Ads - Snowboarding Forum

**truebluefan** · 05-13-2009, 09:35 PM

For those of you that have seen the ads, I am aware of what they have been doing.

Due to ongoing problems with our Texas data-center, the sports sites are
experiencing access issues due to timeouts in fetching advertisements
from those affected server as well as higher level DNS issues.

Sometimes ads dont load at all and just show code.

Not cool. So sorry.

I don't see any with firefox, but then again I adblock the living crap out of anything that moves.

At work with IE, the ads on this site are almost always screwy one way or the other.
