peeperpimp · 03-05-2007, 03:54 PM

I know I won't signup, It just Annoys Me

Aussie Rebel · 03-05-2007, 03:55 PM

I won't, that banner annoys the fuck outta me

SiMpLe · 03-05-2007, 03:58 PM

You guys won't push one of the industry's top programs because of a banner - wow

This is not about the program its about the banner its self and wether or not it works as far as getting sign ups, or is just Fucking annoying???...

After all there are better ways to get people to signup especiually for a leading program, than to annoy the fuck put of 'em

kristin · 03-05-2007, 04:07 PM

I like the banner, but Joel's face is too pretty to hit.

RawAlex · 03-05-2007, 04:11 PM

Nope, never would. I consider the banner to be very impolite, a Zango-ish interruption in my visits to this board. Anyone who is that willing to abuse my attention here will likely do something equally as dumb later.

You get one chance to make a first impression, that the impression I get is a group of people willing to get in my face to try to get me to sign up. If their products are good and such, they don't need it.

Answer is no.

Screaming · 03-05-2007, 04:13 PM

if something annoys me, im not going to devote my efforts towards it..

pocketkangaroo · 03-05-2007, 04:48 PM

If a company needs to do that kind of stuff to get my attention, I don't think they are right for me.

I signed up 3x

peeperpimp · 03-05-2007, 04:53 PM

K, np, Keep 'em cumin... I really wanna know how well this method of advertising / annoying people into signing up really works???

spacedog · 03-05-2007, 04:55 PM

If they used Franck instead, I'm sure their CTR would have been huge.

Was just wondering how many of you actually played the game?

Don't even know or care who's banner it is, as soon as I hear it, I hit refresh to get rid of it. It's a waste of space.

Well, not necessarily because of the banner, but because of the relationship with xxxtoolbar and the trojans and malware it installs.

Bama · 03-05-2007, 07:22 PM

Jon Clark - BANNED FOR LIFE · 03-05-2007, 07:33 PM

I could not figure out where the sound was coming from.... Then when I did, I knocked the guy out and at first thought I won something, once I found out I didn't win anything I was a bit disappointed...

I am turning of my ads now... I have a fresh format and havn't done that yet.. Thanks for reminding me! GFY rocks with out the loud ass banners

CaptainHowdy · 03-05-2007, 07:39 PM

Funny thing... I clicked on this thread the annoying banner popped up to validate your point LOL!

rowan · 03-05-2007, 07:44 PM

I didn't even know which company it was promoting until I saw it in another thread title. I just hit reload if I hear that stupid banner.

ztik · 03-05-2007, 07:47 PM

What site is it even for? I refresh instantly the 2nd it starts blasting loud noises and bells. Either way, they really should fire whoever created that stupid crap.

ztik · 03-05-2007, 07:48 PM

With that adblock thing can I block adds on certin sites? EX just gfy?

I have norton internet security and it blocks all ads... but I caan choose to show ads on a site if I want by clicking a button

Snake Doctor · 03-05-2007, 08:22 PM

ROFLMAO...as soon as I voted, the page refreshed and that stupid banner was there.

How's that for irony?

Snake Doctor · 03-05-2007, 08:25 PM

At least the annoying flash banners of the past didn't play sound unless you moused over them...this thing starts fucking blaring the second the page loads, it's fucking insulting if you ask me.

I'm not saying I'd never do business with a company that tried a marketing gimmick like this...BUT...if after hearing all of the webmasters complain they still leave it up, then I know they don't give a fuck what webmasters want and I'll never send them a single click.

starpimps · 03-05-2007, 08:28 PM

worse banner ever

Theo · 03-05-2007, 08:56 PM

it's annoying a lot

Jon Clark - BANNED FOR LIFE · 03-05-2007, 09:37 PM

You'd think after all the complaints that are made about sound banners people would stop using then all together....

No, you'd think that the OTHER sponsors would talk to GFY about not allowing them since more and more people use adblockers to just block all of the GFY banners. The bad apples always ruin it for the others.

I'd love to unblock the GFY banners, as I like to see what people are promoting but not when the sound ones scare the shit out of me in the middle of the night.

samkdady · 03-06-2007, 01:37 AM

I think the point was to get the attention. They did a great job by looking at the threads in here talking about them.

Great promo it is all about marketing

Ya great advertising, I've heard that fucking shitty thing 10 time now and still don't even know who's it is.

Excellent advertising, top notch...

Well, I guess there are different ways to look at this. I dont think if I want to relax I would come to gfy.com and if I wasn't relaxing than I would come here for business maybe.....or talk to my fela webmasters. Than I guess it is ok to see a fucken annoying banner like that. Maybe I'm wrong.

Ya I agree,good point... cause of those stupid banners alot of us block ads & the other WM programs sufer....

to the point where eventually it would be pointless to even advertise on GFY then of course GFY will also start loosing money aswell...

In a long term perspective it would be more beneficial to everyone to NOT accept those type of ads that start playing on their own & blasting away without mouse hovering over

I didn't forget... if U block ads theres no point in adding that option in the poll U wont even now what your voting on / what this thread is about

But they missed the point entirely, what good is getting your attention if U don't even know who the ad bellongs to or what its about...

A great job would have been getting peoples attention and embedding theyr loggo / company name in your head so eventually you'd cum check 'em out...

This ad doesn't do that...

As U can see sum don't even know what type of company its for and the annoyance of it malkes people just wanna run away from it instead of clicking it and finding out

but this time I actually tried to find out / give it a chance and guess what...

you'd have to play it like a fuckin video game before it'll even let U clic on it...

Then it'll tell U what its about & then It'll tell U click here...

It just waisted my time
