Most also use vBulletin as well, so that's not a common thread. So far, the only thing that I can discern is unique to this is 318ti.org....... | | | 10-16-2015, 05:08 PM | #20 | Junior Member Join Date: Oct 2015 Location: pacific NW Posts: 19 | Glad to hear I'm not the only one.....although I don't wish this upon anyone else | | | 10-16-2015, 06:25 PM | #21 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Bremerhaven, Germany Posts: 977 | Quote: Originally Posted by 1996 328ti There are only 2 banner ads that I know of.

That's why I forgot. Quote: Originally Posted by danno14 I wonder if it's a "paid supporter" benefit.....

I have no objection to members using ad blockers. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org Last edited by 1996 328ti; 10-16-2015 at 08:01 PM. | | | 10-16-2015, 08:01 PM | #24 | Junior Member Join Date: Oct 2015 Location: pacific NW Posts: 19 | Funny.....

I've had this forum for a long time and wonder if that's something I added years ago This has been the first time someone mentioned popups. Well, I'll be. I do exclude intellitext ads from sponsors. I forgot all about that. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org Last edited by 1996 328ti; 10-16-2015 at 08:21 PM. | | | 10-16-2015, 09:16 PM | #26 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Bremerhaven, Germany Posts: 977 | Quote: Originally Posted by 1996 328ti ...

I block ads, because I have one of those Macs that dies after umpteen thermal cycles.

Which pop-ups are you seeing? | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
