  • OT Philly.com's autoplay videos

    This is my main source of Philly news since I was banished to the outer-lands of the DC beltway.

    They started an obnoxious auto-play video a couple of months ago. I complained and they "fixed" the problem by only having auto-play for ads.

    I just sent them feedback to tell them that I'm going elsewhere for my Philly news.

    If anyone else feels this way please send them feedback at http://www.philly.com/philly/about/feedback/

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the link GWE, I also am boycotting this unreasonable obnoxiousness, and haven't gone back to philly.com for a week or two now.

      I realize they need revenue but the less obnoxious way to do autorun videos is to turn the sound off by default.

      maybe you shoudl start a petition, gwe?

        They just need a couple of email and they'll cave in. You in?

          I've already sent them an email.

            Sent an email. Awful. For like a week I kept getting some rock music ad. I had enough.

                you know, it would be nice if people were to repost the philly.com articles here so others can avoid the autoplay....

                  Another board that I post on for MMA talk, actually has it as part of their ToS that it is required to post the article in a quote box with a link at the bottom.
