Ads are pissing me off



Now I understand that this is a free board to its members, and that it costs money to run something like this place, but the ads imbedded in the text of posts are PISSING ME THE **** OFF. I move my mouse across one, and a video started to load. WTF? Worst form of advertising on the planet.

Concur. Charge membership fees if needed to change the user subtitle or something, but the ads have to go.

Did that way back when the intellitext thing was first added. I was wondering what everyone was griping about. I guess I had forgot all about those annoying green links from hell.......
