    Ditch the ActiveX-virus type thing on your popup. What do you take us for, idiots?

    And why do they pop up in a little "hidden" window? Do they track what we're visiting and report it back to home base?

    Why does Apolyton's popups want to install "Movie Networks Direct" by "Great Net, Inc" on my computer.

    GRRRRR.

    Pop-ups don't bother me anymore, since I turned off every single freaking dumb-ass java, javascript and Active X option I could find.

    My surfing experience is much more enjoyable, now.

    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

        Fine then, I'll just squelch your damned popups if you're going to be an ass about them.

        Two can play at this game.

        And you know what? I bet everyone else will squelch them too. Figure it out.

          I think I might just switch back to normal style.

            How come I never get any pop-ups?

            Is it because I jump straight to forums and not the front page?

              Maybe also because you don't have your style sheet set to special. You can choose to have 2 ads on each page or one, and a popup on the main page.

                  1) Bookmark Poly on any forum (not main forum index);
                  2) Use the (farked up) pull-down menu

                  ...and you'll be fine

                      Asher,

                      since you find the pop-ups horrible, i took the liberty to switch your style to the (non-special) default.

                        And I took the liberty of turning on an ad-blocker. Don't **** with my settings.

                          Code:

                            I don't have a problem with popups, I have a problem with the virus-style ActiveX that your popups want me to install. I was fine with regular popups, but when they start wanting to put unknown programs on my computer I get REALLY pissed off. It also had a tendancy to launch a "hidden" popup, doing God knows what.

                            Put up NORMAL popups, not this warez/porn-site style popup. Christ Mark...

                              it's good that you're starting to discuss instead of shout.

                              again, we do our best to find the... gentlier ads there out there. for the time that they exist on this site, if you have a problem with the specific pop-up you can always not use the special style.

                              beyond that, objection noted, but please drop the hysteria
