Audiogon has gone too far, too fast with the ads!!!


I enjoy this site and completely understand and support their monetizing it more with ads, but it’s gone too far, too fast IMHO.  First it ran far too slowly, which they thankfully have improved, but we’re still left with ads popping up all over the place to the point of being overly intrusive, distracting, and annoying at least in my experience.  Past that, and even worse, if I try to post a response longer than a few sentences the site often refreshes and I lose what I’ve written, and that’s even with me proactively saving it as I’m typing (it happened twice while I typed this!!!) — this rarely happened before the advertising deluge. I just wish they’d back it off a bit at least until they can work out whatever limitations are causing these frequent and very frustrating issues.  Or maybe it’s just me?

I guess you all haven't seen the ferocity of ads on some other audio forums....avs, quadrophonicquad, etc. Personally, I find some ads useful, temu sexdoll ads aside. It doesn't bother me.

Oh, you’re the one. 🙄🤪

I hardly ever post on here because I’ll be writing a response and all of a sudden an ad will pop up and refresh my page making me have to rewrite everything. Garbage unfortunately 

Thanks audiogon staff for their restablishment of the previous Thread "Hello Audiogon"  ...

It is greatly appreciated...

No other site is so well managed...

For the publicity it is easy : uBlock-origin ...

I use Firefox but i use  "ublock origin" i did not even remember what is a pop-up or and ads. Someone want to explain it to me ? smiley

 

 

I am less concerned with publicity than by the deleting of an entire thread where discussion were passionate but polite. "Audiogon" thread   OP with thesummit and Amir...

i learned a lot discussing with Amir...

I dont understand Audiogon action here ...

They fear ASR  competition ?
