WHO HERE IS DISGUSTED WITH THE RELOADING PAGES ???

Have you slowed or just nearly stopped coming here, either from windows or your phone?

I know that some of the admins might look at this as deconstructive critisism, but i think the owner of this site might like the honest feed back from his supporters.

As I posted in the other thread verbatim:

Its nausiating..
Ummm... How about you? I too am really annoyed by the constant ad reloading but posting in a thread wont help. Try contacting convergent (i think) and kindly expressing your displeasure. And being rude won't help, so slip him a nice PM. I encourage others to do the same.

yeah

i have found out nearly the hard way that i have to walk on eggshells.

I have been stupid in the past with my arrogant conclusions, even though i still come across as rude 1/2 the time.

I like the forum alot, i almost get nauseous with the clicking and reloading. Im not trying to be dramatic, i actually feel queezy right now, i think its the reloading ad on the right side that keeps pulling my right eye to it, while im trying to concentrate on either typing or reading, some how the clicking noise seems to exacerbate it.

I think the point is to draw your eye to the ad, right? You should probably leave that part out when you contact them to complain!

Good point. Lets revise that complaint:

"...and those reloading ads are extremely distracting. I often find myself looking at an ad with interest only to be shocked and disappointed as it reloads with a much less intriguing product..."

LOL what is this mutiny? if you guys/gals have any issues with the site, then send CONVERGENT an email. he welcomes feedback from the users of this site. his goal is not to make you stop coming here, but he needs to generate money to keep this site going. some of you may know how much it costs per month to host a site and bandwidth, etc.

in any event, send Convergent a respectable email and voice your concerns. if his users stop coming here then he is wasting his money and your time. constructive feedback from the users will help convergent decide what he needs to do to keep you guys happy.

Convergent is in the process of moving to another state so he has not been on the site as much as he has wanted, but he wants all of you to know that once he gets settled in he will indeed get the site back up to speed.
