Lens - please stop the sound banners. - GoFuckYourself.com

SleazyDream · 08-16-2004, 09:51 PM

it's really getting old.

it's getting to point where we have to ask - who do you care about - the few extra pennies you get from the advertisers who want sound banners or the users of GFY who make gfy what it is and bring you the revenue in the first place.

it's getting to be a matter of respect.....

please stop taking sound banners if you have ANY respect for us GFY users.

Please.

Sly_RJ · 08-16-2004, 09:53 PM

We have requested this many, many times. Same with annoying flash banners. Nobody cared.

The result: I STILL surf with Flash disabled, meaning... I see less than 10% of the banners on GFY.

Spunky · 08-16-2004, 09:53 PM

I hate the ones that keep playing when the mouse is off...that hustler banner sucks ass..

I have to agree 100% here.

This Hustler banner has been by far the words. I will be turning off my Flash very quickly as well.

At very least, make a rule that the sound has to stop on mouse out.

wdsguy · 08-16-2004, 09:56 PM

amen to that

You are more than welcome. I mainly use the Firefox disable-flash plugin, works wonders.

gornyhuy · 08-16-2004, 09:57 PM

I don't mind flash, though it does slow the board load time down considerably, but the sound is REALLY annoying.

MrIzzz · 08-16-2004, 09:57 PM

i agree with you totally here

I use the same.

Tip for advertisers: use standard, non-Flash banners. Many of us have Flash disabled. And to be honest, now I actually DO notice the ads that I can still see.

Yes. That is what is needed. If would also be nice if they were not allowed to go above a certain DB.

Yes, because their stick out from the empty flash boxes. WegCash especially.

AudreyLive · 08-16-2004, 10:04 PM

I second all of you as well. It is very annoying.

Lensman · 08-16-2004, 10:11 PM

It's only supposed to be allowed on mouseover. Not on mouseout! I'm frankly getting sick and tired of the ones that do not comply with that!

I'm gonna kick Eric's gay butt.

I have never had them start playing automatically but at the same time I have acidentally rolled over the banner sometimes with my volume loud. It sounded as if I was shooting a porn movie in my office.

rakeback · 08-16-2004, 10:27 PM

there's a fine line between good marketing and annoyence.

Even if I was interested in Hustler's program, theres no way I would have look at it now.
