Good Lord, have you seen /. lately?

Not to take potshots at the "other site" but damn.

I had mostly stopped checking it because the comment signal-to-noise ratio had become so bad. But now they're running these giant floating ads that cover half the comment-text so you can't actually read them anyway.

    When /. changed ownership, they sent out a notification email about the change in conditions. I emailed Slashdot and told them to remove everything and never contact me. IIRC I checked to see if I could login about a month later and it didn't work.
