What's up with all the pop up ads on this site lately? I've been at this site for about five minutes and in that time frame I've received over thirty pop ups!! What's up? Anyone else noticed this?

No, I never get pop ups. Maybe you should look into getting a pop up blocker.

I do have a pop up blocker and it tells me every time a pop up tries to come up. It counted 33 in 6 minutes!

I've counted 4 in five min. so what it's a small number in the bottom of my screen. You know this is a free site and it does cost money to maintain the site. I say if it came to charging for membership or pop ups, bring on the pop ups.

Go to:

and download their toolbar. It's pop-up blocker is easy to install and very effective.

Hi all, I'm sure you are all aware that web space is at a premium and getting more expensive all the time. Advertising is pretty much the only option you have if you want to avoid charging your members. Just try to recognise that Auspet is trying to keep your right to free speach, FREE. Otherwise you would have to be charged for your free speach. Also this is still a fish forum and this topic should be put in the general posts forum, but since it came up here I have addressed it here. Thanks for your understanding.

UPDATE:
There was a problem with a new ad server. The problem has been resolved. There should not be more than one pop-up per user per 24 hours. If you are still getting more than this please let me know. For more detailed information you may view Auspetian's response at the following link: http://www.auspet.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/002634.html
