While I do love this site and I understand you must pay the bills, I will not return while you have mainpage popups that I cannot close. MP3.com had popups for Red Dragon that you had to sit through. I`ll be damned if someone forces me to watch an advert.

I totally agree with you, they shouldn't make any ads we have to watch (unless it's for Kikkoman, of course). http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/tongue.gif

Pop-Up Stopper Free Edition (http://www.panicware.com/product_psfree.html) works marvelously, and I mean MARVELOUSLY, not a single pop-up have I received since downloading it...and it's free, and if you want the pop to up, just hit CTRL. Great stuff, much simpler than getting an ad-free domain for the site...

Yep, that's right.

been using it for almost a year and it's 90% accurate.

So, very much worth while. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Also, IIR, the Org is not to blame for this, it is the hosts that force them to have the pop up ads. Anyway, I just have a link straight to the forums, I never bother reading the frontpage. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I was also very pleased with Pop-up Stopper. It's more than 90% effective. More fancy programs that aren't free can even let you get rid off the normal banner commercials.
It would sad to stop using this great site when the problem can be solved.

The Org as far as I know, doesnt host adds which cant be clicked away...

and as mentioned above, just get a link to the guild directly if you're just here for the forums http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif.

I wasn't aware we even had pop-ups. Use a real browser like Opera or Mozilla and you too will be completely unaware of the existence of pop-ups. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
