14 flags more for me! I can't wait!

BRONZE:
The first of our elite levels also triggers the code that removes ads from the discussion board*, the indicator requires at least:
300 posts, 300 stars, and 300 flags.

I still get ads with 300 flags

I just hit full Bronze Status yesterday with my 301st flag (300 still had ads). Have to say I'm liking it! Thanks for the reward, Skeptic! The noisy scary ads have been fairlly nonexistant as of late, but now I'll never know again....

...... So all i heard was something about "what's better? video game violence or real life violence?"

Considering your current location ...

That is quite a question to hear emanating from your P.C .

Many moons ago, I started a thread for precisely that purpose, so if you discover an ad you would like to never see (or hear) again on ATS, please let us know:

While it is true that the ads like the emoticon screaming HELLOOOO is extremely annoying, I think embedded ATS audio media that play by itself unexpectedly when you just open a thread is equally as annoying

I had a NASA guy once write to me from his work address at JSC NASA complaining about the x-file theme I had auto load on my website. Seems it caught him unaware and a little embarrassed at work viewing my site...

At three in the morning a loud audio file blasting at you without warning is not good for the heart. The first time it happened it took a while to determine the source

Case in point... this post is not at the top of the page... so...

I can imagine this feature being abused IMO
