Gah.
Yes, I understand that more obnoxious banners means more money faster and
presumably a shorter overall campaign. I also understand that we're only
punishing certain large wikis with these banners and that these banners
typically set a cookie so that they'll only appear once for most users.
Still, there's an element of basic human decency that must be
incorporated into our banner designs. Obscuring the page content is not
cool. Pop-ups (even ones that stay in the same window) are not cool.
