I know the first thing I noticed is that the "ad-free" skin isn't available. Might be 2-3 weeks until everything is straightened out.

I'm sad and lonely. Someone please hug me

No ad free skin option, though. Maybe that's for "Lifetime" members?

I like to laugh when they are not relevant to the words they are selected like "Users" goes to carbon fiber parts, and the best one, "Volvo Parts" goes to a dentist who does whitening and straightening!

only when i come here....

it's really pretty silly to expect that withholding so-called 'content' is driving ad revenue up. i would be nice to know that my inconvenience is contributing to supporting the site rather than just satisfying the need for a gimmick.

I haven't been getting mail notification of threads since this roll-back started. Dunno if it's just me, or if it's part of the upgrades.

There. To be fair I refunded the remainder of your supporting membership. Now you do not have to worry about when the ad-free skin will be up or what I do with my personal time.

I'm confused. You seem to be arguing the wrong point to the wrong person. No one likes advertisements, but they subsidize the cost of operation. So, without the advertisements we'd probably all be required to pay membership dues. I do appreciate the option given to us here, where we can choose to pay-out of the ads, but as you can see it is temporarily out of service.

You must refuse to watch TV, listen to the radio, or read magazines as well? Hell the hallways of your office are lined with advertisements for their own products.

WOW Mr. Linden you are a head case! wacko.gif I was just asking when you were going to get your act together and get this done, since Wednesday will make it 3 weeks. And I'm tired of seeing ads for the Torbonaltor! But never the less, I'm glad to get my money back, but what about the PP fee you owe me! dry.gif

How is you bitching in a public forum a private matter between you and chuck especially when this is a matter we all currently deal with?
I think calling Reid a leach is an amazingly retarded accusation. While I cannot speak for his financial situation, if he receives money from his parents, he only leeches off some hard working parents, and beyond that I believe he is in college. I'd hardly consider someone attempting to educate themselves a leech, especially someone who is by your assumptions living on his parents money. So if we've assumed right, he takes money from his family generates tax dollars for the presumed job he'll work later in life so that your government job can pay you.
