could the mods pm you

[Agathon]

You have to remember that my job is media... and surfing the net for what's new and hot is part of my job.

Alright, what's new and hot? I'm old and cold, I could do with some advice.

[Ming]

What's hot is the "search" category... but since creative applications are pretty much limited to text and links, the really hot stuff is IMU's... which are basically square banners imbedded in text areas vs your traditional banners and skyscrapers bordering the edges.

What's hot is the "search" category...

You mean like Google and stuff?

[Ming]

Yep... Google and Overture are just racking up the money. It is the most effective and efficient of all internet advertising space at the moment. Spending in search vehicles is doubling every week... Eventually, demand will outstrip supply, and the numbers should start to balance again... but search, Google in particular, is just HOT!

[Agathon]

Interesting. I use GMail all the time.

I don't mind Google's ads as they are unobtrusive. I really hate the Flash stuff though.

I hate getting pm's. Because most of mine are from mods who tell me I've ****ed up and are threatening to ban me or PCR me.

No one ever PM's me except the mods who do when I screw up . I have no friends.

*diss runs off crying*

So whenever I get a message that I have a PM my stomach cringes, because I fear that message is from a moderator telling me I have a PCR or ban. Imagine my surprise when somone other than a mod PM'd me a couple days ago!

On the other hand, I usually don't respond to PMs saying things like"I'm going to kill your family" or "You suck".

At one point, somebody set up a hate site against me where they discussed tracking me down so they could get me fired from my job... blah blah blah...

Gosh, saying, "You suck" seems a little over the top, don't you think?

Back on topic, I've been on forums where the search feature couldn't find its own arse with both hands. 'Poly search isn't that bad, but it doesn't find stuff it should be easily finding.

Repent!!

So when will marketeers realise that net adds aren't effective? No, they probably are effective then if they still exist... but I wouldn't think they are as effective as advertisers would want them to be. At least they're easy to ignore .

[rah]

You just think your ignoring them.

No that's a Morley, and I don't see much ads for those .

Good, I was afraid that it was a Virginia Slims.

I agree with Kuci. I'd like to know when my posts or threads are deleted or closed.
Also, it'd mean more points for You in my post stats, and You may get the Froggish Fleece of Honour thanks to i!
