what's the go with these new ads?

you betcha

well in that case i need to do more clicking

Talking of subscriptions

I have no idea why mine no longer says I subscribe. my sub doesn't end until the 27th May....

Dave do you know why it has disappeared from under my name?

Its not a big deal as I'm going to renew in 3 days anyway..however I would hate for people to think I dont support the site when I have been a silver subscriber for the last 2 years

fixed

Well, how about for a start, we just start asking everyone to click on the adverts everytime you load a new page ... 3 clicks, send them to the background, keep AULRO'ing, and when the 3x pages have loaded in the background, close 'em! ?? :D

:wasntme:

Kev.. :cool:

You've got no idea how bad these ads are with dial-up speeds (like I currently have!).

I feel like throwing the monitor at the wall.

That tends to have undesirable side effects. :(

<p>I've now switched the display mode to MobiPDA to change to a text-based rather than a GUI screen whilst I'm limited to 64kbps. That helps speed things up enormously (with no images).</p>

I subscribe - I get an enourmous amount of benefit from this site - as soon as I worked this out I subscribed.

The ads are not that bad and some of them contain some good info. I tend to look at the ones that incite some interest - perfect advertising really.

They are nowhere near as invasive as some on the commercial newspaper sites: theage.com.au seems to have video ads that you cannot avoid (unless you avoid the site itself which I am now doing).
