CDSmith · 07-09-2004, 09:08 AM

Why not reach over and turn the volume all the way down on your speakers?

Call me crazy but it works for me.

Turning the sound down means I can't listen to my music. I'm blocking all Flash now.

A few bad apples spoils the bunch.

I work with sound too. When I'm working with sound my speakers are turned up. When I'm surfing or perusing the boards though my speakers are off.

While we're asking questions here... I run a php board and I have a few flash banners from paid advertisers. Those accounts pay me enough to keep me in business and allows me to keep my board running so the thousands of members I have can enjoy it. My members of my board are there for free and can even make money themselves in lots of ways, on my board.

My question is, how can I block the fuckers who are blocking my ads from coming on my board and wasting my bandwidth? Does anybody know of a way to block the blockers? Please someeone help me, my business may be in trouble if these banner ad blockers see any widespread use.

Thanks.

BradM · 07-09-2004, 09:27 AM

Don't you love it Brad? And that part that gets me is this woman comes into the threads and just laughs at everyone like it is a joke.

THIS IS A FUCKING BUSINESS INDUSTRY
Some people use GFY as a business resource not as a glorified TGP.

EDIT: Cd you have completely missed the point.
On your forum do your banners scream: "OH MY GOD I AM CUMMING"?
Im sure if they did everyone would block them too. Don't play dummie, because you're not.

Simple solution. Dont use Flash. Then people will be able to SEE your banners.
You couldnt figure that out?

candyflip · 07-09-2004, 09:36 AM

To any sponsors using Flash banners...here's your money hard at work

MetaMan · 07-09-2004, 09:37 AM

turn off your java the flash banner is loaded through a rotator done in java.

o and flash is the devil, anyone with a half decent product doesnt need a million flashy things to sell.

CDSmith · 07-09-2004, 09:41 AM

Ha ha.... I knew I'd piss off a few of you blockheads with that one.

Don't use flash you say? Simple solution? What about the simple solution I was able to figure out?.... that being, TURN THE SOUND OFF ON YOUR FUCKING SPEAKERS DUMBASS.

The second I decide to visit GFY every day, I turn off my sound. This is accomplished by finding the little dial on my speakers that says "volume" and turning it all the way to the left.

problem solved.

That's right,... this board IS business. As such, paid advertisers PAY to have their ads here. Advertisers usually choose what ads they want up, so your beef is with them, not Lensman. You fuckers will find something to whine about no matter what it is. I can't believe people are going to whine about banner spots. And don't you have to mouse OVER them to get the sound? Why not just stop mousing over them? Too difficult?

Holy shit people.

About 10 people have told you that turning off their speakers isn't an option. I listen to music while I work. So your solution isn't a valid one for me or anyone else who's pointed it out to you. Do you even listen?

How hard it's to understand that I do listen to music while browsing GFY and working. I have GFY open while I do my shit, and press refresh -> read -> post and then continue working. You think I'm gonna mute my music every 15 minutes for a while?

No fucking way.

Why not stop mousing over them? You've noticed the banner there in the middle on top and bottom button? Occasionally my mouse does come over the banner when I use bookmarks for example to come to GFY.. the banner is right there below the bookmarks.

Holy shit to yourself.

im not sure why you always have to be devils advocate

We pay to advertise here, i would never use a sound banner..it is invasive.
I do about 100-150 tasks each day...who knows im not really counting, and i dont think i should have to stop my music just because im coming here

im not complaining...please everyone use sound banners, feel free to.

i just wont hear them is all.

Hmm...is surfing GFY..."work"?

CDSmith · 07-09-2004, 09:55 AM

I honestly had no idea of just how many crybabies there are on this board.

Well, I suppose I had some idea. But I did not realize there were so many.

For the record, I don't like the sound banners either. No, that's not ture either..... there have been a few that were quite amusing over the years. I can't recall them exactly, but I know there were several that had me laughing. But in general I don't like them.

So I changed my work habits a little. That's all, just a little. I listen to the radio while on the boards, so I get my tunes but can have the sound turned off on my computer. It wasn't that big of a deal to me to do this. When I want to listen to the playlist on my computer I'm usually designing something or updating my sites or something, and am NOT taking little breaks to check the boards. To me work is work. I'll finish my work, then come here and fuck around after. (with the sound off)

To me the solution is so easy, why would I want to come here and publicly cry my eyes out over what amounts to an insignificant annoyance? No, some people just seem to feel the driving need to find something to bitch about. I am simply not one of those people.

Heaven forbid anyone disagree with you or offer up some other opinion, is that your deal? Now you're not only crying about your own fuck up but you're now crying because I posted some horrible meanness in your little threadsky?

I say again..... holy shit people.

I've been on the phone (I use a headset) with bankers, lawyers, local business people.... and I can tell you one thing about that. I never sit at the computer clicking around on GFY or any message board while I'm talking to someone on the phone. If I ever do, my volume on the speakers is turned off. (duh)

And telling someone to fuck off because they disagree with a few of your points is... well, a little schoolboyish, or may even schoolgirlish. Are we not men?

riosluts · 07-09-2004, 10:13 AM

i know what u mean. I basically turn my speakers off because it scared the shit outta me a couple of times.

Blockhead for those who block ads. That's all. Block ads>>blocker>>blockhead. It was a play on words. Lighten up francis.

Sorry CD, I can't agree with you here. I surf the board while doing things in other windows that require sound. When I go over those fucking banners, especially by accident (which is the only time I do it now), it's a pain in the ass and is extremely counterproductive. Am I supposed to sit there and turn the speakers up and down as I switch windows? I don't think so. I will be blocking all flash in future. Sorry, sponsors.

CDSmith · 07-09-2004, 10:46 AM

Phoenix, you've got your little ad blocker thing now, go use it and be happy. All this complaining is useless from where I sit. I said that I also don't like the sound ads... I said that. Right here in this very thread I said it.... thus I agree with you on that point. But for me the problem ends there, because when I open a browser to come here I turn my sound off. To me it's that simple. In fact, as soon as I pick up the phone I turn my sound off.

The boards aren't the only sites that have sound files and banners and flash bullshit, there are plenty of sites that do that. Are we going to complain to every site that does it? If not, why only here?

If I felt the need to go get one of these blocker things I would do it and get on with life. The LAST thing I would do is come here and cry about sound like so many others are doing today. I'm not singling out you on that comment btw, mostly a lot of others who are going on and on and on with their complaining. I'm the type that deals with it and moves on, minus the whining.

I can't say that the widespread use of these blockers will be good for business on the board in the long run though. I'd certainly like to hear Lensman's take on this issue. After all, it's his board last time I checked.

Understood. I love my tunes as much as the next guy, maybe even more. Right now my kitchen ghetto blaster is on 92 CITI FM cranking classic rock, and that radio cannot be affected by anything on the internet in any way.

I love it.

So I turn my sound on the computer off. I'm surfing the boards with nary a sound problem ever. But you nailed it... it's not about that so much as all the crying and whining and bitching about it that's going on. To those guys I say block them, don't block them, whatever, but enough already with the crying.

Btw, I saw house of 1000 corpses last month. Pretty freaky deaky.

I dont listen to the radio at all.

I play gigs and gigs of my mp3s.

I have encoded my 2000+ cd collection along with hundreds of rare vinyl etc.

Half the shit I listen to is ripped vinyl.

i sit here and design for hours upon hours, a radio will not cut it becuase I don t like a damn thing on the radio and having my computer control my entertainment center has been the way I run my home for 5 years now.

i cant change my entire audio set up to surf GFY.

my computer runs audio to my entire apartment, to my main stereo in the living room and my work station.

as i said, turning off sound is not an option.

turning off flash is though. ;)

onto horror: HO1KC is good shit.

Ive been watching Peter jackson DeadAlive over and over the past few days hehehe

get that one.

CDSmith · 07-09-2004, 01:38 PM

Different habits. No problem.

My playlist has only about 500 songs in it right now. I fire it up and let it play radomly about 1-2 times a week, but during that I'm almost always working on some project and not surfing, so sound banners can't bother me in the least.

I'm lucky with the radio I guess, I have a few choices for stations here that play the kind of shit I love, the classic rock, the 70's & 80's tunes etc. If one station plays the odd shit song I get up and turn it to the other station.

Plus right now I have ads running on the local radio stations for one of my mainstream sites. I get a kick out of hearing my commercial on the air.

Peter Jackson DeadAlive --- I'll watch for it.

And that part that gets me is this woman comes into the threads and just laughs at everyone like it is a joke. THIS IS A FUCKING BUSINESS INDUSTRY Some people use GFY as a business resource not as a glorified TGP. EDIT: Cd you have completely missed the point. On your forum do your banners scream: "OH MY GOD I AM CUMMING"? Im sure if they did everyone would block them too. Don't play dummie, because you're not.

What about the simple solution I was able to figure out?.... that being, TURN THE SOUND OFF ON YOUR FUCKING SPEAKERS DUMBASS. The second I decide to visit GFY every day, I turn off my sound. This is accomplished by finding the little dial on my speakers that says "volume" and turning it all the way to the left. problem solved. That's right,... this board IS business. As such, paid advertisers PAY to have their ads here. Advertisers usually choose what ads they want up, so your beef is with them, not Lensman. You fuckers will find something to whine about no matter what it is. I can't believe people are going to whine about banner spots. And don't you have to mouse OVER them to get the sound? Why not just stop mousing over them? Too difficult? Holy shit people. __________________ *Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!* ALWAYS THE HIGHEST PAYOUTS: Big Bux/ImLive SIGNUP ON NOW!!! Put some PUSSYCA$H in your pocket.

But I did not realize there were so many. For the record, I don't like the sound banners either. No, that's not ture either..... there have been a few that were quite amusing over the years. I can't recall them exactly, but I know there were several that had me laughing. But in general I don't like them. So I changed my work habits a little. That's all, just a little. I listen to the radio while on the boards, so I get my tunes but can have the sound turned off on my computer. It wasn't that big of a deal to me to do this. When I want to listen to the playlist on my computer I'm usually designing something or updating my sites or something, and am NOT taking little breaks to check the boards. To me work is work. I'll finish my work, then come here and fuck around after. (with the sound off) To me the solution is so easy, why would I want to come here and publicly cry my eyes out over what amounts to an insignificant annoyance? No, some people just seem to feel the driving need to find something to bitch about. I am simply not one of those people. __________________ *Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!* ALWAYS THE HIGHEST PAYOUTS: Big Bux/ImLive SIGNUP ON NOW!!!

I said that I also don't like the sound ads... I said that. Right here in this very thread I said it.... thus I agree with you on that point. But for me the problem ends there, because when I open a browser to come here I turn my sound off. To me it's that simple. In fact, as soon as I pick up the phone I turn my sound off. The boards aren't the only sites that have sound files and banners and flash bullshit, there are plenty of sites that do that. Are we going to complain to every site that does it? If not, why only here? If I felt the need to go get one of these blocker things I would do it and get on with life. The LAST thing I would do is come here and cry about sound like so many others are doing today. I'm not singling out you on that comment btw, mostly a lot of others who are going on and on and on with their complaining. I'm the type that deals with it and moves on, minus the whining. I can't say that the widespread use of these blockers will be good for business on the board in the long run though. I'd certainly like to hear Lensman's take on this issue. After all, it's his board last time I checked. __________________ *Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!* ALWAYS THE HIGHEST PAYOUTS: Big Bux/ImLive SIGNUP ON NOW!!!

I fire it up and let it play radomly about 1-2 times a week, but during that I'm almost always working on some project and not surfing, so sound banners can't bother me in the least. I'm lucky with the radio I guess, I have a few choices for stations here that play the kind of shit I love, the classic rock, the 70's & 80's tunes etc. If one station plays the odd shit song I get up and turn it to the other station. Plus right now I have ads running on the local radio stations for one of my mainstream sites. I get a kick out of hearing my commercial on the air.
