So yeah...anybody else notice the nice new circuit city add that pops up after you post a message, and when you try to click here to view your post it forces you to click the add instead and takes you to the circuit city page?
The adds on this site are becoming for too intrusive. I think the creators of Gaia need a nice thwack on the head with a baseball bat or something. They can't possibly need money so badly that they're forced to do something that annoying to the users. It's like they are doing whatever they can to feed their greed, even if it means alienating their most loyal users. Maybe they just figure that they are popular enough now that they will gain users faster than they will use them. I'd go to the feedback forum to post angrily, but I'm sure people have already complained, and at this point they'd probably just lock the thread upon appearing.

Mayhaps I spoke too soon... Apparently they don't really control their adds.

Meh...they probably still get enough money without the adds. They should either get rid of them or find a way to limit them.

Well, I'd say that you need to just block all of the ads. Which is what I do.

It's called AdBlocker Plus; it's a Firefox add-on.

Or you can right-click and select "block images from..."
I've seen the circuit city ads but never had that problem; What's your browser, Krego?
Edit: And change your title... ads, not adds.
