post release threads

Is there any way we can stop from seeing these things? They are always a few seconds behind the rest of the forum for loading and usually cause me to click the wrong link, very frustrating!

I wondered about those too. I agree; since they don't show up until a short time after the page has loaded, I end up clicking the wrong thing. And sometimes since there are more than one on a single page, I think they are actual threads. I thought we didn't have to deal with that stuff if we had a membership.

I don't see any of this, but I am running adblock.

What are you guys talking about?
Did this just happen with the server change?

I believe they mean the sponsor posts like "Help drive dollars to your school"

They show up around the top 5 posts in a thread..

Count yourself lucky then because I see them too. They're listed as threads and the one that Don is talking about is the third thread from the top of the GNAC forum.

Now, the PM's and the emails I get that are ad's (SPAM) are not appreciated.

But with supporter status and all the rest of the carp filtered out by adblock plus, the signal to noise ratio here is okay by me.

If I had to see all the rest I doubt I would login.
(If IB is listening I REALLY mean that)

Apparently Adblock Plus gets rid of them. I see them if I turn it off but not otherwise.
