Yeah, kinda annoying ads, isn't it?
Simple solution:
Firefox, rightclick on ad and:

Bye bye ad.

It's not intended.
And, please don't block the ads.
They're what allows Abandonia's owners to pay for the server and bandwidth.
No ads = no Abandonia, basically.

Chrome also struggles with the Ads , and explorer seems to cope perfectly, just needs a little tweaking.

Yes, but having big-ass ads stick out on the right of the forum wont support anything.

Only those who put themselves annoyingly in the way.
Me thinks it's a normal human reaction, what annoys you gets shredded.

What's the next step? Will we have to install yet another crappy addon to be able to surf the site with special flashy ads?
