn't actually take one to the end of the thread and the latest post.
Unless you go clear your cache, then it works.Quote:

google chrome or even mozilla firefox is a better choice nowadays.
:D
L.A. just owned Imma.
Do what you gotta to make this place profitable, LA. Perhaps the regulars should make a financial contribution to the forum?
i might hire some business developer personnel to source for dating, relationship agency in each country..they might be interested to advertise online. :D
For me it wasn't so much that he was trying to create a revenue stream, but the nature OF the stream - one advertisement in particular was annoying as hell.Quote:

Eh, not really what I was going for.Quote:

Anytime I read something LA writes, I hear it in this horrible Chinese accent. "shutup, you imma!" totally reminded me of that screaming Asian dude.
Oh god, I hate you for this. 'Wei... wei... ?' Average wrong number here in Hongcouver. Every future post of LA has been ruined, lol.Quote:

i have remove the ads.
Maybe we will switch to donation for support. :)
It's a tough call because people like free :)
I'll donate a twenty if you ban all the canadians and jews(not vashti), and LovesReject.Quote:

$20 for banning the maple-worshipers and the kikes (sans vashti); $40 with vashti.
lol harsh man. I know vash has pretty much lost it lately, but we both know she isnt a real jew. Also, her daughter thinks canada is boring as ****, so an extra 20 to include vash is a waste. I'd much rather stick another 20 in to get the wife beater out the picture, or the bodybuilding pic requester.Quote:

You couldn't live without me. Without my hilarious virgin antics, you'd be reminded of your mundane,cat-walking life.Quote:

Nothing mundane about walking a cat in this city. It's like a jungle out there. It's funny you think I couldnt find someone else to annoy if you were banned. The internet is full of knob jockeys to annoy.Quote:

Lol, nah dawg.
i don't see any ads on my pc. they are annoying on my phone though. my phone loads this site so sloooooooooow anyway though. so it already sucks. the ads just increase the annoyance, frustration, and ultimate refusal to visit this site that way.
but on the pc it's cool. ad block has been working thus far.
I've noticed some forums give status to some members as 'forum supporters'. You could set up a PayPal and do this, LA.

Yeah, that's it, LA. Install some pre-written plugin, like a little bitch.Quote:
