Anyone else getting this? What's this crap about? I think some of them even extend out of their squares. I support this site by not using adblock and clicking some ads occasionally, but these kinds of ads are annoying as hell.

I nearly pissed myself when I was replying to a PM and heard "Congrajewlations! You won a free whatever!" my volume was all the way up too

Yeah I just noticed those stupid ads at the bottom saying "Congratulations! You are the 1,000,000th visitor!" I've never seen those on Newgrounds before.

I know, whenever I log on to this site I keep getting the ads that pop out of thier frames. I hate those. They cover up the flash I'm watching or playing, and it's just terrible.

I have gotten one of those today. when I heard it I was like, wtf?
Newgrounds should have some standards with ads.

I could've sworn there was a thread for this but the search bar doesn't take "Ads"

thinking the same thing. They got rid of the pop ups, but this type of stuff is still around

I could've sworn there was a thread for this but the search bar doesn't take "Ads"

Yeah it was to minimize all the threads talking about single ads. Can't find it either, but this is about how newgrounds shouldn't be such a pimp when it comes to ads. Probably going to make other people switch to adblock, which is the last thing Tom would want

I don't use adblock only on Ng, but the second they start using ads with sound. I'm turning it on.

I don't mind the regular ads, hell, they support Ng. But sound is going too far.

Only noticed it today, a ToonsTown ad or something went off, with a boink-type sound. It scared me.

Yeah it was to minimize all the threads talking about single ads.

So that whole 4-character-limit was just to reduce ad threads?
