Are the Google ads a permanent change?

 

i sure the hell hope not. the vendors had it better when all of them was listed

 

I agree, and is why I ask, aside from detracting from the overall appearance of the site and making some annoying sounds while each page loads...

 

plus, it is causing me to click my back page arrow multiple time. just to gp back one page, because it seems that there are a ton of pop-ups all of the sudden?

 

well it didint do it that time, but it took forever to backpage one page

I'm not a big fan of it either. I was wondering why it loaded different. It asked me if I wanted to remember my password again which I thought was odd. I think that might have been something I did.

 

Likes like crap. Make it go away

 

ok..i got lucky the last time.............this sucks. i cant even go back one page! i have to pull down my recent page screen to go back one page, because of the ad/doubleclick crap.... ring..........ring.............. any help?

 

I'm wondering if this is due to the change in ownership that happened last year...

 

i bet alot of vendors are not going to be happy. since only about 1/4 of them are showing. it still seems that they rotate, but its not ad good as it was

 

Looks like they made the change and went home for the evening...I used to do the same **** at my last job No wonder I had so many nasty-grams in the morning

 

i believe your right!!!

 

I'm not a fan of those Google ads either, but the reality is that they can potentially generate over $100,000/year in advertising revenue on a site this active.

When we found out that stagging figure, we really couldn't argue over cosmetics. Since we no longer own the site, it wasn't our decision if they stay or go.

The normal sponsor buttons will actually be easier to navigate now, since they do not go way past the bottom of the page, and each of them still randomly shows up with each mouse click. We found that only first few actually caught anyone's attention anyways, since that column was so long.

 

Kinda figured it was profit-driven...can't argue with those numbers either. I definitely liked it better the old way...I'll see if I can get used to it.

 

You will have to get used to it, since they probably won't ever be removed. Hell, had we known they could generate six figures of revenue when we still ran the site, they probably would have been put up sooner

 

why the multi click back button tho?? that sucks. i had to press it 4-5 times right now i thought it was movig but it said done in the corner sucks.

 

what about the back page issue? if you look at the bottom of the page. it actually counts down to around 14 i believe before it goes back

 

One-click-back for me... :shrug:

 

it does for me also, but at dialup speed?
