MrCobra Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 There is nothing wrong with blocking ads. Come people, be honest. How many of you even click on the ads? 585641546[/snapback] The internet has ads? Haven't seen any ads from anywhere except NW in over 2 years.

Michael_C Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Shows what you know.Customers pay their ISP's for the service for "X" dollars. ISP's pay their Bandwidth/Backbone providers for "Y" dollars. Now what don't you understand in that sentence? If you think we don't pay for the content on the internet, then wake up and smell the coffee. By paying our internet provider for internet service, we are paying for bandwidth. You can't just start a company and say "Ok lets be an ISP. Hey Little Billy! Go get ur 486 that's gonna be our backbone!" ISP's have to shop around for the best and cheapest bandwidth provider. 585686986[/snapback] Well nobody except myself has paid for any of my bandwidth yet so I don't know where its all going... :rolleyes: The banner ads do pay the bandwidth bills for a lot of sites and if you choose to block them don't be suprised when people decide to close their sites. I've thought about adding AdSense ads to my download pages but have decided against it so far so I pay everything out of my own pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee.B Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 When thru FF, blocking "every" ads and banner over here. What about RSS ? people got to read articles without having to go on the website and therefore see the ads...or at least they dont have to browse the pages and can select the title of their choice (and thus reduce the chance to click on an adverts)... SHould we kill RSS as well?...pff stupid article I say... If their products were so great : 1- We would hear about them on forums and community from user experience and not only in their obstrusive ads 2-they'd find a way to promote it right and go thru the the adblock feature my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_C Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Thats why you only put a summary is RSS descriptions, then people have to visit the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
