The buggy \"click here\" ad
 
It seems to be a rather severe rendering error with this ad on my computer. Please fix it or make it removable or something. It just sticks there covering up a big portion of the screen.

Here is a screenshot:

I'm running Firefox 2.0.0.12 on Fedora Core 8.

Thank you in advance. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Ok, I removed it myself with noscript not allowing shrapnelgames.com but still www.shrapnelcommunity.com. But now I'll miss out on good deals. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Slight rant (please forgive me):
I HATE FLASH CONTENT.
End Rant

Thank you for indulging me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Edit:
Just wanted to add that I am also running Firefox and use flash block to combat flash graphics, but I still end up seeing a huge flash block in the center of the screen for a second while the flash content downloads prior to popping into position in the corner. Very annoying.

It is fairly awful.

Actually it is so out-of-place looking that at first I thought it was some kind of adware or something. Being as I'm running Linux I thought maybe I'd been hacked!

Yeah, that ad is pretty hideous and annoying. It's a shame when good sites put up ads that are so bad it actually motivates you to disable parts of the site to avoid them.

Funny, it looks fun for me, with firefox, adblocks and other things in place.

There's an ad?

Firefox, No Script and Adblock on windows

Firefox with Privoxy on Linux

what ad?

Re: The buggy \"click here\" ad
 
Yes, yes, I also use it, but on some pages I actually want all the content like on this one (until now).

I hadn't even noticed the ad before. It's looks good for me, but it must be very annoying.
