Exclamation What's with the pop-ups?

Every other time I log onto Newdoom forums I get these bloody pop up windows for advertising.

Anybody else?

Yes I get them to, I much prefer the java banner ads over pop-ups. I hate the ones that multiply as you close them....That is Really irratating!

Hey Loon, yeah it's like you never know when the spam trap is gonna go off. Just part of the advertising game though. Log on to MSN!

Actually, these are pop-unders, so they're not really as annoying as they could be.
But I didn't know they were going to spawn when you close them.
But they're just on the main site gateways, and once they cookie you, they only appear once per 24 hour period.
This is my advertising solution for right now, until we get ad banners going again (which I know you guys are just WAITING to click-click-clickity click, again! , so I appreciate your understanding!

I suppose.

But any advertiser that sinks to useing pop ups must be insane. Pop ups just bug people and I can't imagine anyone buying from a site that uses pop up banners.

Still, they are paying for our pages. Which has to be a good thing

WMULL BAAAAAAD!!!!

At least you were nice enough to plaster them UNDER the main window, which is decent. They really bog down load times a bit, though.
