I hate to make a stupid topic like this, but that one ad is getting on my nerves. Do you all know what I'm talking about? The one that when you hover your mouse over it, it pops up and takes over about a fourth of the page. It says something like, "Here I Rule". Who agrees with me that that ad needs to be taken away. Ugh I feel bad for making this stupid thread.

Bad for us, good for AG. Lots of money gets paid to AG for these ads and they keep AG up, so without those you wouldn't be here to complain about it.

The Magic the Gathering ad is especially annoying since it automatically pops out when you hover over it. It can be shrunk back down by hovering over the cclose part. The catch? When you hover over close and minimize it, the cursor is still on the ad and if you don't move it off quick enough or in the correct way, the ad will expand again.

I just refresh the page anytime I see that ad. It's bad enough that it pops out, but it's like a vicious cycle.

And that .01% of ads that aren't blocked? Right click and block!

Also those expanding ads get a lot more money than normal ones.

Dude, AG get's some serious moolah from these Ad's, that's how they run.

Have you noticed that companies like Circuit city, Toyota, Ford, Verizon, and companies like that have ad's here.

I think the ads should stay, either don't roll you're mouse over them, or live with it >.>

I never really noticed the add and for me it is not that annoying but i guess some people do get annoyed by it also on internet who have it there is a pop up block that also helps.
