So this forum is free and now I see ads popping up. I guess we just have to deal with it?
Sorry bout that.

I noticed that when my speakers started yelling at me earlier, almost made me jump. We can deal. They are easy to ignore when they don't yell at you...haha.

Yup, and if any adds slip under the radar you just right click and "block image".
