I got two flash ads on auto-play, when I opened four tabs this morning (opened via the "Recent Posts" box on the front page).
System: Firefox 11 on Mac OS X 10.7.3.
Location: Germany.

It's getting better *sigh*... dual auto-play. I mean, come on! You can't be serious.
If you do not have any control about your advertising, you should change your advertising partner or whatever/wherever you get your ads from. It's just plain not acceptable.

Like I said in previous posts, I'm not against advertising. But I'm against these flash auto-playing nazis.
I'm getting one of the auto-playing ads every 5-10 threads I open. And this is a deal-breaker for me. So I don't think, I'll visit MMOC that often that I used to be anymore.
