It's happened a few times now. Has anyone seen that flash add when you're listening to somebody's audio, where there's a mosquito that you have to zapp? If you accidentally put your mouse cursor over the banner, the mosquito starts buzzing and it doesn't shut the fuck up. So, any music that you're listening to has this stupid fucking buzzing insect sound over it, so you have to refresh the page and listen to the song all over again. Stupid add. Can't that be taken down?

Hahahaha. There are a few ads like that. I hate the one with the smilies that screams "Hellloo!" every time you mouse over the damn banner. It would be nice if Newgrounds put a sound restriction on the ads.

Yeah exactly!!! Or maybe a mute button in the corner of the add. That would be good.

I hate GoreBastard.

He's blatantly false advertising, I see no gore at all from him! I mean, I listen to his stuff, and the gore ends up coming along by MY hands, and not his.

Damn him I say!

Haha, thanks dude. Me and my friends had a great time just going through your music and reading the names of the songs.

Anyway, we love your music and try to use it in every game we can. Keep up the great work!

I'm going to hate myself for saying this but

[b]USE IE.[/b]

Yes, IE is a pure, undiluted example of Microsoft-grade excrement, but their little legal issue with ActiveX can be used to your advantage - flash applets no longer do anything until they have been activated by clicking on them.

Use Firefox, and in the tools menu click on extensions. Get an extension called Adblock Plus, and that will take care of any ads you don't want. Just don't get the Adblock that's listed under Top Extensions, instead search for Adblock Plus. It's a million times better. Hell you might even find some other good extensions while you're at it, like NoScript (blocks javascript from sites you dont trust) or VideoDownloader (dl videos from YouTube etc.).

That there could get you banned as well.

You'll just have to take it up the ass, and then find some way to secretly counter it so you don't feel so guilty and/or frustrated. By counter, I mean something small, or going back to whatever you were doing. then have a good lol.

Then cry.

Maus is a dick head. I don't even know her. I'm just checking to see if I'll get banned for saying that... Ohhhh, naughty me...
