I agree that the blinking ads irritating ... but being a plus member I don't see them here. But I do see them on Pogo when I go to play games ... sometimes I put a sticky note on my monitor to cover them .. I am prone to migraine headaches.
Me too - I avoid sites that are too "busy" with banners/lights/jumbled pages. :nono:
:crazytongue:That said, today is VERY different from just 4 years ago, and if you don't adapt, you die - SA adapted with PLUS to pay the bills since ad revenue has all but dried up.
Because PLUS is better TOOLS, which Ken worked hard to create, instead of hiding the better sweeps behind a pay wall, it's a win win to me to become a member. :headbang:
I feel ya, but everything in life is a tradeoff. The present "something for nothing" "free lunch" political atmosphere notwithstanding! :crazytongue:

Haha. I kind of like the flashing. Reminds me of the psychedelic times. Although, I was not and am not a hippy. Not quite that old! :laughing: :crazytongue:
I could definately do without those neon flashing ads...look away from puter and its like someone took your picture! But, I'm still wondering if the money for PLUS is actually worth it.I like the way my sweeps are set up now,and I don't think that would help me enter any faster or win more.Still debating.
:wave: kcharlton - I think it is totally worth it - the fact that Ken listens to us members, and designs his programs with our suggestions ensures the tools will be sweeper-centric. The improvements he's made just since I joined in 2006 have been outstanding!
That makes it easier {IMO} to part with the $30 - that's what, about 8 cents a day? Anyway, Ken made the decision to ask members to pay for the tools he worked so hard on - and continues to work hard on - instead of "hiding" the best sweeps behind a pay wall.
If that doesn't encourage you to spring for PLUS, then consider that all IW's {except for snail only} are just listed in the IW category, but they can be daily/weekly/24hr/etc. With PLUS, you can create your own categories for those. No more searching!
Also, FB - Only PLUS members can save sweeps from the Facebook category to their My Sweepstakes.
With the explosion of sponsors utilizing Facebook for their promos, the Facebook category is THE best one {after IW's of course :crazytongue:} for a chance at daily/weekly/etc. prizes, and quite a few of them are daily entry.
I *really* like that any changes are ones I make and having everything in one place!
Contributing $30 a year to ensure SA stays up and running and remunerating Ken? Priceless. :headbang:
Not having to endure the ads/flashing banners? That's just the icing on the cake! :headbang:
