    this message board has conditioned me to not mouse over banners

    i notice even when i'm Yahoo or something, i subconsciously avoid mousing over the banner. the first time i heard one of these things i was wearing headphone and my volume was turned up loud, but no music. suddenly the voice of god called out 'hey man! where'd you get that domain??' i almost had a heart attack.

        it's goddamn effective though. i NOTICED that banner. it's imprinted in my brain too. every time i see it, i get nervous. kind of like when you're little and a dog jumps out and scares the shit out of you for the first time - you always remember that dog.

          No shit. I turned ALL banners off ages ago, after hearing "I'm a slutty little cockholster" for the 10,000 time.

            I turned them off after "Suck my dick bitch!" blared out of my speakers while I was on the phone to my wife...

              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.

                  I avoid them as well except on days when I feel like going on a banner listening spree and I go over all of them.

                      i have a habit of forgetting i'm wearing headphones. i have these noise cancellation headphones, and i usually listen to music loud. music was probably off for over an hour, but i was still wearing the headphones. i almost had brown pants.

                        Me too.

                        I keep my mouse clear of the banner.

                        Can someone let me know when the banners stop (sound) biting?

                        Thanks,
                        -Dino

                              use FireFox and install the "Adblock" extension to get rid of those Flash banners
