McclaudEagle Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Doesn't mean you can't make a design for them besides words. If you were interested in making the shirts, you could start a competition or something about making the best looking T-shirt design that doesn't have copyrighted material on it.

ub3rman123 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 We did that earlier, but I never saw where it went.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaldir Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I am agreed completely. Why should they force us to watch it, we need an option to skip it. The whole point of advertising is to get someone to buy your product, but what if we dont WANT your product? Why should we have too watch your ad every bloody time I want to download something? How much difference in money would the advertiser get if 50 people watched and no one bought, than no one watched at all? The nexus used to be a brilliant site, now it has fallen into the money-making big cat that so many good sites have, like youtube, for example. If your going to do this, you may as well make the site a damn paysite.<div><br></div><div>If this continues, LOTS of people like me, will just leave the site, and you wont be getting so many unique visitors, and hence, less money from advertisers.</div> I honestly don't think Robin earns that much money on The Nexus - at least not as much as he deserves!Just like anyone else, he got bills to pay, and unlike most others of us, those bills are HUGE!!

Fatalmasterpiece Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 It may be beneficial for the Nexus to develop it's own theme/logo, something for branding. Getting a good laugh at imagining Dark0ne in a rap music video, swimming in money earned on this "big cat" web site. I bet he rubs elbows with the execs at Youtube all the time. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanmaniac Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I'm fine with video ads before a download; however, there are some serious coding issues that have to be addressed with this setup. Firefox (3.6.13 with AdBlock Plus installed BUT TURNED OFF) does not even play the video, and Chrome plays it but fails to display the download link. Once again, I am happy to put up with video ads, especially considering Dark0ne's incredible service to us, but at least fix the code so I don't have to use IE.

evilneko Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I'll give away a little secret. Hit refresh if the download link fails to display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderCrazy Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Here's an idea for the shirts.Design a logo for Nexus (Perhaps hold a poll / competition) and put that on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark0ne Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I support completely. Robin, remove those ads! I shall remove them for you completely in exchange for 2 of the queen's pounds and 49 of the queen's pennies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaldir Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I support completely. Robin, remove those ads! So basically, you support the downfall of this site... Kudos to you.... NOT! ---- And as Robin so nicely said now, it is VERY cheap to go premium! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
