Annoying DOWNLOADPIGGY.COM banner

I realize they want to advertise but do they have to stick it in my face everytime i click on a thread link?

 

Can they make it any larger? Its not even the standard 468x60. Its even bigger than that. WTH.

 

the piggy is so cute. hehe

I don't mind it, I'm even downloading it. Banner could be a bit smaller though.

 

i totally agree with you... but a pink tutu addon on that piggy addon would be nice. tra la la la la.

btw, im using maxthon 2.1.5 and download piggy is just an image to me, no link.

 

install 'adblock plus' -- that is what i use to block images.
(for firefox and seamonkey)

 

I dont see how this is actually a paid advertisement as the program is free to download.... doesnt make a list.... so the program must have something else in it thats blackhat and earning the owner a commission on all purchases (only valid thing i can see)....

harro or alex care to enlighten us?

 

Yep, AdblockPlus is a must. Took me 10 seconds to block the piggy. Sorry piggy

 

How can you be a marketer and not be FASCINATED with other people's ads?

I don't watch TV, I watch commercials and tolerate the sappy, unfunny shit in the middle called programming.

You people are weird. I love the pig. I may adopt him.

 

In my best Homer singing voice> spiderpig, spiderpig, does whatever a spiderpig does.

 

I still dont see the point in the ad, I cant even click on it

 

I clicked on it but it ran through

Code:

So how are they even getting credit for the click???

 

My mouse doesnt show that its a link, i cannot click on it, im using IE7

 

I am curious as to how it's being monetized. I swear there better not be any malware elements involved. Doing something like that to your own forum members is TOO blackhat. :

I installed it but for the life of me I can't find the pig when I go to youtube.

 

yea i found it annoying at first, but now im startin to like the little guy. Anyway if it gets annoying just block it.

 

yeah adblock stops them right in there tracks yeah its a little to big to be honest before it got blocked

 

I hate that pink annoying banner at the top of every thread I click....once should be enough. It is really distracting and I just wish it could be removed as an experiment gone bad. I was happy to see this thread as I was just thinking to myself how incredibly annoying the dang banner is.

My 2 cents

 

Maybe its daves site?
