the casino advert does the same too just not quite as bad....its soooooooooo annoying when you are about to take that crucial shot.... why remove one and replace it with another that does the same ???....hhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

well my friend (who doesnt play FP) got sick of pop ups when he went into other websites.

I think he uninstalled flash playerX or something, I am not quite sure.

Now he doesnt get any pop ups and MOST ads are blocked out because it needs flash.

But he also has it so if you clivk on the aear that requires flash, then it comes up (but i forgett what thats called)

Probably Flashblock for Firefox: http://flashblock.mozdev.org/

I'm unaware of an alternative for IE.

Which casino advert exactly suzukisonya? And is it above the game (normal layout) or to the left (widescreen layout)?

nick, it's the one above the game as you play it also seems to cause slow motion but not as bad like i dais as the o2 one...strange.....i don't half leave the table frustrated at times....lol

i am beginning to wonder if it's my computer as i seem to get slow mo with most of the ads with the exception of maybe 2 when playing someone...is there anything i can try at my end ???????

thats it...ive had enough ...sick of losin because these ads wont let me play.....be back when they're gone......

they wont go sonya, they create revenue.....see it as.......if your playing pool in a pub and someone distracts you and puts you off your shot....might seem easier to stomach...i know i do lol

Please can you do something about this o2 ad its driving me crazy, i cant even play when its on, it refreshes itself about every 5 mins and lags my comp soooo bad

can u turn the adverts off when the o2 1 comes on my game freezes all the time ?

i like it no 02 ad when u go wide screen))))))))))_ ty

Thats the only advert on here that gives me lag (02 Advert) i would benefit if you could replace the 02 advert with another one if thats possible...

Also wondering if your going to put the subscription for advert free on here because i'd like to help with funding on the site and also would benefit without the adverts aswell lol

Thanks anyways

Am I the only one who hasn't seen this errant O2 ad?

I haven't came across it either Cloone, but I play in widescreen and apparently it doesn't come up then?

how do you get widescreen???? and i agree with nickh87 a subscription would be good...and it might get rid of those who only come to the site to talk filth all the time...lol
and tidnab...thanks for the advice but it still hurts....lol

who was it that mentioned firefox????..............i could hug ya!!! xxx.....problem solved.....get a little lag but can take my shot and comp doesn't freeze..........i have tried evrything and this is first thing to make difference......seems to block out the bad stuff in the ad as it looks slightly different
Thank You
Thank You
And Thank You Again.......lol
love ya foreva

glad you got it sorted sonya! Im having no such luck though, is there any way of gettin rid of this ad without choosing the widescreen option because i cant use the widescreen version. I literally cant do anything when the ad is on my screen freezes it completely!

Nick or anyone...help is needed, please!


Ive even now downloaded firefox and tried the widescreen version and its still not working, i just want to get rid of this ad cause i cant play anymore

surely you will need a widescreen monitor to play the widescreen version

i'm not actually playin widescreen...just downloading firefox worked for me...i also upgraded my java to 1.6 (although i haven't got a clue if that made any difference whatsoever) ......i soooooooooooo understand how frustrated u are though i was just about tearing my hair out.......
I also cleared upmy computer to create more memory space...cleaned disc, defragged,and ran my clean up program which removes cookies etc.....
I hope you guys find a solution soon.....
Thinkin of ya all
