Rollover ads

Fix'd

I honestly don't mind them cause I just avoid rolling over them, so they're not really a big deal to me. And they'll bring in money to FFR.

You could always just block resultlinks.com, if you must. Quite frankly, I didn't mind the banner ads, but this is a bit much.

Re: Rollover ads

As I said before, I wasn't getting them when Synth was testing them on everyone and I don't get them now.

Something on my FF3 is stopping me seeing them all.

Though as I also said, whatever helps FFR get some short-term revenue. They won't be around forever, only until Synth can get a long-term financial solution that doesn't involve ads everywhere.

Re: Rollover ads

the problem with these is that even if you don't roll over them you still get lag from them being present in the first place

Are you using Adblock? I didn't see them until I uninstalled it and then they started popping up.

Re: Rollover ads

As much as I dislike test ads, these are not bad compared to some sites that have them on nearly every word.

I know tass is against them in the forums, but I think it's a wise move to keep them here. Much more profitable here than on a static page. I also think they should stay on profiles. There's no point in having them if they are just going to be buried away.

Re: Rollover ads

Take them off the forums but in return increase their frequency on the profiles by 100%. Let the myspace crowd enjoy their plague of adverts and revel in their 258 friends each advertising 15 individual companies.

This. Plus, the short-term revenue is great, but hopefully it will not last long.

Re: Rollover ads

These make people lag more? Somehow I'm not buying that.

I actually prefer these to Flash ads because they don't generate lag whereas flash ads can and do.

I would even go so far as to say that if you are experiencing lag because of these new advertisements that you weren't experiencing with flash ads, that it isn't because of the advertisements at all but, rather, you should get your computer checked for spyware.

As far as I am aware, these are not flash ads. They are Javascript popup, correct?

It really should produce far less lag I would think, being that Flash has a much greater overhead than Javascript.

And if the Flash ads bother you too much, buy a subscription, win a subscription, or gather enough credits and transfer them to someone willing to buy you one.

I really don't think subscribers should even be getting these context ads, but supposedly it is in somewhat of a testing phase right now and not permanent and they will be removed for subscribers shortly is my understanding?

Re: Rollover ads

I agree with UserName, but my main problem is them being in the forums.

It's pretty annoying to type something or read something and then get attacked by "THIS WORD LINKS TO SOMETHING COMPLETLY UNRELATED BECAUSE WE'RE SEARCHING UP THE WORD OUT OF CONTEXT!!!!!"

So, yeah.

Re: Rollover ads

I understand that. I also see that you are a subscriber so theoretically should not be getting ads. So it probably shouldn't be a problem shortly for you (and me) I'm guessing?

I mean they do need to make money. Being a subscriber though is supposed to support the site since most subscribers paid money for it. So in exchange subscribers aren't supposed to get ads. I do think just wait it out a bit since you're a subscriber.
