Ok seriously, the ads aren't that bad - Click HERE for Original Thread

DoubleDown
Honestly, it's way more annoying to read "ADS FTL FGTS KTHX READ BELOW" than to just ignore the ad and read the post. Why go through the trouble? Just ignore it...

I have no vested interest in this site either, btw. Yes the ads are annoying, yes the useless first post is even more annoying than the ad.

REFLUX
I think people are just post whores who want to up their count.

Maybe we should start docking numbers for those who do the "Read Below" first post?
ahhahaha

Either way its gay. I just hate typing out a paragraph or two when starting a thread, and its all typed within like 2 inches of space to the far left. Its homosexual.

HAHA the stamp is back :lol:

The ads are gay but the "ads gay read below" is even gayer.

Invalid Zero
No. The ads are super gay. Like even more gay that Fadi. LOL:blue:

I see it merely as a form of PROTEST. And really its all we have at this time. How else can we tell the "powers that be" that:
- the ads suck
- we don't like them
- please make them stop
??

:dunno:

Kinda the same reason why I don't sign my name 'Chris xxxxx, Enjoy McDonalds Fries Today!' at the bottom of things I write with a pen. :D

Oh well, what can we do. Site has to make money. We should change the first post to a full ad instead of a half ad, and this won't be an issue!

also, twice the revenue potential..

Dunno how I have my browser setup but I haven't seen a single one yet.

They're annoying to no end. No other board I've ever been on stoops to that.

Krall
Gonna go buy a chocolate bar.

Also, ads fuck.. the only time I notice them is when people post about them! I don't notice the f'n ads, after reading the first post here, I had to go back up and look "Was there an ad on this one!?"

PS it's extra gay that you have an ad in your post. LOL

flatboy

Though I deserved it for making a ha ha remark 1 minute after REFLUX had it in his cross hairs.

Why don't you people just use an ad blocker or something? Firefox FTW!:)

Everyone who hates the adds should be banned.

well then ban me right off the interweb! 'cause I hate them "adds" almost as much as I hate Advertisements

Fazda
sure the ads are gay, if i could avoid having an add in my post i would, but who else is gonna pay for this site to run, just live with the gay ads, there is nothing u can go.

How about the 16 site sponsors who pay a couple hundred bucks a year?

Fazda
well the ad's probably take a load off of what they need to pay to keep this site running. Im sure they dont just put them up there for fun. These ad's arn't the end of the world.

red88.n/a.rx
Who knows what they have to pay too keep this site running either way why give a shit if there are ads.

Definitly agree that posting about the ads being gay first is way more annoying than looking at them.

The only thing worse than the ads is making a thread about how much they dont suck :limpwrist :D

So what if 780 is making money off of you?

anyone care to total up the bandwidth needed, the cost of running a forum .
how much does each sponsor have to pay a month??

and how much revenue comes in for those ads? Then do some + and - to figure out if its that much more profitable for 780.

if it breaks even, we all shut up.

if there making money off of it, i'll be ready to start a new forum under an alias called JDM and USDM 1980's to now Compact sports cars forum of Alberta North

I run a board.. actaully I run a board and host a couple others... I run it on my own server, no sponsors, no ads.... :P

Now if 780 is on a co-located server.. I can see how that can cost some $$$... I had my server in a co-locate for a week and wow...that got extra pricey fast..

Strange, I just tried Explorer for shits and giggles and still no ads.

Maybe it's some sort of malware?

fugumerkur
with the ads and the content, I would say this board doesn't fit up there with Quality in my books.!

but then again, im probably one of the least respected member on here!
