Come on,
If were going to do ads can we make them more related to the site.

I rather liked the one with the boobs. Financial services contained no boob and was therefore somewhat more boring.

Facetiousness aside, +1 to this.

White Teeth now, earn 56£ per hour, no experience required, you are the 1 millionth visitor...

I have to agree, if we already have ads, could we at least have intel or corsair ones (just for example)?

[m411b]

Hit the little arrow in the top right of the ad and the ad will disappear!

[SoulsCollective]

Not the ones at the top.

[BenchZowner]

That boxing e must die.
I don't care about ads as long as they're not in-between our posts and they're not making any annoying sounds/effects/etc.

[Splave]

ive only ever seen crucial ones

Flash block + Ad Blocker = win.

I bet many people wil be more then happy to pay a bit (more) to have them gone, i do mis me old XS

[Vapor]

I don't see any anywhere (other than the Crucial and Gigabyte ones)

I've tried a lot of browsers too

Anyway, hopefully FUGGER can set it so that people who are logged in don't see them

[loonym]

The only thing I see is one banner for crucial up top. I don't see the big deal, it seems very non-intrusive to me.

edit: ahhh, just spotted another, for gigabyte, at the very bottom. Still seems like a non-issue.

[Vapor]

Alright, I just checked all my computers on my network and none show anything (logged in or out).

Maybe OpenDNS is blocking ads for me?

[naokaji]

At home the ones at the top are gone, just the one on the right and the one at the bottom left, I'll check tomorrow at work if I still get the weird ones from scammers at the top.

firefox portable ftw, when you set it up, make it copy proxy settings from IE (even if you cant access them firefox will) then add the mods (use google how to add them) never failed me once

[Viss]

Logged in and won

[Gautam]

At first glance, it seems like in the US, it's only Crucial, and elsewhere it can be anything.

[zalbard]

Using Firefox 3.5 with NoScript and AdBlock Plus, I see no adds, at all... But yeah, +1 for having PC related ads at least, if we absolutely have to add those.

[chispy]

Gautam , you are 100% correct , i get them in spanish sometimes , also thers one loud one saying i won 10,000 dollars lol flashing and taking all the upper screen lol.

heres a few examples of what i see when i log into XS , i refresh my browser 5 times and it changes every time to a different pop up.
I dont mind at all , but the screamer one saying im a winner its not healty for my ears









I dont get no crucial adds , me wants crucial adds instead of those weird ones :/

[radaja]

yea im not seeing any except for the crucial ad.
but i wish fugger would fix the problem with the page
either being to small or too big.make browsing through
the pages a pain.

[Brian y.]

I don't even see crucial or gigabyte ads.......

[s0lid]

I don't see any ads anymore
ABP <3

[WhiteFireDragon]

firefox adblock FTW. never noticed any, and didn't know they existed in these complaint threads come up

[SoulsCollective]

I could block the ads, but seeing as I don't pay for a membership here I figure the least I can do is view the ads that Fugger puts up to pay for this great site, thus generating hits and making money.

I see some ads from ad.yadelmarg and others ( the ones with click here to claim and such). These are really annoying and have NO place on XS. I appreciate ads from PC parts manufacturers because they benefit from this forum.
