This sounds like the most amazing thing ever. Basically it's an online strategy game thing built by Chinese gold farmers out of loads of stolen intellectual property. It's marketed (by mass spamming of the internet) as a free game, but in practise you have to buy items from the game to do anything at all. For instance, upgrading a building past a certain point costs 50 cents. You can buy game cents at an exchange rate of 10 to 1, so that's actually 5 real life dollars. When you have set up a town in the game, the first thing to do is to raid one of the thousands of abandoned towns left by disgruntled players who gave up after an hour or so. |

In that case you should reverse your ratio there to avoid confusion. Also that sounds completely amazing. I wonder how stupid and naieve they assume people are. Stupid and naieve enough to pay people to earn WoW gold, I guess. |

Yes, I've seen a few evony ads about the place and they all basically feature lots and lots of tits. Can't really fault the strategy though. |

I wish all these evony ads would fuck off. There's nothing like somebody walking right behind you just as your small little resized explorer window is filled with a colossal pair of advertising ubbs. |

Is there a version of AdBlock for internet explorer? Sometimes WoV takes ages to load a page, and I'm sure the adverts are to blame. Ubbs or no ubbs. |

probably not http://adblockplus.org/blog/adblock-for-internet-explorer-is-not-an-option Though I use firefox or chrome and the ads don't affect my browsing speeds, so I doubt that is the reason. |

WoV is mega slow for me most of the time. I think it's either the avatars or the banners, due to the shitty forum software. RICK |

it quite often freezes at this point, just before the top advert ![]() and then does nothing for ages (like a couple of minutes or so) and then the rest of the page loads so shut your mouth Edited by iVom, Jul 21 2009, 08:38 AM.

Try using Safari or Chrome or something, Samuel. It's almost certainly the terrible browser you insist on using, why would you do that you crazy person etc? |

I would install firefox but I would have to go to absurdly complex means to circumvent the crazy software installion lockdown, and then I'd probably be fired immediately. into the sun. |

I'm sure that you can get a firefox that doesn't require installation... one minute and I'll find it. |
