Paying members of Amiga.org don't get this. It sure beats huge graphic banner Ads that have no relation whatsoever to the sites content.

Like Oldsmobile_Mike if this is a Ad feature you don't like on Amiga.org feel free to use an Ad Blocker. Amga.org has to generate revenue somehow and huge graphic banner Ads the have nothing to do with Amiga or the content of this site are even more annoying!

@SysAdmin - I am a lifetime member and a subscriber I still see the "VigLinks" but im quite used to them so it doesn't bother me at all.

Edit: Had to check if subscription still was active, paypal checks out that last payment to "DFX" was done the 3 days ago so yepp subscription is still active :)


I'll check your account for you.

Or just use other sites. EAB, AWN, MorphZone, aros-exec etc. There is rarely any content at a.org you cant find elsewhere.


Stay a while, stay forever.......

@cgutjahr

Your never satisfied with anything done on Amiga.org but your also unwilling to submit Amiga news links or do anything to improve the site. If I made Amiga.org shoot solid gold bars out of your computer when you visited the site you would still find something to compain about!

Why don't you adress the question I asked, instead of trying to label me a troll?

How much income does this perversion of an advertisement create?

Someone is being nosey.

The current owner (note the singular) is BillP, who claims to have been given amiga.org as a free gift from the (alleged) previous owner Tedd G_a_l_l_i_o_n.

He said that she said that he said that he was quoting what he allegedly said and knows what he intended. It's all documented on Amiga.org for anyone that wants to read it.

@SysAdmin

As a Lifetime member, I also see the viglink ads, something must be configured incorrectly.


How about now, do you still see them?
