USA Autoban Head Slap... Swim Move... | posted on 02-13-2002 @ 2:58 PM |    | |||
| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Oct. 00  | What the fuck is up with this? I think this steps over the bounds of propriety. Banner ads and pop-ups are one thing, but when I want to go to Off Topic and I get a screen that makes me go to OTL, I am going to just walk away for a while. I think many others will as well. Can someone please explain why this is occurring?  | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: May. 00 | Here is a better question BM. We have been told time and time again that clicking on the banner ads makes oa.com a little money at least. So how much does oa.com get if we click on the otl banners???  Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Oct. 00 | OK, the actual "banner" has evolved in the last 20-30 minutes. Now it is an "Option" to be redirected to OTL. But, I thought we were going to be given a heads up when this shit is going to happen. I'm glad I don't have AIM at work or else I know that I'd have been bombarded by confused and pissed off members. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | Actually this was as big a surprise to me as it was to you. I just walked in the door and Vin surprised us with it. Unfortunately he decided to work on it and test it in the middle of the day. He's trying to fix it up. It will replace the DVD porn ads. I will have him shrink it down though so it takes up less space and doesn't fuck with the page loading.  I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands Over The Limit | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: May. 00 | quote: And this begs the question, are these ads for otl paying ads, like the porn ads, or just free plugs for the site? If it's the former then I say go for it, if its the latter than it seems like you are plugging otl at the expense, both literally and figuratively, of oa.com Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | Actually we have a new way to hopefully make money on the site, with a crappy opt-in on the registration form. Nobody has bought a DVD in about 5 weeks, so those ads were making us $0. I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands Over The Limit | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Little change we made today. You'll notice a new option on the rating page, "6-Official". Rating a thread Official will make it show up like that. It (hopefully) will help things stand out, like the Nightie Contest thread, the New Member thread, Test Sigs, everything important.  | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Oct. 00 | Thanks for 'splainin' it to me. But, here's a much more important question: Shouldn't all of the threads in BTS be blue? They are official aren't they? | ||||
| TheGooch Mullet Master Yo Gooch, Moron here... how's that for some fucked up shit... Fez is giving you status... Karma sucks, huh? | posted on 02-14-2002 @ 10:08 AM | | |||
| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Just an FYI: but that boxy lookin thing is pretty ugly...if you guys make it into a banner ad, try to spruce it up. Alot of posters are actually laughing at it b/c it looks, well, unprofessional. And that's something that OTL shouldn't look like. Here's a tip that will save you alot of grief and time... Don't believe in and depend on anyone but yourself. | ||||
