He's not refusing to accept your report! He's saying that whatever problem you (and others) are seeing *he's not seeing it*. And, for that mater, neither am I. Why can't YOU accept THAT?

Why should I? Maybe I should expand that a bit. Adverts seem to bother a lot of people. They don't bother me at all- I can easily concentrate on what I need to see. -- Peter

I have to say, I don't get terribly distracted by ads. I just enable my brain's tunnel vision plug-in. And I've noticed that NoScript, for example, arguably makes the appearance of pages worse in many cases. But I do use NoScript because: (a) Pages tend to load much faster. Note: against that should be weighed the time spent unblocking stuff that needs to be seen. (b) It might improve security. I can't say with any certainty that it does or it doesn't - but it most definitely makes me feel better. |
