This is a high paying ad, and we need a new server, so I'm allowing them to go temporarily. Sorry guys, but it's important.
However, there should still be a skip method.
There is a skip method. It's mostly just annoying to everyone but I'm okay with it if it helps the site a lot.

I guess that is more important. It's just that sometimes I think the computer froze, is all.

I got two of them yesterday. I thought it might have showed up again because of time zones, but then i got it twice again today, the first one with no skip button. http://i.imgur.com/zN5VX.png

Also I got the unskippable ad again today. It's also for Best Buy.

I get that myself on occasion and the only fix is a refresh (which honestly doesn't take but 2 or 3 seconds because my laptop's fast).

I use Firefox, and even when I used to have AdBlocker on, the ads still appeared so I must not've had the settings right. I don't have it on anymore after I heard that ads help the site.

Same here. When it tries to appear, the website glitches. So, AdBlock is off no matter what.

I get that full screen ad, and NOW A NEW STRETCH OUT AD right on top of the skip screen ad button.
Adblock this adblock that, not everyone has it and the issue should be addressed instead of us having to go our way to fix it.

Or you could just install Opera browser (is free) and then use right click and block on the annoying ads, while leaving intact the non annoying ones.

No, It is bad for site revenue. These Ads are how Dazz keeps the website up, Don't Block them.
Also yeah, Dazz, whatever company is giving you Best Buy Ads or Rift Ads is literally taking up the whole screen with a button that says "Close this advertisment" and a counter in the corner saying "This ad will end in something seconds" and it is rather obnoxious.
RE: Official "Advertisement Reporting" Topic - Dazz - 04-09-2011
And as I said earlier - They are incredibly well paying, and we need to buy a new server.
RE: Official "Advertisement Reporting" Topic - Garamonde - 04-09-2011
Starting today I've had this rollover ad for a game (can't remember ATM) and it kept stretching down when my mouse wasn't anywhere near it, and it even appeared with the BestBuy ad and covered up the skip button, so I had to refresh. :/
EDIT: If I find the ad again I'll take a pic.
