Is really tired of the Droid does ads.

[Londonrockz568]

Chris... idk how adsense works but the add is everywhere on this forum.

Quite annoying.

[KabaModern]

I agree. Do I really need to look at an Anti-iPhone ad while in an iPhone forum?!

[chris]

If they want to pay my bills, I'm all for it.:ok:ok

[juls1585]

i dont ever see any ads when im at work

[aggieman]

they don't bother me. i rarely pay attention to the ads anyhow.

Besides, like Chris said, advertising $, no matter who it is from, takes care of the bills. If it helps with the continued improvement of EIC and helps to hire chris a maid to clean up that workspace of his, then I'm all for it.

[Eragon]

These ads are benign. What I really find annoying are the ads which require you to wait, and click close in order to get to a site. Other ads magically pop-up if you even dare move the mouse.

I don't believe we run those ads. If so, very rarely.

[Krunk83]

Those commercials kinda freak me out towards the end. Also, I know someone who works for apple and he said that there will never be mutliple apps running in the background of an iPhone because it slows down the speed of the phone. He told me to get a phone that does that if I want that feature. LOL. Also, who said I wanted a real keyboard?

I think it's funny that for years now, ever since the iPhone came out, that every new touch screen smart phone is the "iPhone killer" and not one even comes close. They are not iPhone killers anyways, they are iPhone followers!

[KabaModern]

Good point, Chris!

[TarekElsakka]

I haven't seen any Droid ads here. Those are all I see and not pay attention to.

Last time I checked, the ads you see are based on your browsing/searching history.

Also, I haven't seen any of the Droid ads on here but I see them a lot on TV and they are annoying.

[Youngbinks]

Yay for Safari AdBlock.

[chris]

Yay for Safari AdBlock.


Boooo....Booooo.

[Youngbinks]

Boooo....Booooo.

I actually disabled the AdBlock for EiC. It's enabled for nearly every other site I visit.

[psylichon]

Haha, nice attempt at a recovery there, Binky...

[TarekElsakka]

Based on IP, actually. I am pretty sure no one sees the Unlock i`phone Egypt ad, right?

[Youngbinks]

Haha, nice attempt at a recovery there, Binky...

Haha thanks. It actually is true though. I got semi-tired of not knowing to which ads people were referring.

[Krunk83]

My ads are always always for iPhone cases. Don't know why.

[chris]

I don't overload you guys either... some very popular sites are an assault on the senses.

When I was in Aruba, eiC showed "cheap calls from Aruba", so some are location based. Some are just from companies who buy ads on this and other sites -- they are not Google ads. I'm not sure where the iDon't ads are coming from -- might be both.

[evolution83]

I thought the ads displayed were based off certain keywords? I know the pizza thread has nothing but pizza ads in it.

i never see ads when im at work. only at home. probably some type of blocker

I have Safari Adblock, however i disabled it because many anime websites host their videos on MegaVideo.com. Not to mention i do watch other TV shows from various sites that someitmes happen to have an episode or so on Megavideo.

The site is so ****ing annoying, and if you should go there and try to watch something with an ad blocker on, the movie will tell you you need a new version of Flash.

It does this because, megavideo has some annoying flash based stand alone player. Say you want to watch Kill Bill. The video player loads up with a Red (>) play button. You click the play button and a huge pop up in a separate window with an ad comes up. You close this. Only to find another play (>) button in green that will actually start the movie.

The biggest pain in the ass is Megavideo has a time limit on videos. So, you're fullscreen'd and all into Kill Bill, then comes the scene where The Bride meets Gogo as gogo walks down the stairs uttering the famous HI!! and Bingo! Gogo starts swinging her Iron ball and chain and oh dear a message pops up stopping the video player. "You have watched 72 minutes of video from Megavideo.com. Please comeback again after 54 minutes to watch more from megavideo."

So yeah... lets not get ignorant about it.

you can disable it for specific sites, so you don't have to turn it off completely.

Last year on Monday night football the BROWNS beat them horrible. Im pretty sure it was the first monday night game of the season too ontop of it. Thats just sad.

theres no hope for the browns. they waste so much money on quinn. he is nothing but a pretty bench warmer. i was not happy when they got him. if anything im happy they are back to playing anderson, but hes no gem either. only few good people on the team are rogers, cribbs, and dawson (lmao our kicker who is the only one who actually scores points)

it's funny seeing browns fans say that about Quinn. Looks like ole Jerry actually made a good move getting 2 1st round picks out of Cleveland for the pick that Cleveland used to pick him. I actually do think Quinn can be a good QB, certainly better than DA, however with no receivers, crap running backs, and a very porous offensive line, there's not much any QB could do on that team. With the exception of the Rams, they are perhaps the least talented team in the league.

i think he could be a great quarterback...but hes done nothing the last what 2 years weve had him? i have a feeling hes going somewhere soon. he just put his house up for sale a few weeks ago. they needed more than just a new coach. im sick of seeing my bf depressed that they arent winning. every year i buy my dad and him football tickets for the game around new years and this year i think im gunna skip it because im pretty sure both have given up on hope this year. as my uncle said last week they couldnt even score at 2 and goal....

thank god i like the chargers!

And soccer is a truly great sport, Naps. It's the most successful sport, and let's not compare it to American Football when it comes to fame and success. And if you're going to say that American Football is dominant because it is brutal, well, youtube and search for Soccer Injuries, they are probably worse because the players are not protected. Soccer is the best sport and Manchester United is a great team.

Did you really say American football is about fame and success? You do realize futbols top players make damn good money through contracts and endorsements? Hypocrisy at it's best I suppose. Before you start mudslingig a sport at least get your facts right. I just don't understand the hostility futbol fans have towards other sports. Just because it is the most popular or you grew up on it, doesn't make it the best. Some of the fastest growing sports are american created sports, just something for you to think about. One more tidbit of news, the NFL is the top grossing league in the world. That is without the backing of a global community. They must be doing something right.

That immensely incorrect statement made me LMAO!!

American football comes from Rugby. Rugby started in the UK. With its roots stemming from Greece.

Modern Tennis started in the UK. Roots stemming from France. Henry VIII played early Tennis.

Soccer/futból started in the UK. Roots stemming from Rome variations and Chinese variations of the game.

Cricket started in the UK. 16th century Tudor times to be exact.

Golf is said to be started in Scotland but no one really knows.

Ice Hockey is Canadian. With a similar variation called Bandy from Russia.



As you so incorrectly and arrogantly put it... Just something for you to think about. Make sure to take notes, you have just been schooled.
Volleyball, Lacrosse, BasketBall amongst a few others are American originating sports.
