Have your say & ask the experts

Andrew Everard:

Apparently a prob with Macs, in that you couldn't close the thing once it popped up, out or whatever...

 

Dunno whether it should be " Rabbit season" or " Wabbit season".

Takes me back a bit that picture.

Here is the screen of my netbook. 2 bunnies.

Clare Newsome:

I know, i know - using Netbook at home and being invaded. We're all going to have to be patient until Sunday evening, when I am assured it's bye bye Bunny. Future campaigns will be pre-screened

Just when I was becoming attached to the little carrot cruncher!

In typical British fashion I was just making my way to this part of the forum to complain about said bunny - after enduring him for a few days... I am gratified that I am not the only one and completely placated by this 'ere response... Whilst I understand that websites have to make money from advertising I hate these types of adverts.  Further to that sentiment I think that there is something rude about their invasive quality and have tried disabling them (in internet options, but then you lose other content) and they are usually counter productive since I am less likely to give money to the companies that bombard me with them...

Supply and demand, although I found the whole bunny thing slightly off putting at first. There is a balance to be had here, but finding that 'balance' may be harder to implement.

The batteries on my TV remote control have just gone on the blink. I will be using new ones from a company other than Duracell.

I understand they need to advertise...but EVERY page? I like to go in to the forum and open up lots of tabs from each thread I am interested in. Not surprisingly, I am interested in quite a few of them, so have quite a few tabs open...and then as I switch tabs my mouse moves over that ad each time and I am subjected to a bunny invasion on my web page.

Still, it's an interesting debate...do consumers make purchases based on subliminal advertising, brand awareness/affinity, corporate values, or is it, as in my case, the brand which has annoyed me least recently?

I thought the thing was meant to have gone by now

Got to love Firefox with adbloc plus I was wondering what all this bunny stuff was.

Now that i was bored and read the topic i know.
