something pathetic about DA

Sun Jun 14, 2009, 1:18 AM
so I found out after having trouble with the DA message center, that DA are quite underhanded and sneaky about their advertising.
the message center would not clear. it would perpetually blink "saving" and never complete. and if you refresh, it's all back.

so what the underhanded ness? well I found out what was stopping it.

I use ADBLOCK plus to get rid of all the pesky ads floating around on websites.

and I found out that if you block any ONE of the ad frames around DA. then the message center will fail to update, if you unblock them all, then it will work like a charm.

DA COULD defend it's self by saying "oh but that was part of building the site, there was no way we can set up the page without that happening" but thats a dead lie. Ads on sites are slapped on AFTER all the hard work, it's in the code, you actully have to write MORE code inorder to tie ads into pages like they have. arg it annoys me so bad.
