    Lensman, Webcamcash , Jesus Christ

    WTF we are "where the industry meets" but we cant figure out how to set flash ads by cookie ?? Theres is NO reason to display it on every refresh, makes no sense unless your trying to get people to HATE webcamcash or something.

    Im going to be brutally honest, I LOVED THE WEBCAMCASH flash overlay ad. Its great. BUT i have seen it 5 zillion times already and now i fucking HATE IT. I LOVE THE DESIGN, i dont like the fact you made the close button show up after the ad is displayed.

    Anyways its just my but i really dont see how turning something i initially LOVED into something i now hate is a good thing..

    You had to see it that many times to make up for the impressions lost by 90% of the rest of us using Firefox.

    Spend you some brain.

                    haven't seen it 1 time, must be IE users only
                    SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                        For those people gloating firefox. you should note that I LIKED THE FLASH AD . If i was on firefox i wouldn't have seen it.. I like seeing flash ads on gfy. Im not going to downgrade my service to avoid poor business practise of my favourite forum

                                with cookies you could set this ad however you want , every hour , once a day etc.. every ten views etc etc and it doesnt take a genious to figure it out either, my daughter could do that in her sleep.

                                  If you can pay more than webcamcash, i am sure Lensman will think about.

                                    i see it every time i close and reopen browser, but not every time i refresh. so if i go back and refresh now it won't show, but if i close gfy and come back in an hour it will. annoying, but i think your cookies are fucked up if you see it every time.

                                      Had to open up IE to see it.

                                      Can definitely see how that would be annoying after the first time.

                                                  It wasn't directed at just lensman. I'm just saying in my opinion its not good business practise thats all. Lensman and webcamcash may have a completely different opinion, thats cool too.

                                                    I like seeing flash ads on gfy. Im not going to downgrade my service to avoid poor business practise of my favourite forum

                                                    I have my own gfy browser that shows no ads and no flash its a standalone program that sists quietly on your desktop , but thats not the point. I like the ads , its a usefull part of gfy.

                                                      Actually - ad on every refresh + no cookie + no immediate close button = badwill

                                                        I've never seen that add...

                                                        Is it because of Firefox?
                                                        I'm just a newbie.

                                                            It is fucking annoying. I get it once per browser session, so I still get it roughly 10 times per day. The sound is also VERY annoying when I have my headphones on.

                                                            LENS - Enforce some policies on flash overlay ads (i.e. no sound and pre-load close button).

                                                            WEBCAMCASH - Learn to use cookies and take a course in usability.

                                                            Also, I hope webcamcash is aware of the fact that a large % of GFYers use firefox and therefore do not even see the overlay. IMHO, a board skin would yield a higher rate of return as everybody can see it.

                                                            Mostly good advice , i will tell you a few things you might miss..

                                                            If its brings controversy all those firefox users will at least open i.e. to see it right.. so i'm sure almost everyone see's the ad, even on gfy firefox users make up a small minority anyways..

                                                            Lens did enforce the rules on all flash ads in the top , but the overlays are special so they dont have to follow the rules. * but bluewire could have made the exit button open on the first frame not on the last frame too. ( still a bit of a hassle but not a huge deal )

                                                            I dont think webcam cash had a choice because the cookie setting would likely want to be done by gfy so as not to conflict , but they could have easily asked for it to be done this way.

The close link after it fully plays is just stupid, and then the fucking close button it is not completely linked, you must click literally the O in closed.

                                                                          Its all up to personal opinion but of the 100 sites i visit most regularly . Firefox cant view them properly and i.e. can so... its a downgrade any way you look at it for me anyways.

                                                                                            However it doesn't pop EVERY time for me. Maybe just a few times a day. It wasn't supposed to pop every time and if it does for you then I apologize.

                                                                                            A few people are complaining that it is popping every time. This is something that GFY will need to address for the future. ... Lensman are you reading this?
