Can we do something about the ads that fail to load? they seem to be affecting the load time for the rest of the page.

i shouldn't need a third-party application to fix a problem which can be resolved properly.

Why wait for somebody else though when you can take of the issue yourself?

This problem is bizzarly stupid. Commercials that fail to work are ruining the forum experience??

So let me get this straight(as opposed to teh homoghey): The ads that pay for the website are so uber crappy that they don't even load??! If they pay for the ad space they should damn well guarantee that they don't cause the forums to be unreadable. If they don't pay the cut the ad mkay?
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

The propaganda ads at the bottom are hilarious.
