Justin and crew, please get rid of the pop-over Circuit City ads. If they continue I will have to stop frequenting the forum as they ruin my "user experience"

It should be obvious that there is a reason those ads are here in the first place.
The ad rotator chooses the ads, not a human.

And they are freaking annoying sometimes too. Like when they pop down along the screen. He is not the first person to complain about them but, they pay the bills I suppose.

Sorry, no remorse. Couldn't read your post for a moment. There was a circuit city ad over it. :asshat:

And when I tried to click "Submit" I got sent to Firedog.com.

Code, I understand that they are based on my internet history, and that they are not under human control, but if someone could tell the ad provider to stop the pop-over ads, I think it would help. I'm not against advertising, just intrusive ads, and the pop-overs are intrusive.

Just do like I do, everytime one pops up I run out to the garage and grab a brick. Then hop in the pickup and run to the nearest circuit city and toss it through there window. I think they will figure it out sooner or later.
