(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I thought that premium users didn't receive advertising. That was the case when I donated a few years ago. So why is it being forced upon us now?

Btw, there is a glitch in the NGU 4.0 theme. The top is cropped in Google Chrome (preventing certain actions).

Gamma Gamers is partnered with NGU. Secondly, NGU 4.0 theme is made for Chrome. You probably just have a shitty monitor. I hate to be a dick but seriously, why "bitch" because there is one ad on the theme?

and Hells, IE?

Plus server costs ect..


This isn't about NGU and money. This is about broken promises and glitches.

I wouldn't expect you to mind. You didn't donate to get rid of ads.

No, just no. Why bitch? You could say the same thing to geohot for jailbreaking the PS3, because Sony removed OtherOS. Advertised promises were broken by NGU... and Sony.

A decent answer, thank you Neal. Btw, "child of ngu 4.0" wasn't available when I made the thread.

Hardly a broken promise though is it? Its all about moving forward as a forum.

You've found a glitch. Report it to an Admin then?

Well, let's look at Outsider's You must login or register to view this content. about the benefits of donating shall we?

Well, donating should be just to help the site..... but, if you need incentives then I guess there can be some. Right now we only accept paypal.

Donating to Premium Member

It earns you an "Orange" username.
You recieve a custom user title.
Removes all advertisements.
Access to the premium forums.
Earn much more respect from myself and other staff.
5000 PM Box.
Access to other hacks and such in the future.
10% discount on all vBplaza items.
Chat Feature for Premiums.
Custom Modern Warfare 3 Theme.
Custom Battlefield 3 Theme.
Access to the premium download section


Yeah, I'd call it that a broken promise. You might say that the thread was made in 2008 and is no longer relevant, but until official notice that this benefit no longer applies, your opinion is irrelevant. Now, I can understand that the site wants to move forward, but it should respect past promises. Otherwise, your just sticking up a finger to the very people who helped keep this forum up by donating before these special advertisements and sponsorship's came to be.

Now about that glitch. I assume that senior management are on it seeing as Ownage has recognized the glitch. I would assume that he would have informed them.

I'm a premium member before I got Elite and staff. I don't see why you're putting up such a big fuss over an advert? Its an advert, no one is forcing you to click it at all? Don't like it change your theme to 'Child of NGU 4.0' if its such a big problem.

Yes the glitch members have shown us has been taken note and is getting fixed. Its an issue with a plugin.

I'm going to close this as you can just select another style.

On a side note though, this isn't really an advert, it's a competition hosted by one of our partners.. equally if we were holding a competition we would promote it within the website and I don't think there's any issues with that.

But regardless, as I said, we've left another style for Premiums & Elites to select and we did that since we enabled it.
