cchalogamer Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 The biggest problem I had was my DEFAULT install of Fx V3 was getting redirected on one of my laptops. The worst thing is I would load the page, then just as the all the adds were finished loading, BAM! redirect. Seriously, that just pisses me off. EDIT: See ads...(from the laptop) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Guys, I don't care about Tweak Town one iota. I am much more concerned about the ramifications of this and it spreading to OTHER sites and becoming commonplace ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verran Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 This is a tough one for me. I use AdBlock and I like it. I don't really mind ads but given the choice I think it's a no-brainer... I prefer to turn them off. But honestly this sort of thing doesn't surprise me at all. Can you blame them? They need to pay hosting fees, that's why they have ads. If you like the content (that's why you go to the site, right?) then you want them to be able to pay their server fees, right? So if they can't do it with ads, how will they do it?

Sounds like the "Acceptance of homosexuals will result in the acceptance of pedophilia and beastiality!" argument, just a bit different. Personally I think you're getting too excited over it. I'd be surprised if they kept that running for the next month, I doubt it'll work.* *This is the internet, everyone's an economic analyst, including me.

Syngensmyth Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Sounds like the "Acceptance of homosexuals will result in the acceptance of pedophilia and beastiality! argument" Wow and you slammed me for my Obama comment. Sounds like one man's Democrat is another man's beastiality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze_Badger Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Perhaps you can elaborate on what the hell you mean by that, as I don't see how accepting harmless relationships ties into cross species relations or pedophilia, but hey, way to go off topic!

Maybe his over-assertions about being gay are because ... he's NOT gay and just wants to seek attention? Who knows. It's been done before though ... !

Kamikaze_Badger Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 No, that argument is about as logical as the arguments you're making. I just hear it all the time. Because of one thing, people are afraid that radical things will occur. Just like my analogy, you're afraid of this spreading all over the internet, effectively forcing you to stop using adblock to go to the websites you want to see. Silverfox, I can get videos to prove things . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
