    [​IMG] Tal, whilst Iunderstand you actually have to have them here, could you at least try and find some that are even vaguely relevant to us fellow people on the right side of the pond?

    There is a least one that will give a message saying it can't be viewed by those of us outside those firsat international cricketing nations. But as yet I've not even seen one about stuff I'd even have to consider using if I could.

    L, this post belongs in Sorcerous Sundries. :nono:
    And I do believe that Tal has no control over what ad's appear, that they are randomly generated.

    [​IMG] Well you say randomly but wouldn't it be so that the same adverts appear randomly or do you mean random adverts do appear at random times?

    Id've thought that Taluntain would have had some idea what adverts we were recieving though.

    Well...IIRC he told me once, it was generated from a random list of adverts. For every that loads he get's a certain amount of $ (not much mind). I think you get them whenever you open Sorcerers.net and Boards O' Magick.

    [​IMG] That's right, I have totally no control over what kind of pop-ups appear. There are a couple of other pop-up providers than this one, but they're all worse. Either they install spyware on your computer, install software without asking for permission, or place unclosable windows in your taskbar. In short, while the pop-ups you're served here are not relevant, they're the least intrusive of all. And you're not required to click on them for me to get paid, just let them load fully.
