Ya know, I've got to say...those banner ads at the top of the forum board that advertise all those cool looking video games, like Mechwar and whatever...are truly crap. I've tried two of them. Talk about ye olde fashioned video game. Mechwar: You get to choose a cool looking fighting suit. You load the game...you fire a shot...the opponent fires a shot...you fire a shot...your opp...you get the idea. Eventually one of you appears to win and one of you appears to lose. You don't move around. You can't explore the nice looking backgrounds...you just mouse click a shot, then the other guy shoots at you. On a scale of one to ten, it's well below one. Watching grass grow, concrete set or your nasal hair turning white is all on an excitment par with those games. I hope the owners of this site are getting a fair amount of dosh for advertising this drek. However much they're paying you...it's not enough. This was a humourous posting by the way.

It's not down to us, jaq! Proboards give us the board for free, so we can't really moan 'bout the excellent merchandise they see fit to advertise which I strongly urge you to buy. 'matter of fact, i'm considering introducing it as a term & condition of joining/ leaving the board. And of course, I would never suggest that everyone switch their browser to firefox and install the Adblock Plus extension because that does the trick ...

Lin was in stitches with the "I'd never suggest" bit. Can I secretly admit I clicked on the Vampire freaks banner also? How many others have done so, and won't admit it in public, hey? You know there are people out there who really, honestly, truly believe they are bloodsucking freaks? (I noticed most of them are under 25 however. The affliction must fade after the teenage years?) The world is a scary place, the internet has proved that, beyond a doubt.

The banner ad on the main page today read... "I can't stand those Google ads!" That's funny!

Shamefully I used to be a member of Vampire Freaks and I have to say it really is one of the most dodgy community sites I have seen. I used to go to the chat room there and the sheer amount of crap that was spoken could have filled a black hole.

Jeez, Corpsie, you're just not having any luck with this message board thing at all.
