I’ve never had to do this before ☹ but that Singapore Stopover ad has gotten on my last nerve. When am I ever going anywhere near Singapore? :mad: But I haven’t found where I can do my part as a good Doper.

Go to your user control panel (UserCP on the upper left), then down near the bottom on the left click on Paid Subscriptions. There is a drop down menu under Straight Dope Board Membership where you can select one or two year subscriptions. Click on Order, and follow the on-screen prompts.

If you so choose, you can also order a custom title from the same screen, for an additional fee.

I think you need a custom title. Let us know if you need suggestions. 😉

Jebus, the way it hogged the area around it from mouse clicks! There’s a video game one that’s worse. Click the wrong place, easy with a stylus, and the Dope explodes with color and sound. I’m not here for either.

Recently a giant Rupaul ad covered up content. Now I am dealing a giant Oreo peeps ad. Acckk. They have targeted the right chocolate eating demographic, them damn Russians have my number! I am waiting, with bated breath, on the surveys.
