          This is not about the program its about the banner its self and wether or not it works as far as getting sign ups, or is just Fucking annoying???...

          After all there are better ways to get people to signup especiually for a leading program, than to annoy the fuck put of 'em

            I like the banner, but Joel's face is too pretty to hit.

                Nope, never would. I consider the banner to be very impolite, a Zango-ish interruption in my visits to this board. Anyone who is that willing to abuse my attention here will likely do something equally as dumb later.

                You get one chance to make a first impression, that the impression I get is a group of people willing to get in my face to try to get me to sign up. If their products are good and such, they don't need it.

                Answer is no.

                    If a company needs to do that kind of stuff to get my attention, I don't think they are right for me.

                            If they used Franck instead, I'm sure their CTR would have been huge.

                                The banner actually scared the hell out of me a few times when my 7.1 speakers were 'on' and I was surfing peacefully and then suddenly.. ding ding..dang.. wtf?

                                Was just wondering how many of you actually played the game?

                                    Stop All banners with sound, anyways I think it hurts the company more then anything.

                                        Don't even know or care who's banner it is, as soon as I hear it, I hit refresh to get rid of it. It's a waste of space.

                                              You forgot the "I don't see them because the sound banners ruined it for ALL the GFY sponsors because I just adblock them all now. Sound banners don't just hurt the stupid sponsors that choose to use them..... they hurt all the GFY sponsors." choice in your poll.

                                                Well, not necessarily because of the banner, but because of the relationship with xxxtoolbar and the trojans and malware it installs.

                                                        I could not figure out where the sound was coming from.... Then when I did, I knocked the guy out and at first thought I won something, once I found out I didn't win anything I was a bit disappointed...

                                                              I didn't even know which company it was promoting until I saw it in another thread title. I just hit reload if I hear that stupid banner.

                                                                        I'm not saying I'd never do business with a company that tried a marketing gimmick like this...BUT...if after hearing all of the webmasters complain they still leave it up, then I know they don't give a fuck what webmasters want and I'll never send them a single click.

I dont think if I want to relax I would come to gfy.com and if I wasn't relaxing than I would come here for business maybe.....or talk to my fela webmasters. Than I guess it is ok to see a fucken annoying banner like that. Maybe I'm wrong.

Sound banners don't just hurt the stupid sponsors that choose to use them..... they hurt all the GFY sponsors." choice in your poll.

                                                                                              Great promo it is all about marketing
                                                                                              But they missed the point entirely, what good is getting your attention if U don't even know who the ad bellongs to or what its about...

                                                                                              A great job would have been getting peoples attention and embedding theyr loggo / company name in your head so eventually you'd cum check 'em out...

                                                                                              This ad doesn't do that...
