 | Annoying ad stuff
I fully understand the need for ads here and have been trying very hard to ignore them but I just can't. The hyperlinks inserted into the messages is most annoying, the kontera ads slow down paging loading and now we have ads with sound. This is just too much for me. My visits have already become more infrequent. I'm not sure how much longer I'm willing to suffer through this to be a part of a wonderful community.
Joel and Reggie - I beg you to consider an ad-less subscription.

| My sentiments exactly. Please mute internet opinion group. It is causing some to stuspect here is a virus taking over their computers. It severely interferes with listening to podcasts while visiting 1src. | |

| Tried going to their site to complain. They have no way to contact them without registering for their pyramid. I think this is not legal. | |

I appreciate that but what about the hyperlinks? Without changing my browser (which would be just for this site), I have no way to block the ads.
I hope you will consider a ad-free subscription service.

And maybe some more storage for the ones who subscribe, both for pictures and private messages. If it was not that much, I might be willing to pay.
