Erik:
In reponse to something you said in another topic about most players liking the ads, I would like you to know that I do not. I have no idea what percentage of users agree with me, but I thought you should know.
I do completely recognize that I enjoy free use of a great site, for which I am very grateful, and that you should be compensated for your time. The ads are a small price to pay, and they certainly will not lead to me leaving the site (at least one person has said this in a forum). I just don't want you to be misinformed or making false claims about the ads' popularity if many users agree with me.
A suggestion to make the ads more tolerable: find a way to rotate them. I think it's the fact that I have to stare at the same one for 24 hours that bugs me. Rotating every 2 seconds would be just as bad, but perhaps they could be switched every time we move between pages. I don't know enough about computers to know the viability of such programming, but I would think it could be done.
Again, I love this site and I understand the ads, but could there maybe be some variety?
