Survey for advertising to be seen by MLifers

[Jeffs Eleven]

Greg at this point your avatar is part of BPL. They should get rid of that feather mtn mess (or elephant lol) and use your avatar for the logo.

I love that quote

[Michael L]

I read bpl. 90% of the time on my phone. I can't get the damn ads hidden in here. This is annoying.

[BER —]

Yes, similar to the post above, I use my iPad to access BPL 90% of the time! and though I logged out and logged back in and hit the HIDE ADS on the pull down…they're still there.

And I still don't get any mLife emails.
In one respect I feel cheated by the whole mLife scam and promises broken by Mr. Jordan.
On the other hand, I feel relieved that I will never have to give him more money…until he changes that too…

[Justin Baker]

Fight the system.

Doesnt help me with an iPad

"Doesnt help me with an iPad"

Sure it does. There's an Adblock for iOS on the app store. I just downloaded it and installed it on my iPhone 5, seems to work just fine.

[BlackHatGuy]

Not sure this qualifies as lightweight, but here's an ad served to me this morning. Talk about a wake up call….

[Curtis B.]

Doug, are you feeling your age?

[Jeffs Eleven]

"we dont want young men, we want you" LOL

Ahh its gonna be a good day

Definitely NOT UL… sheesh… heeey, Ladies. Can I fit a bear can in there vertically?

[Ken Thompson]

Bear can suddenly has a new meaning,

Without us actually seeing the the survey results we have to hope that we are being told the truth.

I wonder how many said yes because they run ad block and this is a non issue for them, like me.

[Cayenne Redmonk]

You didn't get a copy of the survey results with your BPL financial update ?
You might want to ask an expert, or raise the issue at the annual strategic planning meeting. As a life member, you get free domestic shipping, maybe you need to order it from the store. You should get early access, and a discount on pre-ordering the survey results. In the meantime, look forward to the annual report and interim strategic planning updates. Have you completed the WTS class on completing your MLIFER benefits enrollment ? Its only $499.99 plus the flight and hotel. Its an essential part of getting access to all MLIFE has to offer.

The ads are gone….

Thanks everyone!

I had no idea this even existed.

[Anonymous]

Not for those who use a different OS with which Firefox is not compatible with. Well on the bright side, some of the adds are amusing.

[Justin Baker]

The adblock link defaulted to firefox when I went to the website because I'm running firefox. To the right of the "install for firefox" button there are a few small icons for other browsers.

or try using this link instead:

Doug,

I recognize at least two of those ladies as accomplished thru-hikers. I followed the blonde's blog as she hiked the CDT. Her blog profile states that her "likes" include Japanese single malt. You might consider chatting with them as see if they will join us at the GGG.

[Greg Mihalik]

I can see the Tabloid Headlines now —

"Urban BPL Hikers Stalked by Cougars"

[BlackHatGuy]

"Her blog profile states that her "likes" include Japanese single malt."

You made me laugh out loud! Thanks David!

Gotta get me some of that Yamazaki. Haven't had any in a bit.

[Anonymous]

Thanks Justin for the tip.
