SuperMod Vanity Thread

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

SuperMod Vanity Thread

Post by DB10GOONER »

Anyone else using a mobile to access and getting that fucking annoying video pop up on the bottom right of the screen on this forum?

Worse the fucking x button sits just offscreen so I can't close the bitch.

I have Samsung adblock installed and this is the first time I've ever seen this shit pop up.

Anyone name a good tried and tested additional adblock app I can install?

And no rodders pornhub is not an adblock app. :D

Yep, been getting that ad popping up for quite a while now. Very fucking irritating. Also been experiencing the slow response time on the site, that Gazzatt and others have mentioned.

I use mcafee livesafe, on laptop and phones, i don't get those pop ups or ads.

Although you have inspired me to convey a story of what happened when I last found my self looking for that fuckin "X " on the edge of a box.

PART ONE

Some years ago a mate of mine sent me an email with the headline something like "cctv footage of the Gerrard fight in the bar", the fucker then sent me a text saying "i cant open it, what was it like".

Well curiosity got the better of me so I opened it on my lap top in the dining room while my wife was in the kitchen preparing my tea.

I can only say that from what I remember when this box opened (about the quarter size of the screen) at first i burst out laughing,picture this.

It was a video of two gay guys, one is sitting on a chair (dining chair from recollection, probably from oak furniture world, I had that long to study it :roll: :lol: ) with the other guy sat on his lap cowboy style, while he was jumping up and down on his mates todger his balls would swing round in a circle :shock:

At the top of the box was a counter with the headline "GAY COUNTER ", so every time the guys balls did a circle the counter went up one.

I watched about 3 rotations just out of a perverted curiosity, I then thought I'd seen enough, it wasn't really doing anything for me although I admired their enthusiasm :lol:

So I tried to click the X, ok so the box moves and I missed it, thought it was my error so tried again and again and a-fuckin-gain, anyhow by now the counter is in the twenties :| :shock:

Well the missus has obviously seen some frantic mouse movement and decides to wander over and have a look, I got in first with "its not what you think baby, slim sent this link as a joke the idiot", she takes a look at it and says "oh my god", then giggles a little nervously and gives me a bit of a sideways glance.

Noticing this i retort "seriously i don't watch this shit", so she has another look and cottons on to the balls swinging and the counter, "well if thats true why is the counter now on 34?!!!" :| :lol:

Anyhow I show her that I'm trying to click the "X", just to try and salvage what dignity i had left :lol:

So eventually I think ctl alt del, hey presto I shut it down.

PART TWO

So what's a boy to do, I send it to everyone I know that I thought might find it funny.

Twenty minutes after sending it out I got rather rude texts calling me every name under the sun :shock: :lol:

First to call is my sister (I sent it to her husband), she was pissing herself laughing, they worked in their business office together and she has noticed him frantically moving his mouse and clicking like a lunatic :lol:

They also had a couple of others in the office and it was open plan so my sister wonders why the fuck he's suddenly placed his screen face down on his desk :lol:

He's then called an IT company :shock: :lol:

Of course by now other people are sending it on so its gone to a lot of desperate people.

I didn't realise just how bad it had gotten till I turned up at the local golf course on Friday afternoon to play the Stableford, this was the busiest day on the course.

Just about every fucker that was there had whinge and whine but me and my brother literally laughed the whole way round the golf course.

One guy called dodge (my brother in laws business partner, he was a roofer, pc illiterate) is on the tee when he notices me, "Chas", he says, "by the time that fuckin ball counter got to over a hundred I ended up calling out a guy from the local computer firm, he's taken one look at the screen and said"
"Each to their own fella" :lol:

Another guy , Sean, works at bewiser, he's sent it to all the guys in the office and said, "mate you've never seen so many pc screens suddenly go face down on the desk :lol: , I had to reset the servers to get rid of the thing". :lol:

A mate of mine who owns a car sales had to tell customers he had issues with the Internet because he couldn't get on his PC :lol:

Apparently I nearly caused 15 divorces while many a man now has a rep at home or work as being a pervert :lol: :barscarf:

Honestly I got blamed for it all but fuck me what a giggle in the bar afterwards.

Anyhow that's my story of the "X" Button :lol:

For one brief moment, I thought I was back in the 2008-2010 golden era of the forum when every thread ended in filth, more filth, accusations of homosexuality, accusations of attempted homosexuel grooming, even more filth, girlfriends getting sorted right out right up the front and back passages on holidays and occasionally mentioning football.
