popups may snag a minority of surfers, eventually though, they'll fucking hate them like everyone you know who uses the net regularly. even 1 or 2 popups is annoying. what about when you surf 20 sites in one day with 1 or 2 popups? boy, thats REALLY annoying. use popups and youre a dickhead who only cares about getting money any way you can, its not really up for debate. is that a bad thing? up to your discretion. it works both for and against people who try to be surfer friendly, too hard to say which way it leans farther though.
