Congratulations, YOU WON!!!!!!

[the humanity]

I get this ad a lot.

It is one of the most annoying ads on UG.

It tells me I'm the 10,000th visitor (over a million people on this website, right? I'm a bit late I think)

And in a really loud voice that overpowers my music every time, it says that I won.

This has got to be a scam. Can we get rid of it, please?

Press the "Print Scrn" button next to F12. Then press "paste" in MS Paint or whatever.

am i the only one who didn't win:(

firefox + adblock plus....
i have never seen an ad on this site.
seriously, UG needs to make money, and there are ways to not experience ads, so stop whining.

It's not a popup, it's a banner ad.

Otherwise my adblock would be taking care of it.

Adblock does indeed take care of that, learn to use it correctly.

*Not that I'm encouraging Adblock though...

how come this answer is in at least 5 reports every page?

everybody doesn't have firefox and some of us doesn't want to, so stop coming with this kind of answer cause even if YOU can't see it because you have adblock, it's still a bad ad and shouldn't be on the site in the first place.

finally got it, had to use another computer to upload this.

[marchoso]

I think it's funny that Macbook users don't even know how to use their own computers properly.

- Press Command-Shift-3 all at once to take a screenshot of your entire screen. -

OR

- Press Command-Shift-4 all at once and select whatever portion of your display you'd like to capture in a screenshot. -

[the humanity]

ok. thanks.

[Toolfan11]

I had two of adds similar to this on the same page once, one of them said I was the 1,000,000th ten another said I was 10,000th

[lzcougarz3]

Was just gonna complain about this. Audio ads are the worst.

[the humanity]

ok, do something, it's driving me nuts.

please?

[SomeoneYouKnew]

everybody doesn't have firefox and some of us doesn't want toI'll agree with you about the bad ads still needing to be addressed.

But anyone who uses UG extensively should try Firefox.
It just works better with UG, all ways round.

Downloading free browsers = $0

Using browsers that work well with UG = Priceless.

please?Quit whining and follow the procedure.

The folks who run this site are busy people.
They do respond well when YOU do your part.
Whining solves nothing. Stop that.

I did this a while back, saw the ad earlier today, thought I'd throw out a memo that it was done.

and also, you could try being nice bro, you are a smart and very helpful guy, but you really should throw please or something in there.

[Jam3V]

Please make it stop! EVERY time I load a page.

Many browsers work just as well. I had Firefox and I didn't like it after a few weeks. Google Chrome works better, IMO, and I use UG as extensively as you can.

*important stuff*

Do that, but ask it better.

When someone comes on everyday, and the ad is as annoying as it is, and comes on EVERY SINGLE PAGE, people want something done about it. Point him in the right direction without the sass.
