Is there a way to get rid of these from my life (clearly "don`t come here" is the obvious response). I post good links, I am a nice person, I post useful detailed responses to other posts... but all this ad link stuff is starting to get really annoying
So is there a nice poster type rank between paying and contributor?
Flame away as required but I think it is a fair request on my part :S
Can you be more specific on what you mean by "ad link stuff"?
Also, I think the limit right now is at 10/day? Seems pretty reasonable for free stuff.
I know you were looking for suggestions other than donating, but if you enjoy the site, a donation for a year is less than a $1/month and gives you unlimited downloads. Otherwise, to answer your question, no, there isn't an 'in-between' rank.
The extra tabs "Astraweb", the extra buttons on NZB posts which are really just more ads.... yes the 10 a day limit is fine (can use combine option which doesn`t seem to have a per/post limit), didn`t really need more :)
Anyhow you answered the question perfectly well so I`ll just carry on ignoring them or I guess I can always write a new filter in AdMuncher to get rid of them anyway :D
Cheers

Or you could just click on some of them once and a while. To, you know, support the site and members that hand deliver your every entertainment need.
You've made a grand total of 23 posts since September 2008. That's almost 4 per year. Personally, I'd put you in a special 'Parasite' class. A group that can fuck the fuck off. :dry:Quote:

Remember those 23 posts don't reflect what he contributes in/to the nzb comment section. He does in fact post meaningful stuff :)Quote:

I didn`t expect a warm welcome to the post but that other response was a bit OTT, anyhow thanks for your kind words makes me not want to just f* off etc :DQuote:

Does that actually get rid of the random buttons/tabs? Not looking at banners as they are blocked anyway.... please notice the way I am NOT doing the incite for flame warQuote:

I get it, and your points are valid. The vets are tired of the shit posts and I am too. Just trying to keep this thread from blowing up.Quote:

This isn't a bittorrent tracker. We don't ban ppl for speaking their mind. Continue on if you wish. Move on if not. Sometimes heated discussions are what foster good debate.Quote:

I came on strong, but yours seemed to be just another pathetic whine from those who cannot be bothered to do anything but bitch.
What is it you actually contribute that you believe would warrant you special treatment- beyond the normal free use of the site, free downloads, etc.?
You say "thanks" a lot, or something? :unsure:
Yes it did if you don`t hang out in the NZB section. Sorry to offendQuote:

In short, you are using something provided to you for free, and you want to be removed from any and all support of the site because you use it more than others. :mellow:
Yes you have many posts, and you are a very active forum member. I [bold]do[/bold] support via posting NZB downloads.Quote:

Gribley you seem like a reasonable woman so I'm assuming that you're with me when I suggest we take it upon ourselves to hunt and the evil owner of this ridiculous forum and strangle him by his pencil thin neck until he gives us what is rightfully ours.
Afterwards if we are feeling especially empowered then we can celebrate by offing ourselves.:)
Also on some days I feel that I am really the only thing happening on this site so ergo this site and I can honestly tell you that you have done jackshit for me,you whining bitch.
However being basically Mother Teresa with muscles I may be wiling to overlook your continued uselessness and recent insolence if you shoot me a few bucks.
The bonus is that in doing so you will also be showing the youth of the nation that money solves all problems.:)
Yes again please kill this thread.... thanks for the proof of pointless magnet this has caused :SQuote:

Don`t get me wrong I like the word play etc (directed at me, whatever). I want this thread to die because I had my answer at the top so the rest of this is just pointless and yes super fun to banter around but does that make a post worth anything more?? you`ve been here a long time so do you think this is adding anything?

You'll get me to stop choking Idol when you pry his cold, lifeless body from my hands.
And out from under my boots.
At this rate I can really bump up my post count.... guess that is a bonus
I know. Now you're averaging like 6 per year. :PQuote:
