    First off, with no membership fees, I can't really complain, PriusChat is a great resource. But anyway:

    Regarding the new ad, the one that appears in upper right corner of top posting on a page: is it too pushy? Sometimes they're moving from the outset, and will start playing, with sound, if you even mouse over a bit too slowly.

    With this one:

    If your mouse strays over the ad a bit too slow it triggers a pop-up that blankets the screen, has to be dismissed with a corner X.

    Thumbs down ;(

    i think everyone see's different ads in different locations, perhaps depending on software as well? i do find the one's that open when you brush over them to be aggravating. they are ubiquitous tho.

    We'll have a premium membership very soon that will allow you to have an ad-free experience for a small annual donation. If you're so inclined :)

    I already have a nearly ad free experience:D but would like to make a donation to the cause.

    Please consider offering the option of a lifetime donation at about 5 times the annual donation.
