The design and typography etc is actually fine. It's the implementation of the site that lets it down.Give me some space you bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Mrs E is doing underwear shopping again judging by the ads I keep getting on VT. My ads suggest I am either after a Russian bride or a Muslim bride! id like to entertain both. ive actually been with a muslim girl who lived at the local YMCA, her dad was a saudi and she had a photo of him looking very unimpressed on her bedside table. she was a good time girl for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) people who don't use ad-blockers complaining about ads People who use ad blockersWhy wouldn't you? As much as companies want to make money from ads, I'm not allowing them on my PC. I could live with them being annoying or distracting (I draw the line at **** full screen ads, or ones with audio though, **** them in their arse). I block all ad networks at my router, purely for security, there have been far too many advertisers inadvertently (or intentionally, the bastards) distributing malware.That reminds me, I need to donate to VT after payday.

While I understand the reasoning behind blocking some overly intrusive ads for security purposes, sites have to support themselves. Everyone blocks ads - sites can't support themselves, decent content is not on the internet any more.You might be right. I like to think that sites with decent original content, or good hubs for a community will survive through donations or sales. But it's likely that some will just disappear. It's unscrupulous advertisers that have started this war, though.The sad fact is, even diligent sitemasters can fall victim to advertisers that spread malicious payloads, unless they're screening every ad before publishing. It's not just shady sites, some major ones have been victim to this, Blizzard Entertainment's official site was spreading malware though adverts a few years ago, and I think Yahoo has too. Would you accept advertising on your TV that have a chance to infect your TV to show ads constantly, even on the BBC?I'll contribute to the sites that matter to me, and VT is one, but I'm not whitelisting ads.

BOF Posted October 7, 2015 Moderator Share Posted October 7, 2015 Necked my pint and left the pub tonight because a really bad barber shop quartet started ad hoc practicing songs beside us. Completely drowning out our conversation. When asked to stop it was all a joke because they thought we were pretending to say they were shite and pretending to want them to stop. Can't wait to see them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eames Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 people who don't use ad-blockers complaining about adsPoint of Order. I use adlockers but whitelist VT for obvious reasons. (No need to thank me Limpid) but the nature of my complaint is that Mrs E and myself have differing opinions on what constitutes day-to-day underwear and I'd rather not see adverts of pants that would Bridget Jones recoil in horror splashed on my screen if at all possible.

MakemineVanilla Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Mrs E is doing underwear shopping again judging by the ads I keep getting on VT. My ads suggest I am either after a Russian bride or a Muslim bride! The ironic thing is that if the large-breasted Muslim women on offer, were to appear in a thread, advertisers might complain that it objectified women and demand that the thread be deleted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
