Anoying pop up adds and massive banners - Ebusitanus - 03-27-2005

Since the last maintenance this page is overcrowded with these very anoying banners and pop ups. Any way to limit these? I have now even seen banners between two posts in the same thread <p></p><i></i>

Nope. It's horrible and EzBoard's subtle way to force us to come up with another $135 or so, to buy those off for another year. Now there are undoubtedly plenty of generous RAT-ers who will cough up some money, but at this moment, we're applying for extra serverspace on RA.com where we can install our own (yabb) board in the same design as RA.com. <p>Greets<br>

Use Firefox with the Flashblock extension.<br>

I almost had a hart-attack when I logged in today after a few days of not visiting RAT.<br>

You need donators to get rid of those ridiculous and horrendous ads? I'm willing, I'm willing, just tell me how!<br>

As I said in my first comment: we're working on our own hosted forum (in fact, only stupid administrative slowness at our chosen host is keeping me back). Cheaper for everyone and no popups, guaranteed! <p>Greets<br>

I'm not getting any pop-ups, Netscape blocks them for me, but all these f-in' ads SUCK! And now when I try and sign in, the damn thing keeps harassing me to sign up for crap ;-0 Please let us know when you can get new system going. Also, if you have a prob w/ your webserver, let me know, I have a couple good places that are cheap now. ;-)<br>
<br>
Will you be able to just move us across or will we have to sign back up and all? Also, ar eyou saving the archives? Ack, that'd suck! Too much work...<br>

Just got back from Impact of the Roman Empire Conference on Capri. Great fun, unbelievably tired now. Got the webspace though and hope to have a new RAT basically working tomorrow.<br>
I am afraid though that it will entail a new registration, sorry bout that<br>
