adverting banner

can you keep it so they quit dropping down while im trying to read ****? I know the advertising is all this site has turned into... but you'd think you'd want to encourage people to come here, not discourage. It is annoying as F$%^

Is this a mouse-over ad, where you mouse over the ad and it activates? Or does it automatically expand on its own? If possible, please provide a screen capture of the offending ad.

Ya mouse over. Is there really a need for them? I cant take a screen shot because the ads constantly change, who knows when it will pop up again.

Mouse over ads suck. No other way around it. And there is no excuse for them at any decent website

Just did it again while im trying to type ****... ANNOYING!

It is some "Yiayia Athenus Humus" stuff???? Looks like some food with an old middle eastern woman on it.

Whos the marketing master behind that? Like watching the Dukes of Hazard the other week and a commercial came on that said "brought to you by Vagacil". No one reading this site or watching that show wants to see stupid ads like that.
