Slow response are you having problems or too much advertising?

That is true, but I find that people who become pub members become more active members in the community, so thats a very good thing. :)
 
Burstnet does that to many sites their ads are on. But they are one of the biggest ad companies on the web. I have Burstnet block for that same reason... Slow, slow and slow. And unlike here, most sites don't offer a "Pub" membership to nuke the ads.

I use Firefox and AdBlock Plus. I don't know if it's a 2nd add-on or included with AdBlock, but they block *.burstnet.* by default. Explains why I haven't seen any slowdowns.
 
Unless they have the ads blocked... But someone on another mboard said the ads still pay even if they're blocked since the browser just keeps you from seeing them.

That sure sounds like what he said.... Non-pub members are exposed to more ads, therefore more revenue. And as noted, the $20 someone pays doesn't offset the "lost" ad revenue (?).

Adblock doesn't just hide the ads. It prevents them from being downloaded - thus the increased speed that people experience.
