Advertisements showing
Monday, February 25, 2013 by CarGuy1 | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
It looks like the forums got a bit of work today. Am I the only subscriber getting ads?

No, not 'previous' anything.
Curiously it is Wincustomize.com which enabled you to have a computer to access Wincustomize.com.
The least one could do would be to be willing to help support the site through which they have benefitted so much.

Quoting LightStar, reply 19I am a current subscriber ID, and I am seeing the same ads, even after logging out and back in.
Ok, I'll add this to the forum issues so someone can look at it.
Currently using a portable apps version of Chrome and the site works almost normally. Here and there a button out of place, but mostly good.

Jafo I am supporting the site. I'm here, I contribute. The site didn't help me get this computer other than being the place we all talked about what we were doing or going to do. The awesome friends I have here made this computer possible. We could have done this via email.
And as I said before, I am sure I am not the only one that uses Adblock. It is a top ten extension. Ads are intrusive and annoying.

That one little ad isn't going to make or break anything. I'm neither offended nor annoyed by it even if I'm not supposed to see it. As long as everything works.....most of the time. I don't understand what the big deal is. I could understand if they were plastered all over the place but they're not. One dinky little ad....easy to ignore.

I'm not going to belay the point but it was only through our consent to allow the posted request for help, AND the site's connection to the members which enabled responses that facillitated your machine. Similar done via email would be considered 'spam' by most people...

If you say so. I doubt some of the people I talk to on WC would agree. I have talked to them about this computer over email, they didn't consider it spam.

I am also seeing advertisements and I am a subscriber. I'm not wanting to make a mountain out of a mole hill, as someone has said that one little ad isn't going to hurt anything. I'm simply basing my opinion on the selling point used to attract paying subscribers as being "Ad-Free" browsing. It's just a matter of principle on my part. -- Ace --

Due to the thread, yes.
Had you cold-called you maybe would see a very different response.

Ace...it's clearly one of the bits-still-broke that happens when other-bits-are-fixed.
I'm sure it'll be resolved [only to have all the text posted upside down]...

the ads are still happening so I'd like to be reimbursed for my subscription fee. I figure you owe me $0.0272602739726027/day that the ads are seen. Be quick about it this adds up fast.
oh, almost forgot
