I would pay a fee for less advertising, particularly no pop ups that slow computer speeds down for those of us that live where high speed internet is still a myth.

Amortized over the number of users how much money would we be talking about?


If you can't be a good example, may you at least serve as a dreadful warning

What browser are you guys using?

Install Adblock. I can't remember seeing a popup on this site.

It is really tough on the iPhone. So much so that I stopped looking at it on my phone.

Sux on the I pad as well..

I use the site less now that it's here.

I'd care to guess that rick don't give a schit what I think though... He's making his money and that seems to be his sole purpose with this site. Just from an outsiders perspective.

I'd gladly contribute to the site to eliminate the pop ups.

I don't even bother to try to look at the classifieds on the Ipad or the Iphone.

There is nothing more aggravating than pop ups like the one that pops up at the bottom of the screen here. They piss me off to no end, I refuse to ever buy or use the products or services from companies that appear on them.

I pay on other sites so I DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS SCHITT. Would do the same here if it was AN OPTION.

I totally understand the need for advertising, and certainly appreciate those McMillan sale banners when they appear. I just hate having it forced on me, via annoying pop-up. Never bought a product based on a pop-up and probably never will.
