Am shocked to see that certain posts in this forum are now getting attacked by irrelevant promotional drivel which side swipes the comment it has flung itself upon in other words spam spam spam spam....How long before every post gets treated the same way [it happened on Bebo]. Time to move the forum again guys this is a sickening change of circumstance! In the meantime one can always edit as I have done here to separate the ad from the comment and make a copy /paste to precede all posts Anyone know how to remove the new formating that stops the line running across the page? Perhaps Peter could have a word to Yuku and if we can't get the junk mail [that no one pays attention to 'cause its so irritating] removed or made far less intrusive at least get the sentence length restored. After all this forum hosting is paid for and eventually no one will be bothered reading it if the text continues to be mutated into Japanese style]. He had discovered a pattern within the jumble but still no reasons existed for it..... Last Edited By: Stephen Kloys December 14, 2008 03:01:42. Edited 33 times.

I'm inclined to agree that it'd be more fitting to move the forum elsewhere, if possible, and chances are this is already under consideration, but I imagine it'd be quite an exercise. I wonder if it'd even be possible to migrate the content of the forum elsewhere? I loathe, hate and detest this unwelcome development. It spoils some of the incredible creativity that characterises many of the posts on the forum Second Star, are you out there somewhere?

Sorry about that.I will migrate this post over there. The worst partt of the situation is the breaking up of sentences to fit an unwanted ad. Unforgiveable and shows a total lack of intelligence on behalf of the airheads who "thought" of it. Touble with using the latest version of Firefox is it disables Real Player [deliberately - it told me it was going to do it without my permission] and wipes out sound on YouTube in certain circumstances which is why I had to remove it [reluctantly].

People are now starting to talk about not posting at all, and I think they have a point. Unfortunately I have a feeling boycotts and protests won't wash with yukky, they probably couldn't give a damn. With ezboard we had a community chest and paid for the privilege of no ads but I seem to remember that when we went over to yukky that ceased to be necessary. Until now, I guess. It would be the answer, and a swift one. I'm happy to donate as soon as! Second Star, are you out there somewhere?

However we need Peter or Sean to set that up asap. It's not easy for me to give away a secret...

For an example of how ridiculous its getting check out post 6 in Kate Bush General Discussion thread "Kate Bush and Lack of Publicity" where an advert breaks up a post into over a hundred two word lines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(See top of our forums main page). We average about 5000 Pageviews a day here at present, so I've given an approximate subscription time with each payment option. If we aim for $54 now I can pay for 72 days and then into the new year we can see where we are with contributions for another $54 renewal payment. It works out as .75 cent a day to run the forum and about $270 a year (cheaper than the EZBoard Gold Community renewals). $6.00 USD - 30000 Pageviews of Ad-Free (approx 6 days Ad-Free based on current forum usage) $18.00 USD - 90000 Pageviews of Ad-Free (approx 18 days Ad-Free based on current forum usage) $30.00 USD - 180000 Pageviews of Ad-Free (approx 36 days Ad-Free based on current forum usage) $54.00 USD - 360000 Pageviews of Ad-Free (approx 72 days Ad-Free based on current forum usage) Seán www.katebushnews.com
