The Sky ad may cause a slight lag but not that much to disrupt the game, however, it seems to be disrupting your game a great deal... Having both pc's and macs in my experience, the mac is fine, macs of course are tons better than pc's. Unfortunately, the pc does have slight lag on the sky ad... Do you know how much memory your pc has, and weather you have the latest java? All these things can determin the display of ads and could cause lag! I would say try these and see how you get on, if not... Seriously, buy a mac....

Hope you manage to solve your problem mate!

PS: It may even be your network or service provider being slow as it was with me months ago!

As i'm sure we all know, the ads have to be here in order for the site to have funding and run. Nick has listened in the past with other adverts that gave a lot of us trouble(orange!) and hopefully he will again with this one!!

There have been several offers from members offering payment to get rid, maybe we could get together and offer all our coppers to nick to help!!

And on your other point madhatter, hopefully banning people for having a point of view is not what funkysnooker is all about and listening to its members is!!!

instead of moaning about the sky advert.....

just wait for premium to come out and then there will be no adverts so we can play perfectly to our leisure.
