I think some of you are forgetting how much business you have gotten from here, and in some cases without a single dime out of pocket.

This may be a good time to reflect on the big picture of things, instead of the miniscule items that are just trying to get your attention for a millisecond.

What about the fact that the members of this board are what makes this board?

The more obtrusive ads there are the more people who will do what they can to block ads (therefore making the ads completely redundant) and not promote a program.

Advertising on GFY is most definitely not unobtrusive. You'r'e kidding yourself if you think that. I have no problem with sigs and banners all over the place but the sound on mouse over is really over the top. Judging by the remarks in this thread most people go out of their way to not click on or join programs that advertise like this.

Perhaps you should take note of the words expressed in this thread and adjust advertising to suit?

I head rumors that sleazy is buying www.gofuckyourhobbit.com to make a bannerless webmasterboard, and only his fake nicks can post on there

It's definitely a two way street. GFY promotes us and we promote it.
