[JulesMaximus]

I just had this come through my computer speakers when I clicked on forums. WTF does that mean?

When I saw this post earlier, I thought Jules had gone batshit crazy...but it just happened to me too...is "batshit crazy" contagious?

"Congratulations! You've won!"

If I could stab this lovely human who does these voice-over ads I would.. Even if he wasn't wallhacking.

It happened to me also. It certainly gave me a reason to lose respect for those running this site. I have not used adblock for a few years now, maybe it is time to install it again.

 

[Fritzo]

Looks like some scammers got mixed into the banner ad provider

 

[BoomerD]

Posted a thread in "technical issues."

We'll see what the "great wizards" have to say.

I don't remember how long it's been since I ran an adblock program...looks like it might be time to do so again.

that thing started out lame, and is getting worse.

Same here.

The only website I had open was Anandtech. I sure as hell wasn't expecting a talking add. I'm glad to see it wasn't just me who got it. My first thought was "there's no way Anandtech allowing this add, I must have some Addware" Was just about to run MalwareBytes when i saw this thread.

I'm getting the voice now, but it keeps saying, "the babysitter just turned 18, you should try to bang her..."

Dude...not the voices from your dog...these come from the computer.

Learn the difference between the many voices and prosper.

I hate it for certain sites like anandtech, but I simply cannot allow ads for a variety of reasons. Even good sites get bad ads on occasion.
