What the heck?

Now I understand that websites aren't run on rainbows and sunshine, it takes cold hard cash to keep a site going. That said, what is up with these dang commercials before videos on GB? I can't stand these. When these guys first started doing ads on their site they promised the community, THEY PROMISED US, that they would never do an ad deal that was obnoxious. (Like other sites do, cough cough) I feel that this is a direct violation of this promise. Some of us get a bunch of videos buffering while we do sometihng else. This means that we start the video and pause it till the whole thing is loaded before we watch it. Otherwise, I could start a movie and aways into it I am interrupted with a loading video spot which is annoying. So this is a good work around for that. BUT with these little video ads infront of all the content, I can't do that. I instead have to wait until the 20 to 30 second ad is over before I can proceed to load my video. Maybe I am the only one who finds this annoying, but I doubt that. I don't mind if you plaster the front page with an ad, like you have done before, but please stop preloading all these ads infront of the good stuff.
