Please do not get me wrong, I like them being up there but, when I am trying to go to a specific sponsor's site and it isn't in the rotation, I can sit for over 5 minutes waiting for it to show up.

 

I know we have now more sponsors than spots, but if I want to go to one I do not want to wait, so I go to my favorites tab instead. This defeats the purpose of trying to get the pass thru on the link.

 

Is there a way maybe to have a drop down that you could add in addition to the rotating banners? And hopefully the pass thru link could be the same, just a duplicate of the banner?

 

Just a thought....

 

PS Any word yet on being able to print an entire thread? (I may have missed it)

 

Thanks!

rtr12 has it right....all you have to do is refresh the page.  There is no reason for it to take 5 minutes for a sponsor's banner to show up.  They are all in rotation and the complete rotation is MUCH less than 5 minutes.  As a matter of fact, the banners for all the sponsors showed up (served) almost 40 million times this past month!!  Some folks just don't want to wait and we understand that but to those who wait, sometimes great things happen.  One reason why we have this forum for free is because the sponsors banners are being clicked on and the more clicks, the better it is for everyone here as well as our advertisers.  Down the road in the not too distant future, we will be offering other ways to get to the sponsors that still register clicks the same as going to the banners.....so PLEASE support the system for now as it will get better!!

 

Thanks!

Instead of refreshing the same page, it is actually easier to just click on some other page. If it's not there, click on another page. Within 30-45 seconds you'll find the ad you're looking for.

 

I am testing a beta version of the printer-friendly format for Hoopla this evening. It seems to work pretty well. I am not sure when Hoopla is going to release it, but it must be close!
