Jupiter media gone too far?

[aderkach]

Jupiter media is making antionline.com a ****ing wasteland. The geniuses at JM now have ad-words at antionline .
I am designating this thread a petition against the number of ads on antionline.com! Below is some software to help fight all of the goddamn ads!

1. Add http://mjxads.internet.com/RealMedia/ads/ (63.236.18.118) to your HOSTS file (/etc/hosts or %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts or %SystemRoot%\hosts depending on your OS)

2. Add foo (63.211.210.221) to the HOSTS file also, this should stop all the damn popup words... Good luck!

EDIT: I found a list of the words they use, they are as follows in a few different formats

Also, I have made a proximitron rule for killing this stupid script: See ithere

It's simple, but it works

Um, HELLO?! Stay with me here...because I'm getting tired of explaining this. We don't have paid memberships here and it costs money to run a site...so how do you expect them to pay for it? There's tons of sites out there with ads, get a blocker and get over it if it bothers you that much, but I'll guarantee you Jupiter Media didn't invest in a site for it to become nothing more than a money pit.

Heh heh, these are gettin' old.

Goddess: They do not need the money to run AO, with the money they ripped off JP for they could run AO for a few years. They need it to run internet.com

Hey guys ive got an idea if you think this is such a crappy site then just go the **** away. Yea i admit that there a few things that have happened that i dont like but if you want your idea of a utopian website then learn HTML find a host and feel free. I gotta go with greek goddess on this one. Id rather have to look at a few adds then have to shell out monet every month. YICS is now up so if you dont like it here go there to bitch about JM.

Since this issue is resolved, I'm closing the thread.
