    You may have noticed, that the small MSN ad is back. But now it's limited to 3 pops per IP. I tested it and it works. I hope these three pops are not too annoying. Let me know when you get them again (shouldn't be before 24h at least)

    Thanks for your support.

    PS: Thanks to this ad, a new server is coming by the end of this week. (Friday, Saturday)!

    pretty harmless compared to server-hangovers, i think. and nothing compared to this "legendary" skip-this-ad by imagevenue.

    If it helps get a new server then I'm all for this, it's a very small price to pay.

    (Awaits 10 threads in the next 3 hours from noobs quering the pop-up situation).

    if only the ads were true and a hot chick really wanted to talk with me :(

    new server = easily ignored ads for a while, no problem.

    thanks for the heads up cayne

    Fuck me, I thought that was to do with realplayer, didn't even read what the pop up said. I cant see the problem with it, especially if it speeds things up.

    since i first got this yesterday i have been getting problems with my cookies. if i navigate away from a site for too long i have to log in again when i come back. i've been on phun 3 times today and had to log in three times in the last hour.

    anyone else getting this?

    Not me.

    And I didn't see the ad today at all. So pretty fair to me. Just ignore it the three times it pops and after that you should have no problems with it at all.

    But of course, let me know if you experience problems with it.

    I don't mind the 3 pop ups. if they are generating some revenue for phun that is awesome.

    cheers cayne.

    It seems I'm generating more than most since I get this pop-up with each click here at Phun. The 3 pop limit isnt applying to me at all. If it goes away soon, its worth all the clicks for the new revenue.
