First I was completely surprised. I just came from a site i've been using for a few years and been a member of for 2 or more years where we were complaining about how the servers go down for two days and the site hasn't been updated in years.

I like the colors. It's bright and the layout feels smooth. For some reason the style of the words in the submenu bug me (you know the menus that show whenever you highlight home or forum, etc).

It's the best site on the internet.

That good enough?

I love ad blockers

Yes me too. Bet you'd love to work hard and put a lot of money into something for people to use and not even make a contribution towards.

I give you traffic and link your site to other forums like on sites I mod at Gamespy for news/articles giving it more traffic and hits.

As for ads don't tell me you skip past ads when reading a mag or a recorded show on TV.

And no contribution..I guess posting on the forums which they were meant for means nothing.

Traffic isn't much use if you block the ads. That just costs money to host but doesn't pay anything back! We get paid per impression not per click - doesn't matter if you click through or not but blocking ads from displaying cuts off any revenue that the site can try to generate.

I obviously appreciate people linking to and promoting the site and apologies if my original comment was a little harsh but I do feel like people that block ads (and especially those who go and boast about it) are basically sticking two fingers up to all the work and time that goes into the site. It's like me going into a shop and just helping myself to whatever I want without paying for it. I want to keep the site free for you guys and have advertisers fund its existance, but if you block the ads (as about 1/4 - 1/3 of users now are) then it really makes things an uphill struggle.

Well basicly right. But sorry, I still block flash ads. First off traffic, second anoying sound (often) and CPU usage thats why I use flashblock. The other I would never block, but having only 350kbit/s download at home makes you think about flashblock quite fast.

Excellent redesign, a few rendering bugs in konqueror but thats about it. The pages are a fraction the size amd load very quickly now (with the old site they frequently didn't load at all).

I bet your servers thanking you.
