    The, blaring unstoppable, unmutable, ads that have started appearing are making the BigSoccer experience a nightmare.

    This is getting bad. That ********ing Olive Garden commercial is now playing every 3 out of every 4 pages I load. I am getting to the point where I might have to stop coming on here.

    "That movie was great. I know, I never wanted it to end." The pasta never ends in the Never Ending Pasta Bowl...

    And neither does the f*cking Olive Garden ad on Bigsoccer! Every time I view the Dynamo forum? Really?

    Can't mute your computer in the meantime? Sorry - it really is annoying.

    I don't want to experience an online business community. I come here to get away from that shit.

    I listen to audiobooks while I am at work and then all of a sudden I hear an ad for frickin' Olive Garden in the middle of the book.

    I can deal with pop-ups but I find ads with sound highly intrusive and disruptive.

    It's gone now, at least for me.

    Are you still getting it?

    Ah - got it. Yeah - it's not our policy to have audio ads that are passively activated and out of user control. Hopefully gone for good.

    The Marines video ad is popping up all the time for me. I respect the Marines, and all that, but this ad is really pissing me off.
