Clickbait Ads

[MG porting]

Are they anywhere else besides the bottom of the screen?

Not for me just the bottom right corner but it's a big pain when you're typing then it blocks off a good amount of wat your typing which makes it difficult to see how much mistakes you make on your spelling which is not good for me can't spell worth a darn. Lol

I’m on my phone, no ads except the bottom. They don’t interfere with anything. If they cover part of your screen while using the site I’d agree that they need to go.

They keep popping up on the right side of my screen, very annoying, glad they will stop.

I just use the pop up blocker and adware blocker on iPhone and they disappeared!

I don't like pop up ads (although as I write this one big one just popped up dammit!) they slow the page, get in the way & are just annoying. But I get this place is not just a service to us, its a business that needs to generate income for its survival. That's a juggling act for sure but we get the feeling one of 'us' is in our corner fighting for what we like about the place & gibs a chit. Thanks monkey-boss-man!

I'll pay $30 a year as a paid membership to ope Randy. You could make the forum add free for those that run the paid membership.

You can do membership in bronze(30), silver(60), and gold(90), and maybe every so often offer a lifetime membership to individuals you see fit. Give us members forum privileges that only paid members have.

And of course those that don't want to pay membership view as it is now.

I don't know what that means, cats are dog food in my world.

I'm still disappointed that none of the pop ups ever showed any titty pics mang.

 

[sgrizz]

these are very annoying even for a person like me that likes to read on here and doesn't post much. thank you

 

[Stihl working Hard]

It was getting pretty depressing there for a while

 

[XP_Slinger]

The big bossman just sent me a text. The ads will be removed asap.

Glory !!!!!

Thanks Paw Paw, they’ve gotten bad.

I feel lucky enough that the pop up video doesn't play women moaning sounds.

 

[trooney]

If there werent so many of them I probably wouldnt mind but you click off one and another shows up...very annoying...

 

[LOMartin]

Don't mess with that McDonalds guy.

The bottom ads don't get in the way at all. the side panel pop out does. It blocks the type box.

Aaaannnnnndddddddddd they are outta here!!!!!!

Yay!!

I second @mettee for “memberships”. I think $10 a year is a more feasible price. The information shared here is invaluable and worth much, much more. But, a higher ‘fee’ can and will drive off contributing members. I try to do the majority of my parts shopping through site sponsors, which will continue regardless of a membership. I don’t know what a website like this actually costs to build, manage and maintain; so I can’t speak to the required income to support it. I would love it to continue as a free site, but it is obvious that the site owner requires more site income to keep it up. Catch 22 I suppose.

Attracting new members with a paid fee would be hard to do. Too many other places that are free....

What is doable is to attract more site sponsors. That just takes time....
