In the past you said that you would never allow autoplay ads on the site.  The Wayfair ad does autoplay and, even worse, "expands" if you leave the cursor over it too long.

I'm not a supporting member and see that you've removed the "Site Support" sub-forum, maybe replacing it with the Supporting Members sub-forum, but thought you might want to know, since you said that "autoplay" would never be allowed on the site.

Hi @Zed Head  These ads are not autoplay ads, but, should have a buffer time so you can move your mouse away without it playing.  Simply put, you have some time to choose weather or not you want to see the ad.  Please let me know if it's automatically opening up without cursor movement and I'll submit a complaint to Google Adsense.  Autoplay ads will always pop up without your consent, and this I do not want on the site.

Thanks Mike.  That sounds almost logical except that you don't know that you have to move the mouse until the ad has already started.  I'm still calling it autoplay.  If I didn't click it I didn't make it play.  It's like getting charged for things in the store because you stood in front of them for too long.

Those ad guys are always finding a workaround aren't they?
