Denver Post and Rocky Mountain News Ads Annoying

I just want to say that they pop-over ads on the DenverPost.com and RockyMountainNews.com websites are quite annoying.

They are ads for Furniture Row and pop over the whole page.  The problem with the ads are that they have a close button, but it doesn’t work.  It is like they are teasing us.  I have also seen ads like this for Frontier Airlines.

I understand the need for newspapers to run ads on their sites, including pop-over ads.  But if they have a close button it should work.  I shouldn’t have to wait until it times out for the ad to close.

Don’t annoy us and we will come to your site.  If you annoy us, we will leave and your numbers will go down and so will your ads.
