In the past I really enjoyed this site, until these popup ads started appearing. They are just as bad if not worse than telemarketers. I understand the need to sell advertising space, but you don't need to block what I'm reading! I just want say to those in charge, I'm fed up, pissed off and done with this site. I'm leaving you for other Harley forums (that don't have these annoying ads).

I feel your pain. Here's what I did to limit the ads--Download Google Chrome as your web browser (free) and then download Ad Blocker for chrome (also free). Web browsing will be much more enjoyable at this site and others. A lot faster too.

Use google chrome or firefox browsers and utilize their adblock software. If you are talking about words that are highlighted in postings you can also disable that feature. It's been a while since I have had to do the last one but it starts with actually clinking on the highlighted link. I can't remember the process after that but maybe someone else will chime in.

I hope he sees these suggestions-he might not come back.

I thought the same thing. Little does he know that the ads are on other sites too. He'll be back. He'll want to know if he got a rise out of his thread.

I stop everytime, and I buy them one to drink with me !!!
