    And, of course, others of us like to actually play FFR from time to time.

    ps I made a thread about this in the Garbage Bin. It didn't get hardly any attention

      yeah you just pick the united states filter and pretty much everything disappears. And if something gets through you can block it manually.

        There actually is an ad that contains adware.. I believe that it is the cursor related advertisement. I read about it and upon download, it will keep advertising on your computer. Please... remove these things!

          I'm sure Synth doesn't like blocking the ads and his money being taken away, or rather, being forced to spend his own money, but I'm sure the problem is obvious.



          That crap needs to stop or I'm blocking the ads with that Ad Block thing :/ I'll gladly unblock them as long as I don't have to hear something annoying just for moving my mouse over something.

            Sir, I say sir, that browser is clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing.

            Btw: It's not ads in general, if I remember reading it (a long while ago) right. Just point out the ads that are obviously annoying to the point where you can't even take coming here anymore. I can vouch for that annoying 'WHOOOOOOOM ZOOOOP (whatever sound)' smilies ad. Wasn't there already a thread or 1,593 on this very subject?

                I'd have to agree the sound ads are annoying. I doubt there's anything they can do about it though. Synth needs the money so unless you'd rather not have FFR then suck it up and listen to the annoying sounds of the ads :P

                  But when ads come with SOUND before you even CLICK ON THEM, well, come on now. I hate that crap. I know other people agree with me on this one because someone actually IMed me about it a little after I got annoyed by it.

                  Specifically, I'm talking about the ad with smilies/emotes/whatever the hell they're called on it. They need to go. Make the ads bigger, etc. and whatever makes you more money, but get rid of the sounds.

                  Also, we wouldn't have to do all of this sound advertisement stuff if we could donate.
                  yea, every time im not playing this, im playing naruto arena, and there is this one ad called Zap the mosquito! the thing buzzes like crazy, it really annoys anyone after a while.

                    I've brought up other ideas to make money, but instead, he apparently switched to sound ads. I just block every ad now anyway, and that can't be great for the money.

                    He also ignored my idea to make the buttons bigger again and instead made them even smaller(I think). It's fair to say that I'm not going to continue making suggestions.
