Don't block innocent ads! It hurts webmasters all around the world!
I tend to block only those that disrupt the flow of the page, that is, ads that are being intrusive.
(You don't really notice ads on top of a page, do you?)

I will play a song on the world's smallest violin for all the webmasters who can't afford their sites.

All they do is suck up my bandwidth, especially those stupid flash ads. I don't want a free iPod.

What they do is give you a free membership to this board ... That's how webmasters gather the bucks to keep this going!

I'd bet real money that if we suddenly had to pay $25.00 a year to post here, you'd be complaining your fool head off.

Really... it's a minor inconvenience that provides a huge benfit... get over it.

Use Flashblock. Those flash ads are intrusive and annoying and they suck up CPU like crazy.

I'm sure they will appreciate it!

+1 for mentioning Flashblock. That incredibly simple extension has saved me more headache than any other that I can think of. (Though Firebug and Adblock Plus are invaluable too)

I wouldn't pay a dime to access this site, none of you are employees of cprogramming.com to my knowledge. Any questions that are asked are just answered by other people. If the site provided it's own tech experts to answer questions, that'd be different.

So, I should take it then, you see no value in this site whatsoever...
You think the server time and internet access used for this site is free?
Moreover; you seem to think that because we volunteer to help our help is meaningless.

I'm guessing you probably should give that a lot more thought.

whoa.....you might want to tread carefully with that train of thought.
