No more Popups

[Anand Lal Shimpi]

For those of you that had the "pleasure" of seeing the popup ads that were up over the weekend, it looks like 24/7 has finally pulled them. Please let me know if they come up again and I'll make sure it gets taken care of asap.

(I'm secretly waiting for someone to start a "All your popups are belong to us" thread )

Take care,
Anand

I really don't understand why people got so worked up over it, but I'm glad they're gone.

Thanks.

And the seas parted, animals crawled on their bellies, and plants wilted under his Immense fury. Hell hath no fury as Anand scorned =].

They are quite annoying after the tenth time.

Thanks Anand.

[yakko]

[Cable God]

Could you grab a screenshot and let me know what link the popup pointed to next time it comes up? The problem is that there are around 600 ad campaigns running, and finding the one popup campaign is quite difficult. It's a lot easier if I can just send them the image/link and tell them to pull it.

Take care,
Anand

Thanks Boss, it was getting annoying. How dare they interrupt my neffing.

 

[FrogDog]

If I see it again, Anand, will do.

 

[BigSmooth]

I hope the e-mail to 24/7 contained the line "YOUR POPUPS HAVE NO CHANCE TO SURVIVE MAKE YOUR TIME."

It's a lot easier if I can just send them the image/link and tell them to pull it.

Do they operate that way for all their clients, or are you lucky to be able to wield that kind of power? Either way, it makes life good for us.

I made certain that in my contract with them I made it very clear that there were to be no casino/gambling, pornographic, popup, etc... ads, that makes it much easier for me to hammer them on it.

This is too great of a community to have it littered with horrible ads. Money isn't everything.

Take care,
Anand

Geez, like this crowd isn't used to popups at all the other sites in their bookmarks.

*gasp* the great one speaks....

Seriously though, I bookmark straight to the forum pages and i don't get that problem.

[pidge]

I don't mind popups so much...cause I got a program which blocks them

 

[Azraele]

Thanks Anand.

Popups are very annoying.
