blink.gif No. Where is it? Ads by google?

laugh.gif LOL I hate those flashing ads too (doesn't everybody?),but if there is anything even worse,it must be pop-ups.Good that i have pop-ups blocked wacko.gif

Anyway,congratulations on the new add (even though i didn't notice it huh.gif),and i hope that money income from the ad will partitionaly be spent on improving Chorrol.com servers smile.gif

The ad is up there, right under the header with Bill & Bob. That tiny text ad.

And the money will be spent on running the server (just one!) as it is right now. Don't believe for one second we're making any profit with it wink.gif

Anyway, back on topic, yeah. I forgot about popups because I haven't had any in ages, thanks to Mozilla's blocker and a very extensive Adblock configuration smile.gif

That's great!
I'm glad to hear that.
I hope that flood control will be regulated in the near future.....That message can really be anoying mad.gif.I wish you(and the whole Chorrol.com team) to make more ads,and invest the money in Chorrol.com
Oh BTW i just spoted the ad.It kind of blends in the background (which suits me just fine)

I'm ok with ads if that's what it takes to keep great free sites like this one running.

I frequented a flight sim site some time ago where users could make a small donation to avoid the ads. Those who didn't donate still had a random ad banner (but only one) on top of every page. That worked too... smile.gif

The only one I use and care about (I tried out a lot) is the Adblock plugin. Lets you blot out entire address ranges using wildcards so you don't get ads from them. You have a little button at the bottom right of your browser window that opens a list of files that are part of the current page, and you can just click on the ones you never want to see again, and you won't. It's nice. And of course there's 'Adblock this picture/iframe/whatever'...

Damn talk about a rough day....
Today was the first day of end of year exams and crap. I was sure I would flunk the math portion, but was puzzled at how easy it was.
AND
I have been informed of my girl moving... Supposedly about an hour away... sad.gif
It really sucks. sad.gif

yeah, se's movin.. well i dont know where exactly, because of some court case fiasco. her family got threatened and so they don't feel safe there anymore.. somthing like that, it really bites.

and it's not like i'm worried whether she would stay loyal or anything.. i'm worried about how loyal i can stay without seeing her but maybe once every 2-3 weeks sad.gif

I'm really torn to pieces and don't know what to do...

That's too bad sad.gif
I kind'a know how you feel. My boyfriend went to England for some months ago to work. Ok, he's not gonna be there forewer, he will be back this summer.
But yeah, it sucks allright. I don't even recall how he looks like anymore. I've only had time and money to visit him once, and he's been visiting once too.

Well, an hour away is not that long. I'm sure you could get someone to drive you or something, even one visit once a month is enough to keep a relationship together. Just make sure you call each other smile.gif

OMGZ peeps.. School really sucked today.. (thats fairly normal come this late in the year) and so I was rather down today, even though it was my burfday.

But i go to the gas station with a few of my buddies to pick up something to drink.. and I see two of my friend girls fighting each other in the MIDDLE of the STREET. I was like wtf.. And my buds girl got beat up pretty badly and he was really pissed cause that other chick tossed a cig in his car (nice street car) and kicked the side of it.

So yea, today was awesome... Reminds me of the gladiator days biggrin.gif
