This banner ad that says "Get the next generation of smileys!" is really annoying. It plays an "Omigod! No way!" audio file every time you load a page. This could be potentially very embarrassing for people in public or at work.

Ive always hated ads with audio. If I'm listening to music I don't want someone else's audio interrupting me.

At least some advertisers have the decency to set them up so you have to mouse over or click them to hear it, thats a bit better.

This may be the first thread started by a moderator in here that had a complaint.

I think I remember Xeo or Lateralus making one once before... can’t remember what it was about, though.

Anyway, I’m pretty sure ads that play sounds are against forum policies, so I suspect Hood or Gorg will wield their mighty swords over this one soonishly.

we can take it out if you post what the ad was for, it's source, etc.

All I know is what I put in the OP.
