I have been away in poland for a bit, i have just come back to find those f*cking key word ads lighting up certain words in green, so that when you move your mouse over them, they bring up an annoying advert!

Is this what admin have been doing instead of looking after the site and updating stuff like pictures and banners?

I hate websites that do this, and if it gets worse i will only come here for the odd knowledge base question, i will not frequent it for a bit of a laugh cos the ads annoy me so much.


In two minutes on the site i have had 4 ads for a honds type s!


WTF this is a subaru forum, take your advertising and **** off with it!


How does everyone else feel about this, is it another example os SN going downhill after the sell out?

I use Adblock Plus for Firefox. It is very good

customisegoogle is another top addon for firefox, that gets rid of the google ones as well

what would scooby do

not seen any ads on here for two years..


Firefox, adblock and using hosts file works a treat..

what would scooby do

**** me, just loaded scoobynet up in internet explorer - how slow is that !! what a mess with all the adverts..no wonder people get hacked off trying to get decent content on screen !!

I got told off about running such programs as apparently it loses SNet revenue. Without that revenue SNet would not be the place it is today

So please everyone turn off your adblockers etc. and give a bit back to what is the loving, caring community of ScoobyNet.

You know it makes sense

(and it upsets the Webmaster if you don't )

i have not used IE on SN since webby last told me off

flat4 to the floor

so the main page stays the same for the amount of time i have been a sn member.yet something that makes em money gets added into it as a priority no doubt.anyone else sick of logging on to see the same white impreza day in day out?its not just the revenue that makes a forum site its the members that use it.remember no members = no revenue!!so in reality as members you should have a say as to what goes on to the site and what doesnt.even more for the guys who pay to subscribe and no doubt dont see any dividend from it.
