    Enough with the flash and adverts now please

    There is still a large number of people, myself included, that dont have broadband (not by choice!).

    Could you please stop using flash adverts on the forums. The one next to the quick reply box is most annoying and slows down my webbrowsing a lot.

    I cant use the Hexus front page any more because its so advert and flash-tastic. Has anyone at Hexus ever tried view the Hexus front page with dial up? It's just impossible.

    Sorry to complain! Keep up the good work

    They don't have to have flash ones on the forums though.

    They make trying to view the forums with a PDA fun too!

    We have to have whatever format our sponsors require us to support in order to generate revenue (within reason). I'm afraid the large proportion of people using the forums have broadband and we can't make changes to support a minority or we wouldn't get the adverts and wouldn't be able to provide a service at all.

    That being said, I work for an ISP and I'd be interested in knowing your postcode or area to see why you can't get broadband. Some broadband checkers don't tell you the full story . BT say I can't get broadband but I'm on 2.5Mb.

    Ok not to worry, just asking really.

    As for my broadband, you really dont want to go into it. Trust me, it's a long story.
