Official GFY Top Banner With Sounds Poll

Not to be an asshole, But the only reason I use NoScript & AdBlock is because of GFY. The only ads I see now are in sigs.

With more and more people blocking those ads, how long do you think those banner spots are going to be worth anything?

Not only are those ads annoying, but GFY runs faster without them so it's a win win situation to block 'em.

Whoever runs this place might wanna consider not allowing advertisers to display banners with sounds.

Anywayz, see poll... u can pick more than 1 option...

I feel you, but I aint tryin to tell them what to do. I'm just sayin if everybody starts blockin' them banners then they wont be sold and sold out for long. Either way I don't care, I got them blocked.

If I hear anything with sound, I refresh the page before I even see where it is coming from.

Wish i could see them just so I could see yours.

But I installed ad blocking software (IE7pro) because of the stupid ones that played sound.

I turned off sounds several weeks ago and I'm pretty happy that I never get surprised with some banner yelling at me.

Having sounds has never enticed me to join a program. Neither have overlays or other stuff that takes over my browser before I get to the GFY main page.
