: Pro Sierra Club Banner on the Pirate BBS???
Belly Dragger 01-01-2002, 09:50 PM http://m.doubleclick.net/viewad/421314/adc_es_earth3.gif
What is this? A banner ad for EarthShare who sleeps with Sierra Club. They have links to many eco-nazi pages on their website and I am just flabbergasted to have found this as a banner ad on the Pirate BBS.

I can understand the reason for the banner ads, pays the bills and the fact that you want everyone to pay 20 bucks to "not see the ads", I'm sorry but I'll be damned if I'm going to give 2cents to anyone who displays pro Sierra Club information on their website.
Belly Dragger 01-01-2002, 09:52 PM If that wasn't enough I get this banner after I post!

Yeah, we are a bunch of posers.... :rolleyes:
I don't pick what banners run on this site. An AD AGENCY does. I will work on getting them removed, but it is extremely difficult, and takes me time.

RustyNailJustin 01-02-2002, 08:33 AM I wonder if sierra club is laughfing their asses off that this is on here?:barf:
Rubicrawler 01-02-2002, 09:08 AM Funny- I don't get pop-up banners.
H8monday 01-02-2002, 09:08 AM Hopefully, there is a Blue Ribbon Coalition banner, with ARCA, CA4WDC pop ups, over on the Sierra Club web site.
brutus 01-02-2002, 09:15 AM GOT MY RED STAR :D :D :D :D :D :D
Belly Dragger 01-02-2002, 10:12 AM Umm, not talking about the pop-ups. Although I hate them as well. These are just in the upper left hand corner of the screen.
Does the red star also eliminate these ads?
HOWEVER the point isn't about 20 bucks or a star it's about PRO-GREENIE on this website. Just doesn't sound good. Sortof like piss in your cheerios.
I like the idea of ARCA, Blue ads on the Sierra club website.

I understand your point, and I agree with you. But until this board is self supported by it's members (yeah- the Red Star's) Lance must look to Ad agencies for funding. And, as he stated in his reply to your post, he doesn't control the ad content. I'm sure he'll try to get these ads removed but he may be locked in.
If we all pony-ed up $20.00, the banner ads would go away.

Yes. :)

Hmmm I didn't know that the $20.00 would actually make the banners go away So you guys actually don't see them!!
My bad; I thought the 20 would just GO TOWARDS GETTING THEM OFF THE BB and I thought that was kinda lame but HEY this might be worth the cash....

Yes. :) Lance I paypal'd you. Just so none of these fawkers think I'm cheap.
I still don't like the idea of greenie stuff on this website.

It is worth the time, IMHO. That's what the big Webdaddy bucks are for right? :flipoff2:

Me neither, but then again there is a ton of crap on the banners I hate. That damn little camera for one, I swear I must have seen that 100 times in the past few days alone. :mad: But what can you do when someone else picks what is on there? Maybe we should buy space and show up on some greenie sites. That would be funny as hell. :laughing:
Moab Austin 01-02-2002, 11:03 AM now you got me thinking about this again!
at first when I saw them I thought it was hillarious..
and still kindof do...
here is why-they are supporting this site so all of us (the enemy) can get together and wheel.. lol
plus I am sure they paid some decent $$ to place the ad with that agency and I doubt they are getting ANY return hahaha
I mean really, I have click alot of banners for sheer curiosity to what they were about. but NEVER one of those...ANYONE ELSE??
hahaha I laugh with lance all the way to the bank...
I think it totally underminds there goal. I wish some of the people who donate money could see this banner on here.
I am environmentally concious - but not nor never have been a greenie with hiden agenda.
I think their banner here is like one of us trying to sell 44" boggers to www.riceburner.com

Ditto!!! I don't wanna see that SHIT!!!
.......and now that I'm gonna be getting my red star I think we should make the second Driveline drawing of each month (he is still doing two right :confused: ) STRICTLY for EXTREME members :D:p :flipoff2: if you don't have one:flipoff2:
Cutter 01-02-2002, 01:17 PM just don't click on the damn banners! This site gets something from the ad agency, if they (the ad people) want to put an ad that we don't click on, it's thier wasted money and time! Hell, I wish all the pop ups were for porn too, but whay can we do...besides, if we all clicked on the pop-ups, who'd be here to read yall's words of wisdom?:jeep3:
Cliffy [JD] 01-02-2002, 03:52 PM I don't know if the solution is that simple. If nobody is clicking on any of the ads I think they pull the ads and then MAYBE THEIR SUPPORT IE: CASH
RustyNailJustin 01-02-2002, 06:55 PM You should be LYAO because the sierra club is helping finace the Pirate site
This is a good point I did not really think about at first I was just anoyed the earth share stuff was on here. I now understand that Lance does not pick what adds run...Now I think that he should not try to get it removed cause its just a waste of money for earth share to advertise on here.
BillaVista 01-02-2002, 07:07 PM I don't think we should ignore the grenie adds at all.
On the contrary all 9000 odd of us should repeatedly and continually click on them so that through some convoluted way, the greenies finance our hardcore wheeling board.
Hillarious,
