Since I'm the one that started this thread, let me just add one last thought.

If, indeed, the "test" has concluded, I hope Renderosity's Marketing Team has learned what should have been obvious form the start. People hate pop-ups. I don't see them - or any other ads on the site - since I was forced to install Ad Block on ALL my browsers, on ALL my systems, including the mobile devices. Thanks to CHMedia for getting back to us, and to all who have posted regarding this "test." I truly hope it will never be repeated.

Everyone, stay safe out there. Hopefully this current madness will subside soon.
