The current ad and a few in the past where one is forced to click on them before seeing the site are absolutely annoying. I NEVER read them and in my
opinion just leave a negative feel about the site. If these were constant I'd be likely to frequent the site less often.
You do know it's all just a money-making scheme....right? It won't really bother most websites to lose a few members or hits if the amount of money
taken in by sponsors or whatever remains consistent or rises.
