Not sure if they are supposed to be there, but you can click the dim the lights button to silence it. :)

Dim the lights yeah. That's what I figured.

Yeah, scared the living fuck out of me, my volume was cranked enjoying music. At least it wasn't spam or a glitch, and Wade did provide a helpful tip to silence the annoyingness.

Not to be a dick, but grammar was invented for a reason. So you should probably start using it.

Yeah I made this in less this 1 min and i'm tired... And yes u did kind seem like a y'know right there = =

I'm guessing they probably don't belong there. Sometimes things get screwed up with the ad feeds, like the advertiser might send through ads they aren't supposed to. Tom and the gang are away at the Beer thing, so I don't know when they'll have a chance to look into it. Until then use the dim the lights, etc.

I've never had a ad with sound at the bottom of the screen. Is this a bad thing Wade?

Good, because I don't care about Arm and Hammer laundry detergent or it's history of being "environmentally friendly."

Good thing dim the lights works, because this fake volume buttons doesn't do anything, heh.

It scared me cause every time I went to a video some Arm and Hammer video would start playing. I thought it was some sort of spam attacking my computer. You can also turn off the sound on the ad too I found out.

On youtube there's this really annoying advertisment for some scam called The Death Quiz. It's a scam because all you do is take the quiz and then you have to supply your phone number to get the result, then that signs you up for their txt service thing and they'll keep texting you stuff and each time charge you $3 per text.

Anyway what makes the ad so fucking annoying is that every time my mouse goes over it I get this loud high pitched laugh screaming out of my speakers.

Ads should never have sound, they are so fucking annoying.

I don't mind newground's ads, I love this site, and sometimes will click on them even if I'm not really that into it but yeah, already play wow, I did install combat arms, and that Grand chase, but yeah, what REALLY pisses me off...

Is when OTHER websites submit they're crappy / sometimes good games. then they have ads in them and I have a hard time determining, whether NG is actually getting something out of it or not.
