Banners that make sound suck slimy green donkey dicks
 
My computer is hooked into my stereo system, an expensive, very powerful system that can shake my neighbor's windows. :D

So I'm sufing along listening to a very load Dave Seaman mix when all of a sudden some cheap ass sound effect comes blaring out of my speakers kicking in the overloads. |angry|

Does this make me go looking for the banner that made this sound? No it makes me just close all my browser windows before its next hideous sound effect so the only thing it does it make sure that I never see the banner.

Even when I'm not listening to music I'm usually on the phone doing business and the last thing I want a client to hear is "I've got the most exciting web site…" :(

I agree 100%, Nothing worse then PC's making sounds you are not wanting them to make, I HATE that, and 90% of the time I’m dead tired and just chilling when I hit one so it scares the crap outta me.

Now ESPN has commercials on them with sound, so when I go look for a score I get talking about crap I don't want to buy.

But I'm sure in the next year that's all we will see and hear... commercials everyone.

I agree they suck |lightsabe

DangerDave 2003-12-16 04:15 PM

100% agreed they suck... especially when it pops up while your listening to something else. |angry|

I have to agree. They do suck!

How about a gallery with a talking ad? Now this is some funny shit. I actually had this submitted to me.(took me a few minutes to find the url off my blacklist).

You need to open it in IE (doesn't work in netscape)

I fuckin' HATE those damned flash banners that have sound when you accidently mouseover them. I've got a pretty damned good speaker setup on my workstation too and it scares the living shit out of both me and Mishi when I mouseover one of those bastards.

My favorite is the old one (but a goodie) where the site goes "I have a secret website... so secret you have to press the letter Q" or whatever

Extreme John 2003-12-16 07:59 PM

Man 'o Man... grab the tissues, are we really crying about Sound in banners? Common now it shows that we are moving forward, Advertisments with sound on ESPN, Talking Banners, etc, this is all a wonderfull thing, it shows we are growing. |bananna|

Ramster 2003-12-16 11:06 PM

The biggest problem with banners with sound is those who work from home have to worry about their kids being nearby.

Oh yes, I liked those Fuck banners with their I have a web site so hot I can't show you, I can only talk about it...

Bell 2003-12-16 11:36 PM

what if. . .

what if on an accidental mouse over the sound all of a sudden - seemed to come from nowhere and it was a LOUD door knocking sound and then the voice of a stern man saying:
"Open up.. this is the police..."

Even though I've no reason to fear the police...
if that happened - I think I truely would have a heart attack and slump over into the floor... knocking down my work station... spilling my hot tea... and my large glass of water... probably choking to death as well on my favorite chewing gum the green package of the eclipse gum... the spearmint flavor... I'd probably break at least 2 of my long fingernails in the fall... and rug burn my knees... and maybe even pull my keyboard and mouse to the
floor right along with me...


the mouse pad (with flamingos on it ) would probably come to rest on my ass in the air...

so...

if that should ever happen... someone please... check my monitor... find the site that my browser window is resting on... and kick the shit out of that webmaster for moi... unlessin' of course it was something I did as a prank to pull on all of you all...


in that case...

nebbermind...

More than banners with sound I hate those sites that have some stupid midi file playing. Like Cleo, all our computers are switched to a powerful stereo set. I like to play music while working or surfing. If I don't work I often search sites that have info about old bands or artists whose old songs I have digitalised from old vinyl records. I want to read the bios and check discographies and I hate it if at the same time I have to listen some midi file. Usually they play LOUD - I have to shut my mp3 jukebox and edit volume...|pissed|

Extreme John 2003-12-17 01:48 AM

Bell your too damn funny...

Surfn 2003-12-17 02:12 AM

I use to hate those floating noisy things, their not around much anymore, I use to send a nuke to their server. |lightsabe

Sexhound developed them for their hosting. |raygun|

Ramster 2003-12-17 08:40 AM

finnbear, yes those too.

I've hit a few paysites with some guy or girl talking. Hate them!

finnbear 2003-12-17 09:05 AM

As we are talking about banners - I hate those banners that are normal size - 465x60 - but when you mouseover they open a BIG ad. I hate them!

cherrylula 2003-12-17 12:52 PM

Yeah it makes me definitely not want to promote sponsors using those lame sound banners.

ESPECIALLY the ones who use unlicensed sounds or song clips.

No doubt the same program owners would not approve of using stolen content to push their sites, yet they do it to us with audio banners.

Its sad that its almost 2004 and some adult webmasters still just can't follow basic rules of business. As in don't steal other's digital media.

SirMoby 2003-12-17 11:50 PM

How many times ahve you gone to check out a sponsor site and heard music, noice and chicks talking? These companies spent a lot of time on that but how many of you leave almost immediately if not sooner?

I know that when I hear the sould I go away pretty quickly. Great marketing isn't it?

DangerDave 2003-12-18 12:00 AM

Umm anyone notice the new AEBN banner.:(

Is it gone or am I just missing it in rotation. Scared me when I moused over it. I thought I was back on the farm.

finnbear 2003-12-18 12:45 AM

Imagine a Joe Surfer looking for porn, afraid that wife will wake up and caught him. Suddendly his computer blast a sound, some chick speaking dirty or music or anything. After heart attack, what will he do? Shut that page, and quick.

Chop Smith 2003-12-18 01:53 AM

Imagine Joe Surfer as wife is awaken and walks in to find him with his dick in his hand.
