Penkoprod Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Is there/will there be a option to disable the newly arrived toolbar at the bottom of the page? Not just minmise it, but get rid of it altogether. It's just a bloody nuicance where it is Penkoprod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannarebirth Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Ditto. Don't want it at all. I've never let a "toolbar" encroach on my computer and I never will. Please, please, please, get rid of it. What do I need to do to opt out of it? i'll do anything, up to and including never visiting ThaiVisa again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rixalex Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Just noticed it and yes, it is annoying. Once you have minimized it, does it stay minimized or is it something you have to repeatedly close? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afp76 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) I don't see it. But I do however use Firefox with the addon NoScript to browse ThaiVisa. Edited May 13, 2011 by afp76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AleG Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 It slows down loading new pages, and to make things worse, it has pop ups if you happen to move your cursor over it. If there's something this forum doesn't need is even more clutter. What's worse is that it doesn't offer any significant utility so I don't see why have it at all. NoScript on Firefox can get rid of it, now I'm looking how to add NoScript to Google Chrome to get rid of the bar on my netbook. (I use Chrome in this machine) I posted about this yesterday and the post was vanished. I hope this one sticks around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semper Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Agreed, get rid of it, all it does is annoy me. Not sure about that. It is obviously generating some sort of cash flow to TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantilley Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 It can be minimised, which seems to be permanent, after which it doesn't annoy any more. It doesn't really seem to do much though, other than feed in tweets as far as I can tell...? Anyway, it doesn't bother me when it's safely minimised away.

opalhort Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I agree. Please get rid of the toolbar. Why not make it optional for people to install if they want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AleG Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 For those who have java script blockers, the thing to block is <URL Automatically Removed> It would affect other websites that use the same toolbar though.

There are other ways to generate income without forcing toolbars on users. Whoever came up with the idea, well, shame on you. Get rid of it ASAP.

wandrinstar Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Download I.E. Super Ad Blok,.That fixes it.Then add Visa in favorites, you cant enter the Forum once you use it.

lannarebirth Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) No, seriously, please ditch the toolbar. I have never and will never ever read a Twitter post. I once joined Facebook, had 150 friend requests including a girl who thought I migh be her father, So never going back to Facebook, ever. Ditch it, please!

Tywais Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 At least for me it gives more vertical space as the breaking news line is no longer at the top of the page. With it minimized it is barely noticeable now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 At least for me it gives more vertical space as the breaking news line is no longer at the top of the page. But you could do the same thing by buying a larger monitor, and that would be your own choice to make, this little abhorrent manifestation appeared without any notification and it didn't ask me if I wanted it or not...... and to be quite honest, since it appeared the reactions to it have been very negative. It serves no useful purpose for me, get rid of it permanently or at least give me the option to turn it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either via the toolbar itself, or the website preferences Some people might think its the dogs dangly bits, and so be it. But others (myself included) dont want, or need the imposition of a toolbar...even if it can be minimised to the right hand bottom corner. I have 2 desktop gadgets i keep there and its screwing them up. Also i dont fancy the idea of yet another Firefox/IE/Chrome add on that i will have to spend time "training". Or, for that matter being told what browser works best. Option, please :jap: Penkoprod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
