RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by MessEnGer on 10-11-2004 at 07:40 PM personally I don't really think that it is offensive but do feel that it should be changed cause it might not be offensive but is kindda harsh like traxor said RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Johnny_Mac on 10-11-2004 at 07:50 PM
I dont. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by matty on 10-11-2004 at 07:52 PM The reason it is worded like that is to make his users aware that the agreement is not for the sponsor program. This way no one can complain that they didn't read it because if they click the first option another window opens up for them to agree to install the sponsor.

what he means is that that window is asking u if u ant to support. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Patchou on 10-11-2004 at 08:28 PM
haa...don't tell me the new wording is not good enough now. I did what everybody wanted me to do and I changed it so that the option is more obvious to anybody. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by _Humphreys on 10-11-2004 at 08:34 PM K done that it's just a little mis leading thats all I actually installed the toolbar once how stupid im not a n00b. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Bradl3y on 10-11-2004 at 10:27 PM
I'd be happy to install the sponsor if it wasnt obtrusive, but IMO, that sponsor is obtrusive, too bad you cant get a sponsor that changes the MSN Messenger ad to their own haha, that would be awesome, i'd love to support you in otherways, cept im just a lazy jobless 18 year old punk. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Patchou on 10-11-2004 at 11:05 PM lol... well, talking about intrusive.. I installed Kaza on avirtual station today to see what was happening and: OMG. NothingIcoulddo to try to remove all the ads worked, I tried to install Adaware and when it misteriously crashed, samething for SpyBot... Kazaa even changed some of the stuff of my own sponsor program. I really think somepeople should reconsider their opinion of lop.com being the worst thing available on the net. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Jeronimo on 10-11-2004 at 11:15 PM
I think the argument that lop.com is the worst sponsor out there is a silly one. No matter how many times you tell people, they do not seem to realise that you have worked closely with lop.com (or C2Media or whatever they are called!!) and have a heavily modified sponsor program.

RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Patchou on 10-12-2004 at 12:40 AM There are currently 5 versions available for download. RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup by Concord Dawn on 10-12-2004 at 01:44 AM I'd honestly go for Plus! installed 5 different times on my computer. Who wouldn't?

quote: Only 36? Pffttt! As I'm sure you will make the best descision you can based on user feedback, I'm behind you all the way, although I suggest on the "Installation Complete" screen, there be a dancing banana done with the Plus! symbol in the background.

I refuse aint that strong it makes it more obvious.. I Installed it the first time and clicked the ads just to support the program but i uninstalled it because it was annoying the hell out of me |
