just a pet peeve of mine...
ads are fine and i understand that they are the major source of income for these kind of sites. Banner ads are ok and i can deal with popups (or my popup blocker can) but i cannot for the life of me stand the talking ads. Every page i click i get something like "congratulations, you have been selected to recieve 2 free ipod nanos". I wouldn't mind if it was only on the main page, but its on every single page on the main site! I just gets kind of annoying. I still love simV and always will.

Why don't you just turn your speakers off if it annoys you so?

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I like to listen to music while I'm on the internet sometimes, and turning my speakers of makes that incredibly difficult. Wink

I think I've won 286 IPod Nanos now, I wonder when I'll be getting them....

No response audio ads (ones that sound without clicking) are a no no.

I shall try to track this down & eliminate it. Smiley

It can take 50K ads before anyone mentions these. I personally haven't had an audio ad since the last time I deleted one many months ago.

Apologies for the irritation!!

Think Global. It's the world we live in.
