Flashing ads in on the right side of this forum, is enough to make me not want to come here .......................

Am I the only one bugged by these flashing ads on the right side of the screen? --- I detect a loss of forum viewers. Maybe this is why.......

Nope, never see them. I contribute a few bucks to support the forum and the ads are eliminated.
Sal has to pay for the severs, software, and such and put time into it for our enjoyment. I'm willing to support it. No flashing ads.

Thank you for considering to support this Genesis owner and enthusiast community. As the busiest Genesis web site online, there's a great deal of responsibility that comes with keeping the site up and running at all times. This also costs a great deal of time and money on an on-going basis. The only way this site can continue to exist is through the financial support of our supporting members.

Just a reminder that while most of the forum communities out there have been acquired and are now run by one of two multi-million dollar corporations, I operate Genesis Owners dot com alone...

I agree. We all owe a large thank you to Sal. No one can wave a magic wand and create and run a forum. Thank you Sal!

Thank you for the kind words, guys. I appreciate your understanding and support.

@Cut-Throat can you share a screenshot of the ads you're referring to? I'm not crazy about flashing ads myself - but even though I'm set to see all ads, I'm not seeing flashing images. So I'd like to see what it is you're seeing. Flashing ads can certainly be distracting...

Sorry about that! -- Upon detailed investigation, I found that it was not the Ads flashing but my scroll bar on the right side of the screen. I took a video of this, but cannot attach it. It looks like a streak of white light that is going from the bottom of my screen to the top. And looking further into this problem, it is only occurring on one of my laptops, and works fine on my desktop and other laptops. So, this is my problem and you don't need to pursue this. It does only occur on this Web Page however. Again, Sorry for the bother.

Thank you for letting me know. Such a strange sounding issue. I do hope you get it resolved on the one laptop...
