    I've always considered myself a person who can change when I must ... and do it without to much crying ,........... but lets get real here :!: ........... Who ever is doing all this changing is going to lose alot of members. Then where will CAD be :?: :?: ........... When I first came in here a bit ago it freaked me out :shock: :shock: - - I thought something was wrong with my PC, so I stepped out and came back in ..... then I almost started to blame my grandsons thinking they had opened the door to trojans and junk again (my sweet adorable grandsons) .... but first I started reading post and realized that .... my darling grandsons hadn't done anything wrong ..... it was all CAD's doing :shock: .... honestly ~ it doesn't please me to see what's happening here .... I do know of a few other sites and maybe it's time I take my spare time to those boards.

    If you want some money just ask for donations. Don't shove these stupid ads down our throats. It just makes the webpage look ugly. I hope you guys have a change of heart and take these ads down.

    Huh?

    The look changed?

    There are ads?

    Something must be broken in Firefox. Oh, I think it's this thing called 'AdBlock Plus'.

    Site looks great to me.

    Yes, we all know Firefox has ad blocking. Other browsers do exist, some of which are better than Firefox.

    Oh, come ON, folks! It ain't that bad! scroll up and you'll see there are NO ads (currently) below the Rev's post! Just a little white space out to the side!

    It actually makes it easier to see all the big PIX posted (like the cowboy ones in the women's thread) that werent "resized" to fit the forum!

    Probably NEVER have to "scroll" right to left to read text under a post with an oversized picture again!

    I would HOPE no one would "leave" over this! Just IGNORE the ads, like you always do on google! this site has NEVER been "defined" by its "borders." It is the "kitchen table" of our family! Like MANY families who have had to downsize their homes (like my parents) it may be a bit smaller, but that only makes it more intimate!

    To some.... like ME.... that is a scary thing! But, we must learn to adapt or we'll just get farmed out to a retirement home!

    I only ask that no one touches my elbows!! And DON'T try to hold my hand! I NEED my space.... even if it is a smaller space! :wink:

    I guess my experience in "teaming" helps me out. Try sharing your truck cab/sleeper with another guy for a week or more at a time.... you won't find THIS all that confining!! It's all about perspective!

    I'd say the WORST thing will be that SOME of you/us will need to learn to use your "inside voice!" Ha Ha! :wink:
    Remember... friends are few and far between.

    I'm sure you can find a ad-free forum to play on.....

    If this one begins to be a little much. If I ever get my site back up, I might build a different forum with-out the ads and with-out my slanted opinion.

    But in all reality, who would want that?



    Of course, I still got this one that I haven't done anything with......

    http://thedawghouse.freeforums.org/

    It's got a couple of ads, but not placed by me. I guess their from freeforums.org
    Deja moo. It's when you feel you have heard this BS before.

    I used to host my site on freeforums.org. It was too unstable. Sometimes it'd work, sometimes not, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

    So, now I'm paying $13/month for a fast dedicated server.

    I don't like it at all. It slows things down and it's too busy on the eye. I'd rather just pay for a subscription if they need money.

    That's just not very nice of them.

    Hate it!! It slows the board down, big time. I will consider leaving now, because it drives me nuts, and did I say slows the board down.

    The adblock for firefox speeds it up immensly. Hell, it should, considering it's only loading half of the page now,

    Big deal on the ads .... I could care less. As a business owner you have a responsibility to enhance your revenue stream. Last time I looked, this site was not registered as a 501c3 Non-Profit Corporation. More power to the owners to make money.....

    That may be true - but...

    If most of the people that use this site are using a connection that could be slow at times (aircard, slow wi-fi, etc) and move on, then exactly how are they going to make money if people aren't visiting the site?

    Using Internet Explorer or FireFox without Adblock, when my connection was a standard low-speed, it was taking almost a minute to load each and every page. With FireFox and Adblock, it takes about 5-10secs to load them.
