Karawasa Posted August 4, 2009 You may have noticed that the banner ad at the top and the link ads at the bottom are now missing. In place of them I am trying out in-text advertising. I hope this will be less intrusive and reduce the amount of scrolling needed. Go to top Share this post Link to post

Karawasa Posted August 7, 2009 The advertising would double underline certain keywords and when you mouse over them you get an ad. I've found that not only did these ads annoy me after sometime, but they also seemed to increase the loading time of the pages. I have done away with them and returned the top banner ad. The bottom link ads will not be coming back. Go to top Share this post Link to post
Karawasa Posted August 21, 2009 We discovered (props meateor) that the video ads were the source of "scroll lag" while designing the new site (coming soon!). To this end, I have removed them from the forums and replaced them with a standard banner. Go to top Share this post Link to post
