PLEDGE A DONATION!!!!

Post by SpPANDA » Fri Jan 17, 2003 5:46 pm

anyone else get pissed off seeing a little pop up banner everywhere?

maybe not EVERYwhere, but damn near EVERYwhere...

i tried to directly download something... and the effing thing pops up and there was no way to close it.

super search and you have to 'proceed' EVERY effign time.

No. I don't know what it looks like. I donated already so it's turned off for me.

Hey SpPANDA,

Don't worry. The ads will be removed eventually. They will be removed when one of following occurr:

1) The Donut is paid for the year.

or

2) You make a pledge to the site.

So, you can either depend on everyone else to clear up the ad for you or you can take the effort to clear them up yourself. ^_^

Phade.

Hey,

Actually, the rate at which people pledge and donate more than doubled when I put the ads up. Seems that some people weren't reading the forum and/or member main page and just going strait to the search/download section. All the people who have donated so far have expressed their gratitude for the site and what it is doing to make things better.

I understand why you're doing the popup, Phade, but it caused me one problem I'm not sure you anticipated. I tried to download my vid at a friend's house to show it to them, and when I clicked proceed, it attempted to stream the video.

It would be better to have "proceed" simply close the window, IMO, as it may cause trouble for some members with their hosts if too many people just ignorantly stream videos.

For now, I'm changing my linking to indirect, to avoid any problems.
