Are ya'll talking about popups as in the Hun hates FlashCash for all of the exit consoles?

The reason I think I am confused is if you dlick the top banner as mentioned by Plateman, you can navigate all the way thru the tour and close the new window to go back to the free site. I did not get a popup on exit

Chop the banner does open a new window target= and thats what LL owners dont like..

I have a no excessive pop-up rule on my LL, which I dont want to list free sites that have them, there are some down right brutal ones out there.. and most of the submitters that submitt to me knows this and he thought that he missed one..

Some LL owners care only that there are none on the free site, but I care if the free site has sponsor links with brutal consoles.. So say a free site surfer finds a free site using platinum bucks and clicks on a banner, there consoles are a little excessive IMO and then he closes all of the shit out and says ok back to the LL and finds another free site with another brutal console sponsor and gets put through the ringer again, then by now he is pissed off and probably wont come back to my site or bookmark the free sites he surfed to maybe join later or next month when his other membership is up...

really If you think about it most tgps has there submitted galleries all console free and the ones that go to a tour can come back and not get lost in console hell.. and those surfers will bookmark and come back and surf tomarro..

take a LL that dont know or check the free site sponsor links and have your hard earned traffic and years worth of bookmarkers and run them through all the brutal consoles on free sites.. I wouldnt come back and go through that shit.. those consoles are wrote to get by the blockers.. sure some consoles are ok that get by my blocker, but anymore than 2 or 3 is the limit for me.. or 1 pop-under is ok..

another thing almost all my pay links are console free and my reason on that is - I want my daily surfers to not be put through the ringer when going back to my page and go to the next pay link and hopefully join before they run out of pay links

Pretty much a standard rule at most LLs - no new windows - I never really thought there was ever a question about that

As far as the no console thing - Im real tempted to add that to my rules - as first off I dont like them and have almost finished converting all of my links to no console - and with most sponsors outsourcing their console chains now - they dont have control over what their advertisers put in the consoles - or at least they dont monitor it

BTW - my sales have definitely increased with the changeover to no console and a lot more than the difference in payout numbers

Same here, I was getting sick of sponsors adding more consoles to the chain without informing the webmasters. I went ahead and changed majority of the links to no console and saw a great improvement

yup plus you can use that in your sale pitch - click here for a console free tour

some may say well most porn surfers have pop-up blockers, not all and the consoles are wrote to get by those with some sites...
