Just a note to RealGM 

Post#1 » by Narf » Sat Jan 9, 2010 9:36 pm

If you have loud ads that pop up in the top right corner, I will never go to this board at work again and will probably stop posting here. If you think making an extra $0.005 an ad is worth losing 5% of your posters you've got some pretty terrible business sense. Put restrictions on your ads or lose some good posters. We can't have loud pop up ads at work.

The site doesn't allow sound ads get in. The advertisers are third party so letting the admins know which ads are a problem helps them have the advertisers remove them.

Agreed. As the Ads are automatically rotated in by the 3rd Party Provider, occasionally a bad one or two slips in.

If you can provide the URLs to them (or the name) as they do...it'll help Chris Reina remove them for the future.

Thank you for the help guys. Please offer a screenshot and I can have a better shot at finding the ad. We have a policy against sound ads (as well as pops) that all of our ad networks are well aware of.

Is that what you need? I just had another one that linked to the same site. Different commercial, got another screen shot.

I went through a whole cycle of ads and didn't see the Quizno's one.

We have a policy not to run any sound ads, so if one appears, we want it off the site as quickly as possible.

Is it still appearing for you? If so, where are you located?
