Remove the flashing Ads!
 
Those are fucking horrible. Strobing green light hurts.

I agree, they are a bit much.

Is there some sort of premium membership you can sign up for and not have to see the ads?

Strobing green light? Are you using IE, or Firefox without an ad blocker?

I see them too, and I am using Firefox w/ add blocker.

I almost had to bust out my glow sticks and trance out.

Use Firefox with Adblock Plus, CookieSafe, and NoScript. I have not seen an ad in over 2 years on any site I visit. It also keeps you safer (not safe, just safer) when you are visiting those other clothing optional sites.

There was a time a while back where people were complaining about a drive-by download on this site that was a trojan. People using IE were screwed. People using Firefox were fine. I didn't even know this site had ads until I heard people complaining about it.

There is also a growing movement from webmasters to try and deny anyone using the ad blocking add-ons from their site. That won't work either because there is an ad-on called User Agent Switcher for Firefox where it reports itself to be something else such as IE, the Googlebot, Opera, etc....
