We have all seen the ring tone adverts with Sweetie the chick and that sodding frog on them. Do you find ring tone ads useful, or do they drive you insane with annoyance.?? (Im voting for the 12 bore enema!) Last edited by Analoguesat; 23-04-2005 at 12:53 AM | ||

| I think the marketing technique is entirely wrong and they should be ashamed of themselves for enticing young children into contracts to drain funds from their top ups, and parents should take a more involved role in their kids activities. | ||

It seems that every other ad on the UK satellite channels is for assorted ringtones now. My current pet hate is that soddin dragon. I think roasting slowly over a hot fire would be suitable for him Sadly we dont have a roasting dragon smilie, so this one will have to do   Last edited by Analoguesat; 30-05-2005 at 09:08 PM | ||

The symptoms include Humming mindless tunes, constantly checking mobile phone, and having the Crazy Frog CD. In order to make a full recovery, many people go cold turkey, and use a traditional ring ring tone. Others simply succum to overexposure of ployphonics, and big businesses make a fortune out of these addicts. The only true cure is to mute the adverts on TV and throw your phone into the sea.
