It's bad enough that they decided we have to have ads on the forums now, but now every time I go to a different thread or w/e my computer feels the need to announce "congratulations, you won" with a picture of some smiley face and an ad saying "This is not a joke, you are the 100000th visitor"

    Most people these days use an AdBlocker for the annoying stuff like that. There is no way to make them stop using ads, besides it's just another way for PWE to gain revenue.

    None of the adds I have encountered have never spoken. Then again, it would be weird for women's panty ads to start to speak.

    Most I ever get are adds for high heels. Funny thing is I get them on my male Assassin's account only.

    Anyways, I've never gotten any add with sound on it, so sorry to hear you do. b:laugh

    Any suggestions for those of us who dont use Mozilla? I prefer Chrome *braces for jeering*

    I'd like to see the ads gone, I dont understand why PWI needs to have ads on a website they own.....

    I dont get any talking ads. At all.

    IE, no adblock programs at all and of course, a virus / spyware free PC.

    I'd also recommend Ghostery and Better Pop Up Blocker if you haven't installed those yet.
