Ok, so I just got back to my house a few minutes ago, decided to get a couple of Oreos, and go to my favorite site Newgrounds. But, when I go to the Games section, there are ADS not only on the usual annoying parts, but on the winter theme artwork on the sides of the site! I say that this is crazy that we are practically erasing art with advertisements! I say we form a rally against the evil ads and banish them once and for all! (Well, that part's optional, really.)

I agree those advertisments should not be there.

Calm down there killer, I recently banned someone for being less bold and obnoxious with his all-caps post.

And... I'm not sure I understand what you're talking about. The winterific side-art only shows up to fill in the extra space on the side of the forums for those of us viewing this place at a resolution higher than 800 x 768. If you're seeing ads, you could have some sort of adware on your computer. Legitimate advertisers wouldn't bother paying for adspace that wouldn't show up on the casual internet user's computer.

It doesn't matter how they affect the ascetics - the site isn't going to pay for itself.

So either we switch over to monthly membership fees, or we tolerate some pop-ups and sidebar ads.

Are advertisements really that torturous?

I mean, do they actually hurt you?

No? Stop complaining.

I would offer a screenshot of exactly what's happening, but my computer is messed and can't deal with pictures. (Long story, it's been struck by lightning twice.) I don't think that we should get rid of the ads completely, just find a different spot for them! Preferably somewhere where nobody would notice them. I mean, it's Cartoon Network...

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I have the usual Newgrounds Ice Statues, and all the ads are in the rightful place. Dunno why it's doing that to you,

They are annoying, and ads create lagg, but atleast the site is free.

O shit, now I noticed the ads on the game page. It's kind of stupid in a way, CN advertising on NG??? It's obvious that the people on NG know that the games here are a million times better then the ones on CN. And its even on the game page on NG.

CN has always sucked. Ever since they got rid of Loony Toons years ago. Now they have gay shows like My Gym Partner is A Dumbass, and Fosters Home For Imaginary Pricks.

Those ads are horrible, 5 ads on one page.
i understand its a popular page so they have to milk it for every thing it's worth.
i hope its not a trend that continues around the site.
it looks shit.

I find it ironic that there are ads for Cartoon Network games right next to an ad for the movie, 'Jackass 2.5".
