Take my money! Please!
I have said it before and I will offer to vote with my wallet again!
These latest advertisements with the flashing buttons (that frankly, scare me, as they look like popups that will perhaps load mal-ware for me) has me saying it again.
If site administration offered a paid membership that had a sole benefit of removing the ads, I would be all over it!
Thanks

Just go to the bottom left corner of your screen and click on the drop down and pick "no side ads"

I use adblocker a firefox plugin. I didn't know the site had advertizing on it until a few weeks ago. I have a blank sponsors box on the left of the page. I don't have a lot of ads in my browsing but it can be a mixed blessing.
YMMV
It just keeps getting better

I understand, and I'm all for making more options available, but these things take time. We have few other things that are higher on the priority list, but be assure that improving the advertizing/sponsorship is something that I'm very interested in and is on the TODO list.

I for one enjoy the the fact that this site is free. Moreover, I don't mind supporting those who support this site with their adds.

This may be sound a little crazy, but maybe so crazy it just might work. Contact dwessell and buy up all the adspace on SRP, using a plain dark blue background as your ad. This way you dont have to worry about malware or flashing ads, and you get to support the site financially. Problem solved?

I'm cheap - I'll put up with a lot if it means I don't have to pay!

This reminds me, I haven't seen any ads for Russian brides or cougar dating services on SRP for awhile.

A side effect. If you set up for no side ads and go to your home page, everything on the left side is gone. Latest posts, started threads, friends. You gotta restore the SRP default to see it. Still free, though!
