Trolling above the level of "Minorities all need to die. Discuss."

Now, that happens here on Poly occasionally. But there are far better trolls as well, and the community is big enough to actually have some interesting things turn up every now and then in the various on-topic fora. Overall, Poly's great value for money.

And Markos, would you please tell us if it would be possible to pay for an entirely add-free style? I know I'd probably go for it.

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

If you just type in the address and let vBulletin turn it into a complete url you get the vBulletin scripted popups. Even right-clicking and opening in a new window invokes the popups because the generated address uses the php redirect.

To avoid it you must type in the {url}{/url} coding and the user must right-click and open in a new window. I habitually open any link that way, just because I hate having to wait for pages to reload on returning.

Pythagoras, don't you check your PMs?

unfortunately not possible at this period of time. what i have notived though on mozilla is that the redirect pages ni the end take the focus back on them if you dont try to close the pop-ups. so while one of the two popups is supposed to be show in front of you, it ends up working as a pop-under

So why do the pop-ups come with Downloads?

Doesn't happen on other boards Mark.

are you questioning about the technical side of the matter or the site's decision for it?

well, there was also the option of having pop-ups on every single visit you make on the main page but we thought it was too much
