Default Pop-up nausea

I have this question. And it could just be me, but since we are the ones using the forums, I thought we might just possibly have some input on the pop-up window that appears every time I open WPW.

You see, I set my system to clear all temp files and cookies when I close my browser window. So every time I go to WPW, which could be several times a day, depending on my schedule, I have to close the pop-up window asking to join because it stops me from inputting my username and password.

In my personal opinion, with the newsletters from ientry.com offering the forums, the word of mouth created by the current users, the space available on the main page to place a sign-up offer, and the current inundation of pop-up killers provided by free software and ISP's, that the pop-up "sign-up" window has served its purpose and could go.

But that is just my opinion. Please don’t ban me for this… :o(

You still get the pop up if you have told it to remember you. I think I'll remove WPW from my allowed pop ups list.

Default Oops

Hmmm are the MVPs here having a mutiny on board S.S. WPW? Plotting to cast the dastardly Capt PopUp in the Sea of Infuriation? Aye me lads. It sure looks it.

My trusty sidekick Panicware PopUp Stopper foils Capt PopUps plans everytime.

Now I hadst better flee before those loyal to WPW make me walk the infamous plank to my watery grave.
