      I thought we would only be getting 1 every 6 hours not every 40 minutes.

              A few seconds. But it's severly annoying. Especially when my wife comes in and sees an add for "horny goat weed" and thinks I'm surfing on porn sites.

              Also, I use IE as my browser. Sometimes if too many windows open, IE crashes or worse: The entire OS collapses.

              (Just some last ditch arguements......)

                I have yet to experience this IE bug you mention Tassadar. How many windows does it take. (I have had 310 apolyton threads open at once!)

                  It only takes a few IE windows to crash my computer.....But netscape is too slow for my tastes, so I stick with IE.

                    I'll just say that it takes me 2 seconds to close one, out of the one browser I have open and active.

                    In the mean time, Mark and Dan earn a 10th of a cent and help pay for this free site that knocks the nutz off of any other civ site.

                    Sorry. Just my opinion.

                      Awe.......Such a rousing speech. Now I feel like clicking some ads.

                      In all seriousness, you do have a point. Without ads, Apolyton wouldn't be free. I remember how frustrated I was when Gamespot and IGN suddenly began locking all their content....But that's a completly different topic.

                        Tass. They get income from the pop up. You don't have to click on anything other than close.

                        It's different from banners.

                        I asked.

                          Although I wasn't limiting it to just popups......Thats an interesting little fact to know.

                          What made you ask?

                            Mark asked if we would mind more pop ups... or less banners... or something like that.
