I'm using AdShield and get no popups.

No game, either, but no popups.

To play the game you need to sign your name into the box. Not sure if the people at on this forum would be the same people that would like that game but lots of kids in my dorm play it so maybe some people will.

Yes it does. It pops up at least two pages, one of which tries to set itself to the user's home page when you close it. Yuck.

The point of this 'game' is to just get other people to sign up. That's it. Of course, the owner of the site gets plenty of ad impresions as well.

I figured it was a variation of pimp wars, which is a real game (and fun...)

So yah, delete the thread, it's a scam.

I don't think that's reason enough to delete a thread. Just warn others that there are popups and they can surf at they're own risk. It doesn't affect the board at all.

from their faq


4A. Spam
Spam your ref. link & you are gone from the game... simple enough?


ironic that the whole point is to spam your url to all your "friends".

Wow, that's a pretty neat annoying internet ad machine wrapped up in a multi-level marketing scheme wrapped in street slang to get all the ignorant 12 year olds involved. Good idea internet advertising guru guys!
