Thumbs down I'll Nth that!

Hi

I emailed you (Fraser) a few weeks back about the whole ad thing. They are seriously irritating!

One thing that really irritates the crap out of me with these ads is that they are complete crap. You actually have to be a total idiot to believe what they say.

Maybe you don’t see the ones I’m seeing because you're in Canada and I’m in South Africa and as a result seeing different ads?

These

"you're the 999 999th visitor to this site.. blah blah blah... ...you win a fake prize, woohooo.... blah blah..."

ads are all over the web. Particularly on dodgy websites.

They do nothing for universe today's credibility! If anything they damage its reputation (at least the one I’ve come to know over the years).

Another thing i can guarantee you is that these ads do NOT appeal, in any way, to the users of the universe today website/forum unless they are incredibly gullible or just plain stupid.

I suggest you stick with Google Adsense or find an ad server who will serve useful ads with some level of credibility.

Best Regards
